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. BIOFOULING ON AQUACULTURE CROPS AND GEAR WITH A VIEW TO ERADICATION

    SBC: Pemaquid Oyster Company, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Biofouling is a costly and serious problem for all types of aquaculture and with certain types of shellfish, culture is highly vulnerable. Fouling organisms not only clog gear, stopping water flow and food delivery, they can also settle and grow on the cultured organisms themselves, causing reduced growth rates, decreased product quality and mortality. In response to increasing problems with biofo ...

  2. Cost Effective Microalgae Production for Aquaculture

    SBC: MOOK SEA FARMS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The high cost of producing microalgae as food for bivalves constrains the size to which large quantities of bivalve seed can be grown in controlled hatchery conditions prior to transfer into a nursery. Larger hatchery seed translates to larger juveniles planted in the fall, and dramatically improves yields at harvest. Based on preliminary bench-top studies conducted by Mook Sea Farm, the SBIR Phas ...

  3. Development of a 100% Biodegradable Stabilized Plant Propagation Medium using Corn-Based Polymer

    SBC: Rynel, Inc            Topic: N/A

    Stabilized plant propagation media are used throughout the agricultural industry for mechanized planting, to ease transplant and shipping of young plants and to increase efficiencies in greenhouses and nurseries. Rynels Grow-Tech division manufactures a growing medium used by foresters and commercial growers to start seeds or cuttings, but it is only partially organic due to a polyurethane compone ...

  4. Enhanced Processing of Natural Foods

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

    The development of new technology that can facilitate natural food and flavor biochemistry reactions has potential to have fundamental and tremendous impact on food science and nutrition and other high value products. Reactor time and temperature are an extraordinarily expensive aspect of food and flavor development. Enabling technology that can improve product yield, improve separation, decrease ...

  5. Inexpensive Ethylene Monitor for Use with Perishable Commodities

    SBC: Polestar Technologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    The exposure of perishable commodities to even modest levels of ethylene is known to significantly affect the quality and appearance of the product resulting in a reduction of shelf life and market value. A Phase I project is proposed which will demonstrate the feasibility of an innovative, low cost ethylene monitor to be used to facilitate control of ethylene levels at or below biologically criti ...

  6. Low-cost conductimetric biosensor for detection of multiple bioterrorism agents

    SBC: RAPID BIOSENSE            Topic: N/A

    Combating bioterrorism effectively will require diagnostic devices that can detect potential bioterrorism agents quickly with a high level of specificity and simplicity in any sample matrix. The longterm goal is to develop a novel multi-array immunosensor to be used as an immediate response device in veterinary hospitals and diagnostic labs for detection of bacteria, viruses, and toxins. In Phase ...

  7. Production of Hydrogen from Agricultural Waste

    SBC: HANSEN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL, LLC            Topic: N/A

    This small business innovative research proposal is directed to methods for generating hydrogen using anaerobic digestion. This patent pending system differs in three ways form other anaerobic systems now being tried: First the substrate to control PH in the digester for hydrogen production will be a waste product: second the digestion and hydrogen production will be high rate and third the proces ...

  8. The Mass Loading Monitor-- Worker Safety and Equipment Protection in Grain Handling Facilities

    SBC: Digital Flow Technologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Dust loadings at or above the minimum explosive concentration (MEC) can lead to catastrophic loss of life and destruction of property. This proposal is to initiate the development of a mass loading monitor (MLM) that will provide a warning signal when the MEC is approached. The proposed MLM will determine the mass of dust particulates in a given air volume. The measured concentration: grams m3, wi ...
