Noyes Laboratory

Noyes Laboratory

Noyes Laboratory is a chemistry laboratory at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign that was established in 1902. When it was expanded in 1916 it housed the largest chemistry department in the United States. In 1939 the building was dedicated in honor of the influential U of I chemist William A. Noyes. It was designated a ACS National Historical Chemical Landmarks in recognition of the groundbreaking research that has been performed there over the last 100 years.
