He also developed a method of peeling coal balls using nitrocellulose.
Many of the paleobotanical materials owned by the University of Chicago's Walker Museum were provided by Noé, where he was also a curator of fossil plants.
He was also a research associate at the Field Museum of Natural History, where he assisted with their reconstruction of a Carboniferous forest.
