Plasma-Enhancement of Absorbers for Improved Removal of PFOS and PFOA from Water
SBC: AA PLASMA LLC Topic: 17NCER1ANew regulations and advisory levels for perfluoroalkyl substances have resulted in increased drinking water treatment costs or abandonment of drinking water sources. Treatment technologies are needed that can achieve low parts-per-trillion levels. Presently, there are insufficient treatment technologies that can destructively remove perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and/or perfluorooctane sulfonic aci ...

Development of Innovative Broad-Spectrum Analysis Methods for PFAS
SBC: SEACOAST SCIENCE, INC. Topic: 17NCER3AThis SBIR addresses EPA’s need for improved sampling and analysis technologies to detect Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS). PFAS are used in firefighting sprays, at airports, and for wild fires, and have been used in textile treatments (e.g., it is a component in Scotchgard). It is estimated that 65 million Americans are at risk of PFAS exposure in their drinking water. Seacoast propose ...

Greener Plastics with High Heat Tolerance for Additive Manufacturing
SBC: INTELLIGENT OPTICAL SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: 17NCER5BAdvances in materials and automation are rapidly reshaping the American manufacturing economy. These advances must be embraced to sustain a strong manufacturing sector in the United States. Additive manufacturing is possibly the fastest growing example of this trend, growing at an astonishing compound annual growth rate of 25.7%. The plastic materials market for additive manufacturing, valued at $ ...

Feasibility of rPET Lignin-Content Polylols for Significant Reduction of Halogenated Flame Retardant in Construction Spray Foam
SBC: Resinate Materials Group, Inc. Topic: 17NCER6AThis EPA SBIR Phase I Research and Development proposal will demonstrate feasibility of reduction in halogenated flame retardant use in polyisocyanurate foams prepared from lignincontent rPET polyols. The study will show whether or not the lignin rPET polyol formulations meet ASTM flame retardancy standards and thus reduce or eliminate the need for halogenated fire retardants (HFRs) in spray foams ...

A GREEN AND UNIQUE THERMOSETTING-THERMOPLASTIC POLYCARBONATE
SBC: INSTRUMENTAL POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES, LLC Topic: 16NCER2BOf the 300 million tons of plastic produced per year most will require 500 years to biodegrade. Currently only 9% is recycled, and 50 million tons of thermoset plastic produced annually that can't be recycled. _x000D_ _x000D_ This project will develop a sustainable and easily biodegradable polycarbonate plastic that is uniquely a recyclable thermoset resin. We call it a thermosetting thermoplastic ...

Mobile Analytical Platform for Lead Detection in Drinking Water
SBC: NANOSAFE, INC. Topic: 16NCER4CThe drinking water crisis in Flint, Michigan reminds us that lead remains dangerous and insidious toxicant that can impact public health for months or years before it is detected and remedied.Increasing awareness of lead contamination has motivated the general public to test their own drinking water, but few tools are availiable to help these "citizen scientist" do so effectively.Current lead scre ...
