Integrated Characterization and Modeling of Subsurface Properties Critical to Geothermal Energy Storage in Sedimentary Reservoirs
SBC: NEW ENGLAND RESEARCH, INC. Topic: C5513aC55-13a-270397To date, no integrated characterization and predictive modeling workflow has been proposed to optimize Geothermal Battery Energy Storage (GBES) systems in sedimentary formations. Of particular concern is the near wellbore formation integrity of GBES systems that are subject to Thermal-Hydraulic-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) loading conditions: during injection, storage, and production c ...

Pigeon- An Urban Atmospheric LiDAR
SBC: MICHIGAN AEROSPACE CORP Topic: C5516aUrban atmospheres need altitude resolved information about aerosols and winds. Measurements of these parameters in urban settings is difficult due to how quickly winds and aerosols change in space in time in congested urban settings. To enable measurements of winds and aerosols in urban atmospheres Michigan Aerospace Corporation is proposing a Phase I effort to develop and test an atmospheric Ligh ...

Diamond Rheometer for the Measurement of High-Temperature Molten Salts
SBC: GREAT LAKES CRYSTAL TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: C5512cSmall, modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) offer the promise of reliable, base-load energy that is not dependent on weather. Currently, around a dozen nations have programs to develop and deploy MSRs. Challenges to the deployment of MSRs are due primarily to the corrosive and dynamic molten salt. For safe operation of the reactor it is paramount to accurately monitorandcontrolthemoltensalt properties. ...

E4S: Extreme-Scale Scientific Software Stack for Commercial Clouds
SBC: PARATOOLS, INC Topic: C5302bC53-02b-271168The software used in High Performance Computing (HPC) and ArtificialIntelligence/MachineLearning (AI/ML) workloads is increasingly complex to maintain, install, and optimize. More problematic is the poor performance portability of applications between platforms, forcing site-specific re-engineering of codes. Existing solutions to deployment of AI/ML work?ows on commercial cloud envir ...

Engineered Enzymes for Polyurethane Recycling
SBC: Birch Biosciences, LLC Topic: C5331aC53-31a-271169Significant technical innovations are needed to improve the economics of plastic recycling. Plastic recycling rates in the United States have been stagnant for more than a decade: less than 10% of plastics are currently recycled, and only 5.5% of polyurethane plastics are recycled. Plastics have become a major contributor to global warming, as emissions from global plastics productio ...

Dielectrophoresis-Enhanced Capture of Metal Cations in Produced Water
SBC: SCION PLASMA LLC Topic: C5628bApproximately 21 billion barrels of produced water are generated each year in the United States. A lot of produced waters contain significant concentrations of sodium, magnesium, calcium, and other cations. A sufficient treatment will not only harvest the metals, but also provide freshwater for irrigation, municipal demands, mining, livestock, and manufacturing. The currently mature technologies f ...

Li-ion Batteries with 3-D Structured Anodes to Minimize Inactive Materials and Improve Safety
SBC: ARBOR BATTERIES LLC Topic: C5612aIn order to accelerate widespread electric vehicle adoption, improving battery energy densities, charge rates, manufacturing costs, and safety is imperative. Herein, we propose a scalable manufacturing process to improve LIB cell design using 3-D electrode architectures which will minimize inactive material (30% decrease) leading to a 15% increase in cell energy density (330 Wh/kg) and a 10% decre ...

Design and prototyping of a novel lightweight wave energy converter (WEC) for marine energy harvesting and self-powered marine monitoring
SBC: 4D MAKER, LLC Topic: C5614dThis project will develop and prototype a new class of lightweight, high-performance wave energy converters for short-duration deployment and installation in smaller-scale applications. It is anticipated that the size of the wave energy converter will be in meter or submeter scale, the weight is in kilogram level or less, while the output power will be 5~10 W/m3 or 50~100 mW/kg. The novel energy h ...

A Cost-Effective 3D Wildlife Tracking System
SBC: WILDLIFE IMAGING SYSTEMS LLC Topic: C5617aThere are many issues that a wind developer must consider when siting a wind project, but one that has become increasingly pressing in the U.S. is the effect of turbines on local wildlife. New onshore wind development is occurring across the entire the U.S. and has brought wind plants into greater conflict with wildlife, especially bats. The burgeoning U.S. offshore wind industry is also contendin ...

Ruggedized, Turn-key Sensing Package for AZMI Pressure Monitoring
SBC: AIRFLOW SCIENCES CORP Topic: C5625eC56-25e-272785The emission of carbon dioxide gases from industrial facilities can be harmful to the environment and contribute to global warming. By using existing technologies to capture and store these gases in deep underground reservoirs, industry can meet emissions goals while still satisfying energy demand. To ensure permanence and prevent environmental impact, the carbon dioxide storage site ...
