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. Turbine Inlet Gas Temperature Measurement System

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF083260

    The Air Force is seeking new technology that will provide the means to accurately measure and monitor turbine inlet gas temperature in gas turbine engines, particularly in advanced engines operating at very high temperatures (>3,100 degree F). In Phase I of this program, Advanced Fuel Research, Inc. demonstrated that turbine inlet gas temperature can be determined from non-intrusive measurements ...

  2. Advanced Methods for Predicting 3D Unsteady Flows Around Wind Turbines

    SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC            Topic: 39a

    Wind power has an important role in satisfying the power needs of the United States. Since wind power is a clean renewable source of energy, it also serves an important role in reducing dependence on fossil fuels, in particular foreign oil supplies, as well as reducing greenhouse gas and carbon emissions. Unfortunately, significant maintenance costs, recently highlighted by a series of blade failu ...

  3. Energy Harvesting for Efficient Power Generation

    SBC: CRYSTAL GENESIS, LLC            Topic: AF093184

    Recent examples of very efficient thermal to electrical energy conversion over small temperature ranges near room temperature suggest that pyroelectric/thermodielectric energy conversion has the potential to far exceed any other alternative energy scavenging approach. Efficient pyroelectric/thermodielectric energy conversion could be made practical if materials with the appropriate properties wer ...

  4. Laser Beacon for Identification, Friend or Foe (IFF) and Combat Identification

    SBC: Diffraction, Ltd            Topic: AF093100

    The proposed multi-spectral IFF beacon will use 40 to 50 % effient high power laser diodes at 863, 1064, and 1550 nm wavelengths. Thermal emitters including diamond-like carbon thin films, photonic crystals, and quantum cascade lasers will be characterized and compared. Finally a model to predict the detection range of IFF beacons will be developed using proprietary emitter power and atmospheric ...

  5. Multispectral Desert Fauna Surveillance and Recognition System

    SBC: DSPCon            Topic: AF093222

    DSPCon is proposing a new fauna population monitoring system that will automate much of the data collection and analysis processes and increase the frequency with which the animal population can be monitored. This system, called the Automated Animal Population Monitoring System (AAPMS), will enable wildlife management personnel to accurately monitor the population of fauna within the region of in ...

  6. Improved Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) System

    SBC: Embedded Systems, LLC            Topic: AF093174

    The continuing demand for improving the capabilities of Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) systems while reducing their size, weight and cooling requirements has led to investigations of alternate architectures and electronic devices for the next generation of advanced propulsion systems. The feasibility of using available Silicon On Insulator (SOI) technology devices that can operate i ...

  7. Thermochemically Integrated Solid State Hydrogen Separator and Compressor

    SBC: FuelCell Energy, Inc.            Topic: 12d

    With the depletion of fossil fuel reserves, hydrogen-based energy is becoming increasingly significant. Production, purification and compression of hydrogen represent key technical challenges. Hydrogen is most commonly produced from steam methane reformers, by gasification or as a refining or chemical system off-gas. All of these production systems require purification and compression steps and ...

  8. Multifunctional Catalyst for Coal and Biomass to Liquids Process

    SBC: Exelus, Inc.            Topic: 26b

    The US has abundant coal resources, but their use is constrained by excessive carbon emissions and inefficient technologies to convert them into more useful liquid transportation fuels. Co-gasification of coal and biomass is considered as a potential solution to these problems, providing a new fuel base for future energy needs. A very promising approach is to combine gasification of coal and bioma ...

  9. Catalytic Processing of Biomass to Liquid Fuels

    SBC: Exelus, Inc.            Topic: 13b

    The U.S. has abundant biomass resources and with the right technology, has the potential to convert these renewable resources into valuable industrial products and bio-fuels. However, current high temperature thermochemical processes to convert renewable feedstocks to fuels or chemicals such as pyrolysis and gasification or low temperature enzymatic processes are simply not cost-competitive with ...

  10. Low temperature oxidation of alkanes to alcohols

    SBC: Exelus, Inc.            Topic: 11a

    This SBIR Phase I project addresses the long-standing need for catalytic methods to selectively oxidize light paraffins, especially methane, to commodity alcohols like methanol using air. The goal is to create a complete, sustainable, and cost-effective technology that converts abundant, low-quality natural gas into methanol using a practical, low-temperature route. The proposed technology represe ...
