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. MEMS Biosensor for In Situ Drinking Water Analysis

    SBC: AGAVE BIOSYSTEMS INC.            Topic: N/A

    The occurrence of causative agents such as Cryptosporidium parvum and other pathogens in water supplies presents a critical issue. Transmitted through water and animals, these organisms provide a reservoir of infection, which results in the excretion of the environmentally stable cysts or oocysts that are impervious to inactivation by many drinking water disinfectants. Cryptosporidium infections a ...

  2. Removal of Mercury and other Heavy Metals of Industrial and Contaminated Site Waste Waters by Organic Chelation, Coprecipitation and High Efficiency Particulate Removal

    SBC: Frontier Geosciences Inc.            Topic: N/A

    The effluents of many industrial processes, as well as surface water and groundwater from historically polluted sites, often contain unacceptably high levels of Hg and other toxic trace metals. Although inorganic Hg itself is not bioaccumulative, it is readily converted to methyl mercury in the ambient environment, and so should be removed before discharge. The U.S. EPA has identified mercury-cont ...

  3. A New Microfludic System for the Determination of Cryptosporidium Oocysts in Water

    SBC: LYNNTECH INC.            Topic: N/A

    Cryptosporidium, originating from contamination of public drinking water supplies, ponds, rivers, or swimming pools, have cause large-scale and deadly outbreaks, which became a major cause of waterborne infectious diseases. Since 1991, the percent of outbreaks attributable to Cryptosporidium has doubled, and in the 1993-1994 period, 17 percent of all outbreaks were caused by Cryptosporidium. In 19 ...

  4. A Novel Method for Converting a Negative Value Waste Into a Commodity Chemical

    SBC: LYNNTECH INC.            Topic: N/A

    It is estimated that there are approximately 300 million tires discarded each year in the United States and this is in addition to the 800 million scrap tires that reside in landfills and tire dumps throughout the country. About 180 million are recycled, and the remaining 120 million scrap tires are discarded (legally or illegally) in landfills or tire dumps. Current tire reuse technologies offer ...

  5. TWO NEW NDE TECHNIQUES FOR INSPECTION OF CONTAINMENT WELDS BENEATH COATINGS

    SBC: PHYSICAL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    INSPECTION OF PAINTED OR COATED CARBON STEEL SURFACES OFTEN INVOLVES THE REMOVAL OF THE COATING PRIOR TO INSPECTION, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE USE OF MAGNETIC PARTICLE TESTING (MT) IS REQUIRED. IN THE CASE OF EXAMINATION OF CONTAINMENT VESSEL WALLS IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS, THE REMOVAL IS TIME CONSUMING, RESULTING IN INCREASED RADIATION EXPOSURE TO WORKERS. IN ADDITION, THE REMOVAL MUST BE DONE WITHOUT C ...

  6. Low-Level Speciation of Cyanide in Waters

    SBC: Frontier Geosciences Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Frontier Geosciences, Inc., proposes to develop a novel method for the speciation of a wide variety of different covalent and complex cyanides in waters, based on the coupling of a chromatographic separation to the most sensitive and selective cyanide detector that currently is available commercially. This type of method development specifically is requested by the U.S. Environmental Protection Ag ...

  7. A Novel Treatment Method of Drinking Water

    SBC: Ion Physics Corporation            Topic: N/A

    Pulsed electric field (PEF) disinfection is becoming well known as a possible means for the control of microorganisms in fluids. Although this technique has been shown to be effective against a wide variety of microorganisms, its widespread application is impeded by the high specific energy input (kWh/L) required. Conversely, the proposed enhanced PEF process promises a significant reduction in th ...

  8. Novel Method for Ferrate Production

    SBC: LYNNTECH INC.            Topic: N/A

    This Phase I project is concerned with the development of a simple, cost-effective, environmentally friendly process for the production of potassium ferrate. Lynntech, Inc.'s proposed method can be readily scaled up for the production of industrial quantities of this extremely useful oxidant. Ferrate is an environmentally friendly oxidant that represents an ideal substitute for other oxidants, par ...

  9. Hand-Held Fluorometer Using Selex DNA Aptamer Strip Assays to Detect Cryptosporidium and Encephlitozoon

    SBC: Systems & Processes Engineering Corporation            Topic: N/A

    Systems & Processes Engineering Corporation (SPEC) proposes to develop receptors composed of DNA oligomers ("aptamers") from a combinatorial library for binding and detecting Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts and three species of Encephalitozoon spores. Aptamers will be generated by the Systematic Evolution of Ligands by EXponential enrichment (SELEX) combinatorial chemistry technique. SELEX aptamers ...

  10. BIODEGRADATION ENHANCEMENT OF PEETROGENIC WASTES

    SBC: Ecova Corp.            Topic: N/A

    THE PROPOSED RESEARCH WILL DEVELOP AN IN SITU PROCESS WHICH WILL ENHANCE THE RATE AND EFFICIENCY ASSOCIATED WITH THE BIODEGRADATION OF HYDROPHOBIC ORGANIC CHEMICALS AT MILITARY INSTALLATIONS AND SUPERFUND SITES. RESEARCH ACTIVITIES WILLFOCUS ON IDENTIFICATION OF CHEMICAL OR BIOLOGICAL EMULSIFIERS (SURFACTANTS) WHICH WILL ENHANCE THE BIO-AVAILABILITY OF SUCH PETROGENIC WASTE AS CREOSOTE, COAL TARS, ...
