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. Develop an electrified technology for non-potable reuse of septic tank effluent

    SBC: J-TECH LLC            Topic: 1A

    Septic systems, widely used by >25% of U.S. households, represent a 6-billion-dollar market with a 5-7% projected growth rate. There is growing interest in non-potable reuse of septic tank effluent, yet existing disinfection methods are either costly (e.g., UV) or require households to handle hazardous chemicals (e.g., chlorine tablets). This project will validate a promising septic tank technolog ...

  2. A high-speed, low cost, machine learning enhanced, hyperspectral imaging system for improved identification of microplastics

    SBC: SPORIAN MICROSYSTEMS, INC            Topic: 1B

    Microplastics are environmental pollutants ubiquitous in marine and freshwater environments and have been established to have deleterious impacts on aquatic life and human health. Preventing Microplastics from getting into waterways or removing it once it is there, is the mission of EPA’s Trash Free Waters program and, as the production of plastics continues to grow, EPA is looking for innovativ ...

  3. Robotic, Artificial intelligence (AI) Powered Trash System for Facility Sorting and Auditing Waste and Educating Transient Populations

    SBC: CLEANROBOTICS            Topic: 4B

    CleanRobotics has developed a robotic, artificial intelligence (AI) powered system, called TrashBot, for sorting and auditing recycling, landfill, and compost from facilities with transient populations. Our system has the unique capability of ensuring proper waste sorting of up to four waste streams with the added cost reduction of eliminating user intervention. Discarding waste becomes an educati ...

  4. Metal Organic Frameworks for Low‐Cost Radon Mitigation

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 2E

    Exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, resulting in about 21,000 deaths annually. This exposure is due to accumulation of radon in the soils below homes and subsequent diffusion or convection into our living spaces. TDA Research, Inc., (TDA) proposes to develop a novel low‐cost radon mitigation system, using a state‐of‐the‐art metal‐organic fra ...

  5. A New Photo‐catalyst Based Air Treatment System to Reduce the Risks from Transmission of Viruses and Bacteria

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 3A

    Treating the air in common, high traffic areas to eliminate biological contaminants (e.g., virus, bacteria, fungus) could reduce the transmission of airborne diseases. UV germicidal irradiation has been shown to inactivate all types of microorganisms including drug‐sensitive and multi‐drug‐resistant bacteria and different viral strains. TDA Research, in collaboration with Arizona State Unive ...

  6. Automated Waste Sorting at the Point of Disposal

    SBC: CLEANROBOTICS            Topic: 4B

    CleanRobotics seeks to improve the US recycling system by using robotic sorting, powered by object detection, artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to sort up between 2-4 streams (recycling, compost, landfill, etc) at the point of collection. This will improve the collection and sortation of recyclables in the US, where total collection rates are 35% and successful sortation rates a ...

  7. Levaraging AxM Software Technology to Empower Material Reuse and Embodied Carbon Reporting in the Built Environment

    SBC: RHEAPLY INC            Topic: 4D

    As the single largest consumer of materials and energy use worldwide, the construction sector remains a prime target for materials reuse reform. (Krausmann et al., 2009; De Ia Rue du Can & Price, 2008). Construction and ongoing operation of the built environment extracts a significant amount of resources -- and on an ongoing basis. According to the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), buildings ac ...

  10. Early detection and prediction of harmful algal blooms using low cost, networked IOT sensors and machine learning

    SBC: AquaRealTime LLC            Topic: 20OSAPEP2

    Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) are an increasing problem in waterways all over the world, costing an average of $17 billion in damages each each year. HABs have shut down water supplies to entire US cities in recent years. Blooms occur when nutrient-rich waters stimulate cyanobacterial growth, resulting in unsightly sludges that discolor waterways, rendering them dangerous to humans, liverstock and ...
