Description
Summary:The Synchrotron Catalysis Consortium (SCC) was funded and established in September 2005 at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). For more than a decade, the SCC was the first of its kind in the United States, with a mission to promote the utilization of synchrotron techniques for cutting-edge catalysis research under in-situ conditions. The consortium consists of three Principal Investigators (Jingguang Chen, Columbia University, Anatoly Frenkel, Stony Brook University/BNL, and Jose Rodriguez, BNL) and scientific staff member Nebojsa Marinkovic. The initial team also included Radoslav Adzic, BNL, and collaborators from academic, national, and industrial laboratories. During the first decade of its operations at three NSLS beamlines (X18A, X18B, and X19A) until the closing of NSLS on September 30, 2014, the primary goal of the SCC team was to provide assistance and to develop new sciences/techniques to the catalysis community...This report outlines a brief history, specifications, techniques, and training and outreach for the facility.
