Improving Performance of Supercritical CO2 in Next-Generation Energy Applications with 3D Metal Printing

Mohawk Innovative Technology, Inc. (MITI) co-founders Jim Walton, M.E., and Hooshang Heshmat, Ph.D., merged their aerospace and metallurgical expertise in 1994 to form a thriving design engineering business in the Mohawk Valley region of upstate New York near Albany. They’ve become leading authorities in a paradigm-shifting, oil-free bearing technology incorporated into sophisticated components for energy, power, defense, aerospace, and other industries. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the Air Force Research Laboratory, DARPA — and even heart-implant researchers — have all partnered with Mohawk for pump, combustion, impeller, and condenser projects based on proprietary designs.
