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. Topic 27a: Monodisperse aerosol generator for field calibration of atmospheric measurement instrumentation

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 27a

    Aerosols and clouds play an important role in the Earth's global energy and solar radiation balance and hydrological cycle. However, the processes that govern cloud-aerosol interactions, drizzle formation and precipitation are poorly understood and represent major sources of uncertainty in predictive models. The DOE ARM Facilities and other global atmospheric measurement networks provide data that ...

  2. Engineered Enzymes for Polyurethane Recycling

    SBC: Birch Biosciences, LLC            Topic: C5331a

    C53-31a-271169Significant technical innovations are needed to improve the economics of plastic recycling. Plastic recycling rates in the United States have been stagnant for more than a decade: less than 10% of plastics are currently recycled, and only 5.5% of polyurethane plastics are recycled. Plastics have become a major contributor to global warming, as emissions from global plastics productio ...

  3. Low Power Instrumentation for Measurement of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Terrestrial-Aquatic Interfaces

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: C5129a

    Nitrous oxide is the third most important greenhouse trace gas after carbon dioxide and methane and is a dominant ozone depleting substance. Its emissions to the atmosphere are extremely heterogeneous in space and time. Novel approaches to characterize such heterogeneity for incorporation into models and to identify effective mitigation strategies are greatly needed. Commercial instruments for flu ...

  4. Asynchronous Heterogeneous Distributed Tensor Communication

    SBC: EXTREME SCALE SOLUTIONS LLC            Topic: C5107b

    Large-scale data-intensive linear algebra operations are hard to scale on distributed, heterogeneous systems. Further, the data distribution across machines makes it very difficult to compose implementations as each has their own requirements. A linear algebra abstraction is needed to compose implementations. There are many use cases for such an abstraction. We will focus on simulation of differen ...

  5. E4S: Extreme-Scale Scientific Software Stack for Commercial Clouds

    SBC: PARATOOLS, INC            Topic: C5302b

    C53-02b-271168The software used in High Performance Computing (HPC) and ArtificialIntelligence/MachineLearning (AI/ML) workloads is increasingly complex to maintain, install, and optimize. More problematic is the poor performance portability of applications between platforms, forcing site-specific re-engineering of codes. Existing solutions to deployment of AI/ML work?ows on commercial cloud envir ...

  6. Integrating Sensors, Remote Sensing and DNDC Model for Quantifying GHG Emissions

    SBC: Dagan, Inc.            Topic: 1

    Spatial and temporal variability of soil carbon stocks and soil environmental drivers that cause the production and flux of nitrous oxide (N2O) across agricultural systems create challenges for cost effective quantification of N2O emissions and soil carbon stock changes at scale. Technological innovations sensor technologies, remote sensing technologies, cost effective metagenomics sequencing and ...

  7. Non-destructive, Functional Metabolic Imaging of Plant and Microbial Systems

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 27a

    Functional metabolic imaging of plant and microbial systems requires a sensitive, high spatial resolution microscopy method that can image metabolically important compounds in situ. This will require new chemically sensitive imaging methods to be developed. In this SBIR/STTR, we will develop a new coherent Raman-based microscopy technique called Doppler Raman that will improve sensitivity over exi ...

  8. Ground-based water vapor atmospheric vertical profiler

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 25b

    Detailed accurate data on temperature variations and water vapor concentration distributions are needed for weather and climate forecasting. Water vapor is particularly important for predicting precipitation amounts from storms. Measurements are needed from the ground to the top of the troposphere at about 10 km altitude. Existing ground-based instruments often have measurement uncertainties due t ...

  9. Portable, low power soil gas analyzer

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 19a

    There is a need for soil gas analyzers to characterize subsurface biogeochemical processes by measuring simultaneously multiple gases that are signatures for specific processes. Instruments should be significantly more portable and require less power than what is currently available. The analyzers need to be suitable for field work and laboratory studies. How This Problem is Being Addressed: Rugge ...

  10. Portable nitrous oxide sensor for understanding agricultural and soil emissions

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: 18c

    Nitrous oxide is the third most important greenhouse gas (GHG,) with an atmospheric lifetime of ~114 years and a global warming impact ~300 times greater than that of CO2. The main cause of nitrous oxide’s atmospheric increase is anthropogenic emissions, and over 80% of the current global anthropogenic flux is related to agriculture, including associated land-use change. An accurate assessment o ...
