Commercialization of Solid Acid and Base Catalysts Derived from Biochar Optimized to Produce Biodiesel from Low Cost Oils
SBC: Down to Earth Energy (formerly Mountain Creek Enterprises) Topic: TopicGDown to Earth Energy will scale up and commercialize reusable and recoverable solid, porous acid and base catalysts for biodiesel production using biochar generated from agricultural and forestry residues (i.e., a sustainable biomass). The Phase I feasibility study using an acid catalyst made from biochar (peanut hulls, pine pellets, and pine chips) showed high efficiency methylation of fats and o ...

Validation of an Amphibian Lifecycle Test Method for Measuring Endocrine Disruption
SBC: Fort Environmental Laboratories, Inc. Topic: C3NCERPHThe Phase I study resulted in the development of an assay that tests substances that have the capacity to disturb reproductive and developmental processes during the lifecycle of a vertebrate animal by interfering with the endocrine system. The primary goal of this Phase II research project is to standardize, validate, and commercialize an amphibian lifecycle model using Xenopus as a ...

Applying Passive Samplers to Assess Perfluoroalkylated Substances in Soils and Sediments
SBC: ACCURATE ENVIRONMENTAL LLC Topic: 17NCER3AThe presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the environment represents an emerging issue due to their stability, bioaccumulation potential, and risks to human and ecological well-being. There is a critical need to develop sampling methods for PFAS to assess risks and inform remedial investigations and feasibility studies (RI/FS) at locations where historical releases have elevate ...

Phytoremediation of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) via phytoextraction
SBC: NUTTER & ASSOCIATES, INC. Topic: 17NCER3ANAI has a strategy to identify plant species best suited for proof-of-concept testing for phytoremediation of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) via phytoextraction. Phytoextraction refers to the uptake and translocation of contaminants in the soil by plant roots into the aboveground portions of plants. Once the phytoextraction concepts are proven at the bench-scale (Phase I) and followed with succe ...

Efficient Distributed Energy Generation System
SBC: LYNNTECH INC. Topic: TopicADistributed energy offers a means of providing reliable, cost-effective electrical power to residents of rural communities. These requirements often cannot be met by current distribution methods due to limitation of remote central station power generation and transmission. With the migration of population from urban areas to rural areas and the increased power demands placed on electrical grids fr ...

Improved Heterogeneous Catalyst for the Transesterification of Triglycerides to Biodiesel
SBC: LYNNTECH INC. Topic: TopicHThere is a finite amount of fossil fuels, which will only last a few more decades. Therefore, it is imperative to develop renewable sources of energy. An area that has recently attracted a lot of attention is the conversion of renewable oils to biodiesel, primarily through the methanolysis of triglycerides. The use of an immobilized lipase as a heterogeneous biocatalyst to transform oils into biod ...
