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. Standard Inline Non-destructive Determination of Prepreg Resin Impregnation Level

    SBC: NOKOMIS INC            Topic: AF141165

    ABSTRACT: The Level of Impregnation (LOI) of resin in prepregged composite materials is critical to the quality and performance of finished Out-Of-Autoclave (OOA) composites.The widespread transition to OOA composites is reliant upon consistent material manufacture, which is jeopardized by the lack of a test methodology capable of accurately measuring LOI.Test techniques currently in practice are ...

  2. Solar Thermal Assisted Vacuum Freezing Desalination of Seawater at the Triple Point

    SBC: ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: 09

    A spray vacuum freezing desalination process is proposed to meet the required seawater desalination cost, with water subcooling suppression at freezing. The cost of the proposed desalination method is low, with low energy requirement and minimum carbon emission. General statement of how this problem is being addressed: Nucleating agents will be used to suppress subcooling of freezing the sprayed s ...

  3. Rational Tailoring of Enzymes Stability and Performance via Polymer-Based Protein Engineering

    SBC: BioHybrid Solutions LLC            Topic: 09

    An increasingly developed global population necessitates an increased demand for inexpensive energy, which must be clean, efficient, and renewable in order to prevent adverse effects on future resources and the climate. Biodiesel has emerged as a renewably-produced, potentially carbon-neutral hydrocarbon, making it an attractive alternative to conventionally-obtained fossil fuels. Nevertheless, st ...

  4. Thru-Wall Data and Power Transmission System for Monitoring Nuclear Waste Storage Cask Internals

    SBC: CM TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION            Topic: 31

    The development of a permanent national repository for storing the spent nuclear fuel generated by our nuclear power plants has taken longer than initially predicted by the US DoE. As a result, the licensees have been required to keep their spent fuel in the spent fuel pools or in an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The ISFSI contents are externally monitored for changes, but t ...

  7. Improving Efficiency and Reducing Costs for the Supercritical C02 Design Process

    SBC: Concepts NREC, LLC            Topic: 18

    Supercritical CO2 cycles have the potential to significantly improve efficiency and reduce emissions in power generation. However, the unique fluid dynamic properties of supercritical CO2 that enable these higher efficiencies also complicate the design and layout of the system, particularly its turbomachinery components. The problem stems specifically from the highly non-linear properties of CO2, ...

  10. Low mass, modular, river hydrokinetic system

    SBC: OCEAN RENEWABLE POWER CO INC            Topic: 15

    Ocean Renewable Power Company has developed hydrokinetic technology and projects that are at present commercially viable in isolated communities with high cost of energy. These project sites are typically remote, rural communities in Alaska, which obtain all their electricity from diesel microgrids. Alaska contains 40% of the US river energy resource, and the largest recoverable river hydrokinetic ...
