Sustainea, an innovative company dedicated to manufacturing sustainable chemicals with a low-carbon footprint, is planning to invest $400 million in Lafayette, Indiana. In collaboration with local company Primient, who will supply corn-based dextrose precursors, Sustainea will convert this renewable feedstock into monoethylene glycol -- a key chemical intermediate used in everyday products from food containers to footwear.

Congratulations to Purdue University researchers across all campuses and academic disciplines. They have recently received 10 patents on their intellectual property from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Purdue University researchers have developed patent-pending one-dimensional boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) containing spin qubits, or spin defects.

Researchers in Purdue University’s College of Engineering have developed patent-pending single-photon 3D nanoprinting technology. It produces a higher throughput of complex, high-resolution nanostructures faster and less expensively than traditional laser-based 3D additive nanoprinting technologies.

Wavelogix, a manufacturer of novel, patented concrete strength sensors invented at Purdue University’s College of Engineering, has received a $999,910 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II grant from the National Science Foundation’s Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (TIP).
