The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Miniature and Reliale Chemical Sensors for Cell Phones

    SBC: SYNKERA TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: HSB081002

    In the event of a terrorist attack, the ability to measure the extent and location of the attack and rapidly notify first responders will be critical to saving lives. If the widespread use of cell phones could be harnessed with an ability to detect chemical threats and immediately notify authorities of the scope and location of the attack, public safety would be significantly enhanced. Synkera pro ...

  3. Process-intensified Low-Cost Biodiesel Production using Meat Rendering Waste, Greases, and Food Wastes

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Biodiesel is a fuel that is made by processing vegetable oil or animal fats into a liquid fuel that can be combusted in a standard, unmodified diesel engine. The use of biodiesel reduces CO2 emissions by over 80% compared to petroleum and it reduces our dependence on foreign oil while promoting economic opportunities in rural America. When biodiesel is made from low-cost waste oils or fats the e ...

  5. EMULSION LIQUID MEMBRANE EXTRACTION OF PHENOLICS FROM INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATERS

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS ARE THE PRIMARY WASTEWATER TREATMENT CHALLENGE FOUND IN THE AQUEOUS EFFUENTS FROM PETROLEUM REFINERIES, COAL CONVERSION PROCESSES, PETROCHEMICAL PRODUCTION, AND THE MANUFACTURE OF PHENOLS AND RELATED CHEMICALS. EMULSION LIQUID MEMBRANE (ELM) SEPARATIONS ARE ADEVELOPING TECHNOLOGY WITH HIGH POTENTIAL FOR COST-EFFECTIVEREMOVAL AND RECOVERY OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS. UNLIKE CURRENT TRE ...

  6. ON-BOARD GENERATION IGNITION IMPROVERS FOR METHANOL DIESELS

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    METHANOL FUELED DIESELS ARE AN ATTRACTIVE MEANS OF MEETING STRINGENT 1994 DIESEL PARTICULATE STANDARDS, AND ARE A TOPICOF INTENSE INDUSTRIAL INTEREST. UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE OF METHANOL'S AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE IS HIGH AND ITS IGNITIONDELAY IS LONG, SOME MEANS OF IMPROVING ITS IGNITION IS REQUIRED IF IT IS TO BE USED IN A DIESEL ENGINE. THE BEST CURRENT METHOD, USE OF HIGH EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULAT ...

  7. APPLICATION OF PULSE COMBUSTION IN SOLID AND HAZARDOUS WASTE INCINERATION

    SBC: Sonotech Inc.            Topic: N/A

    THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY IS TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THE PERFORMANCE OF INCINERATORS CAN BE IMPROVED BY RETROFITTING THEM WITH A PULSE COMBUSTER WHICH WILL EXCITE ACOUSTIC PULSATIONS WITHIN THE SYSTEM. BASED UPON EVIDENCE PROVIDED BY RELATED STUDIES, THESE PULSATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE THE MIXING RATE BETWEEN THE FUEL AND OXIDIZER, ANDTHE BURN RATE OF WASTE; IMPROVEMENTS WHICH ARE EXPECTED TO ...

  8. QUANTIFICATION OF CONSERVATISMS IN SEISMIC RISK ESTIMATES THROUGH ENGINEERING ADVANCEMENT OF SEISMIC PRA

    SBC: Risk Engineering Inc.            Topic: N/A

    SIGNIFICANT CONSERVATISM IN MODERN SEISMIC PRA DERIVES FROM SIMPLIFICATIONS IN GROUND-MOTION CHARACTERIZATION AT THE INTERFACE OF SEISMIC HAZARD AND FRAGILITY METHODOLOGIES. THIS CONSERVATISM ARISES BECAUSE A SINGLE COMPOSITE-MAGNITUDE, BROAD-BAND, GROUND-MOTION SPECTRUM IS USED TO DERIVE FRAGILITY FUNCTIONS, WHEREAS THE MAJORITY OF MOTIONS CONTRIBUTING TO SITE HAZARD HAVE (LESS-DAMAGING) NARROW-B ...

  9. Helmet-Mounted Thermal Sensor for First Responder Burn-Saver Device

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: HSB0131003

    The personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by firefighters (turnout Gear, SCBA, helmet, etc.) protects the wearer against burns and hazardous environments. Unfortunately, they work so well that they decrease the firefighter's situational awareness, in particular their ability to notice rapidly increasing temperatures. Although current thermal sensor technologies (generally built in to the Pers ...

  10. Wearable Smart Chemical Sensors

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: HSB0171006

    Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs) are chemical substances that produce toxic effects if given in sufficient quantities and/or exposed for long durations. TICs are a great concern for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) since it would be easier for terrorists to obtain and use than CAs. There are many commercially available handheld and personal gas monitors to monitor TICs. However, the ...
