IBM System Storage Ideas Portal


This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM System Storage products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).


Shape the future of IBM!

We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Search existing ideas

Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,

Post your ideas

  1. Post an idea.

  2. Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.

  3. Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

PCET Quantum-Tunneling Electrospun Nanofiber Scaffolds for Catalytic Conversion

PROBLEM: Catalytic nanofiber mats can disperse a biosorbent catalyst through an open pore network, but conversion may wait on coupled proton–electron delivery inside the fibers. If tunneling carries that delivery in the cold, a mat tested only at room temperature will mislead operators about winter performance. Teams also lose track of which fiber recipe produced which conversion record when mats are remade.

SOLUTION: Storage Copy Data Management would preserve versioned copies of PCET nanofiber catalytic designs, keeping each fiber recipe, biosorbent loading, and test-temperature record as a governed copy. A revised mat would create a new copy rather than overwriting the old one, so cold-weather behaviour can be compared across builds. It manages design history, not conversion yield.

EVIDENCE BASIS: DOCUMENTED — PCET describes coupled proton and electron movement, with quantum tunneling at low temperature; electrospun scaffolds provide high-surface-area fiber mats; DFT and batch isotherms underpin biosorption validation.
