We're Focused on the Future
Minnesota’s northern forests are facing a synergistic threat: invasive pests killing trees, hotter and drier climate increasing wildfire potential and those dead trees providing more and more fuel. NRRI is addressing this with a synergistic solution: turn that fire fuel into biochar and use it to enhance soils. Learn more
In Minnesota, we take sulfate seriously. Especially to protect sensitive wild rice habitat. To meet the state’s low sulfate standards, NRRI has developed multiple processes that can inexpensively reduce sulfate concentrations in a variety of wastewaters and for varying sulfate levels. Learn more
Purpose-Driven Research Initiatives
To meet our mission of delivering integrated research solutions, NRRI is focused on three strategic initiatives that address the challenges of Minnesota’s resource-based economy. These initiatives are bold and long-term efforts to create the economy of the future by incorporating diverse expertise across NRRI, the University system and with our partners.
