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. Potential Techniques for Krypton and Xenon Capture Processing and Storage in Solid Matrices

    SBC: SHINE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: C5641f

    Radioactive noble gases (i.e., krypton and xenon) are produced in significant quantities during the fission of nuclear material and pose a challenging problem for containment due to their inert nature. Delayed, temporary storage in combination with environmental dilution/release into the atmosphere has been one of the primary historical methods for dealing with radioactive noble gases. However, sh ...

  2. 11a Sustainable Recovery of Fuel Cell and Electrolyzer Materials

    SBC: TETRAMER TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: C5611a

    Renewable energy sources are experiencing a surge of growth due to rising power demand but suffer asynchronous production relative to societal needs. To balance the overproduction during low demand and underproduction during high demand, proton exchange membrane (PEM) based electrolyzers (capable of producing zero-carbon, green hydrogen) and fuel cells (for clean electricity generation and zero em ...

  3. 20c Polymer Composites with Enhanced Thermal Conductivity

    SBC: TETRAMER TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: C5620c

    Plastics (polymers) are used widely in energy, industry, and defense sectors due to their low cost and weight, processibility, and electrical insulation properties. Unfortunately, this class of materials is also thermally insulating, which restricts their usefulness in applications where heat is generated and has a direct effect on the performance (e.g. electronics and computing, LED lighting, hea ...

  4. High-resolution/high-precision PEM Quality Control

    SBC: RESONON, INC.            Topic: C5618h

    High-quality, defect free, and consistent thickness Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) films are required to ensure maximum efficiency and longevity over the life of hydrogen fuel cells or electrolyzers utilizing this technology. The current technologies of PEM film Quality Assurance (QA) and defect detection rely on human inspection, which can be subjective and labor intensive, or measurement technol ...

  5. 41f Development of a Continuous Cost Effective Kr Xe Capture Process for Nuclear Fuels Reprocessing

    SBC: TETRAMER TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: C5641f

    Nuclear energy is one of the most favorable and cheapest alternatives to fossil fuels, and it can be scaled up to meet global energy demands. The mass deployment of nuclear energy as a low-emissions source requires the reprocessing of used nuclear fuel to recover fissile materials and mitigate radioactive waste. A major concern with reprocessing used nuclear fuel is the release of gaseous radionuc ...

  6. Development of robust fully autonomous machine learning-based cloud processing for Infrared Cloud Imagers

    SBC: NWB SENSORS INC            Topic: C5326b

    Cloud cover is an important but poorly characterized component of current climate models. In particular, there is a need to detect and quantify cloud cover in a physically meaningful manner. This need has led to the development of infrared cloud imagers. This system uses long-wave infrared cameras to observe the thermal emission from the clouds and produces a measurement of spatially distributed c ...

  7. Waveguide-based squeezed light sources

    SBC: ADVR, INC.            Topic: C5305a

    Squeezed light sources are a critical component of continuous variable quantum networking and quantum computing systems. Periodically poled nonlinear optical waveguides are a promising technology for squeezed light sources due to high conversion efficiency, long interaction length, robust fiber coupling, and integration potential. While these waveguides are available commercially, they are not opt ...

  8. 18b MEMBRANES FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL ENERGY STORAGE APPLICATIONS – Polymeric membranes for solar fuels generators-Novel dense-PBI membranes for photoelectrochemical hydrogen production

    SBC: Greenway Energy LLC            Topic: C5318b

    Recent studies seem to suggest that distributed and semi-central hydrogen production systems have potential in the near to mid-term for small/medium scale market penetration. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting has been considered the ultimate method to produce hydrogen as well as other fuels, directly from solar radiation. The process is simple and has potential for high conversion efficie ...

  9. Topic 22b- Low-cost, high-performance hydrogen storage technology solutions for fossil-integrated energy storage systems

    SBC: Greenway Energy LLC            Topic: C5322b

    Co-location of energy storage with fossil fuel power plants helps to improve plant flexibility, promote efficient plant operations, and increase plant lifetime. Compared to battery storage, Hydrogen Energy Storage (HES) systems offer the advantages of potential lower cost, long cycle life and no self-discharge leading to long-term, seasonal storage of off-peak electricity. Two HES systems will be ...

  10. Fully Autonomous Omnidirectional Adaptive Robots for the Disinfection and Decontamination of Transit Assets

    SBC: ADVENT INNOVATIONS LTD CO            Topic: 21FT1

    Public transit is particularly vulnerable to disruption and shocks from pandemics due to the collective nature of its mobility. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought new needs to keep all facilities clean for the safety of people at all times. To prevent the spread of coronavirus through transit facilities, keeping surfaces disinfected is incredibly important. The aim of this project is to contribute ...
