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. Ultramafic Tailings Leaching and Lateritization with Electrolytic Acid Recycling for Critical Metal Recovery and Enhanced Mineral Carbonation

    SBC: Travertine Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 1

    Ultramafic rocks host two resources that are key to avoiding catastrophic climate warming: (1) elements essential for mineral carbonation with gigatonne-scale carbon dioxide removal and sequestration (CDRS) potential, and (2) first-row transition elements including nickel and cobalt that are critical for the renewable energy transition. These elements are chemically bound within solid mineral phas ...

  3. DESTRUCTION OF VAM USING A MODULAR CATALYTIC ELEMENT SYSTEM

    SBC: PRECISION COMBUSTION, INC.            Topic: NA

    To eliminate the release of ventilation air methane (VAM) associated with coal production, the core challenge is how to oxidize methane given the low concentrations. Precision Combustion, Inc. (PCI) proposes an innovative modular array combining three key elements: (1) short contact time, low thermal mass reactor design to achieve maximal total conversion in a small volume, (2) catalyst formulati ...

  9. Functional Engineering of a Photosynthetic Desalination Pump Circuit

    SBC: Phytodetectors, Inc.            Topic: G

    Phytodetectors will design and engineer a synthetic biological pump circuit to increase the volume of water produced via photosynthetic desalination. This project builds off previous technology designed by Phytodetectors: a mangrove-inspired ultra-filter that allows plants to purify salt water as well as secrete water with properties comparable to bottled water. The partnership seeks to demonstrat ...
