Direct Conversion of Organic Municipal Solid Waste to Lipids using an Extremophilic Fungus
SBC: Sustainable Bioproducts LLC Topic: 13NCERC2The United States produces significant quantities of waste materials that are discarded. These wastes include organic components of municipal solid waste (MSW), biosolids from wastewater treatment plants and agricultural wastes. The release of these materials and their byproducts into the environment can have serious consequences, such as pollution of ground and surface water resources and spread ...

Atmospheric Characterization for Directed Energy Applications
SBC: Anasphere, Inc Topic: MDA12017Atmospheric refractive index fluctuations directly impact the propagation of laser beams through the atmosphere. A key parameter of interest to be directly acquired or derived from atmospheric measurements is the refractive index structure parameter CN2. Atmospheric refractive index, and therefore CN2, can theoretically be derived as a function of temperature, humidity, and pressure measurements ...

SHARE Under Uncertainty
SBC: 21ST CENTURY SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: MDA12T002In the GMD battlespace, it"s critical to rapidly ascertain specific identifying characteristics of a track so follow-on sensors can match the same track. Currently, sensors communicate track data with differing biases and uncertainties with little data-rich content and attempts to utilize track measurement information and target identification have not provided clear improvements; too little infor ...

MenuChoice:Nutrition Program for Community-based Group Homes for Persons with Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities
SBC: GOOD NUTRITION IDEAS, LLC Topic: 84133S1This project develops a nutrition program, MenuChoice©, for community-based group homes for persons with intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD). Adults with IDD experience poorer nutritional health and more nutrition-related secondary conditions than adults without disabilities. These conditions are preventable and modifiable through a safe, healthful diet, but multiple challenges precl ...

Low-Cost Integrated Valve/Injectors for Bipropellant Thrusters
SBC: BLAINE WRIGHT, INC. Topic: MDA05067The most significant hardware costs on a missile interceptor propulsion system are associated with the thrusters, for which there are typically four divert thrusters and four, six, or eight attitude control thrusters per interceptor. The largest contributor to the thruster cost is the integrated valve/injector. Integration of the valve and injector into a single body provides the benefits of low d ...
