systems are grounded in principles of recirculation \u2013 both fresh water and saltwater.&nbsp; Without support from both the University of Maine\u2019s Advanced Structures and Composites Center \\ and the US Department of Energy\u2019s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), half of MRF\u2019s business model would be unattainable.&nbsp; The ASCC and ORNL have been a fundamental part of bringing MRF\u2019s R&amp;D to the next level.&nbsp; Their support, whether it took the form of engineering consultation, design advice, or most importantly, additive manufacturing capacity was instrumental in developing and proving MRF\u2019s prototype systems.&nbsp; The staff is also an absolute pleasure to work with.&nbsp; MRF looks forward to working with both partners in the coming years to refine and
