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. Commercialization of Sustained Release Delivery Systems for Controlling and Monitoring Fire Ants

    SBC: BioGuard Research & Development, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Imported fire ants have a combined impact/cost of over $6B annually including loss of human life. Of that, approximately $1B is agricultural damage to crops, livestock and other domesticated animals. The purpose is to improve/reformulate then laboratory/field-test the efficacy of a series of "very successful" Phase I SBIR sustained-release prototypes for deliverying volatile ...

  2. Phase II: Integrated Acoustic System for Monitoring Fish Feed and Waste in Aquaculture Pens

    SBC: Biosonics, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Net-pen aquaculture, in both freshwater and marine environments, is a large agricultural sector and produces a significant component of the world's fish for human consumption. Increasing pressure to generate profit and decrease production costs, plus pressure by the public and private sector to address ecological concerns associated with waste generated by these aquaculture ...

  3. Phase Change Materials from Fats and Oils

    SBC: ChemChar Research, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: A The price of fats and oils are depressed due to an over-supply created by recent increases in palm oil production. B New approaches are needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to reduce the cost of air conditioning for buildings. A This project will demonstrate the conversion of fats and oils into phase change materials typically sold at prices over $0.50 per pound. ...

  4. Enhanced Control of Fruit Ripening

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Ethylene is a growth hormone for fruits and vegetables that is generated by the plants themselves; that is, it acts as a self-ripening agent. Hence, the removal of ethylene gas can play a central role in maintaining the freshness of these products. Whereas the temperature and the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide gases are also important system variables that demand a significant economic invest ...

  5. A Safer Class of Agricultural Nematicides Based on Natural Fatty Acid Products

    SBC: Divergence, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Plant parasitic nematodes are among the most important crop pathogens in the United States, causing an estimated $7-9 billion in lost yield annually. Traditional nematicides, including organophosphates, are under severe regulatory pressure because of toxological and environmental concerns. The purpose of this project is to develop a new, safer nematode control agent for U.S. growers.

  6. Wood-Strand Erosion Control Material

    SBC: FOREST CONCEPTS LLC            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Soil erosion from disturbed lands, construction sites and low-volume roads is a major source of water pollution in all areas of the United States. This project will develop a wood-based erosion control material for forest and wildlands applications that performs or exceeds the functionality of agricultural straw while addressing straw's known limitations.

  7. Appropriate Technology Woody-Biomass Collection Systems for Bioenergy and Biobased Products

    SBC: FOREST CONCEPTS LLC            Topic: N/A

    It is currently prohibitively expensive to collect and transport woody biomass from urban areas to biorefineries, bioenergy and other users in distant markets. This project optimizes biomass density through baling for transport via truck and rail.

  8. Expanding Market Potential for Polyploid Oyster Technology by Cryopreservation

    SBC: Taylor Resources, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Tetraploid oysters Crassostrea gigas have been successfully produced and used commercially to produce "mated" 100% triploids. However, the expansion of this market is limited by the need to use live animals as broodstock, which prevents the long distance shipping of individuals. The purpose of this study is to develop a technique to obtain cryopreserved tetraploid sperm. Thi ...

  9. Formation of a Structural Core Material from Wood Residuals and Recycled Fiber

    SBC: West MountainView International, LLC            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Prior attempts to develop and commercialize a lightweight fiberboard panel with widespread market acceptance have faltered due to lack of a cost-efficient, industrially robust manufacturing process or to significant limitations in product performance properties. This project will advance the dry-formed TrussCore process to an anticipated favorable assessment of Industrial Fe ...

  10. Packaging of Poultry Litter for Economically Viable Storge and Transportation: Phase II

    SBC: Mammoth Corporation            Topic: N/A

    Areas of high poultry production in the U.S. have led to a serious problem of excess poultry litter which presently threatens to contaminate groundwater sources by introducing excessive quantities of bio-nutrients (eg, N,P &K) into the aquifer. This project proposes an economically viable solution to the problem by forming the excess material into large, dense, plastic-wrapped bales which can then ...
