Secat Affiliates: National Laboratories

To supplement its own resources for research and testing, Secat is working with the Department of Energy National Laboratories to bring these national intellectual treasures to U.S. aluminum companies, enabling them to compete in the global market.

Secat currently has Memoranda of Understanding and Work for Others agreements in place with selected National Laboratories, covering both intellectual property and business arrangements. These laboratories have been identified as having specific equipment and staff expertise of value to the aluminum industry. This enables Secat's customers to access the extensive, sometimes one-of-a-kind capabilities of these labs for both proprietary and non-proprietary work.

Currently, three National Labs are actively involved in joint activities with Secat:

Albany Research Center

To provide stewardship for the Nation's mineral resources by conserving materials produced from minerals.
Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne National Laboratory is one of the U.S. Department of Energy's largest research centers. It is also the nation's first national laboratory, chartered in 1946.
Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) conducts basic and applied research and development to create scientific knowledge and technological solutions that strengthen the nation's leadership in key areas of science.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

The Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNL) applys their capabilities to meet selected environmental, energy, health and national security objectives, strengthen the economy, and support the education of future scientists and engineers.
