Advanced sodium batteries with enhanced safety and low cost processing
SBC: Materials and Systems Research, Inc. Topic: 1Sodium beta-alumina batteries are one of the most promising large-scale electrical energy storage technologies due to their high energy density and excellent cycling capability. Despite many advantages, the sodium batteries have several barriers for successful commercialization, mainly related to safety issues and high capital investment for installation. The current battery cells typically oper ...

A Tide To Table Traceability and Marketing System for Shellfish Aquaculture.
SBC: Shellfish Solutions Inc. Topic: 9101In 2017 the CDC estimated 35,000 American got sick from Vibrio parahaemolyticus transmitted by shellfish--a 54% increase. However, according to the co-chair of the Interstate Shellfish Sanitation Commission, “Our current system of traceback is inadequate.... Records are lost. Handwriting is illegible. More than half of all traceback investigations fail because the information in the value chain ...

Automated Detection of Whale Blows in Infrared Video
SBC: SONALYSTS INC Topic: 816FThe gray whale migration generates many hours of video that must be examined carefully to identify passing whales and get an accurate count of their numbers. Unfortunately, humans lack the necessary attention span. To solve this problem, a detector will be developed that can process hours of video, detecting whale blows while minimizing false positives and negatives. With an accurate record of ...

Development of a Robust, Accurate, and Automated Method for Species and Origin Identification in Processed Seafood
SBC: APPLIED FOOD TECHNOLOGIES, INC Topic: 81The accurate identification of seafood species and origin has become an extremely important topic in the food industry. Mislabeling a lower valued seafood product to represent a species of higher value constitute economic fraud. In addition, this mislabeling compromises proper geographic origin labeling and fishery management efforts. DNA barcoding for seafood species identification provides re ...
