Robust cost-effective characterization of petrophysical properties in sedimentary geothermal applications leveraged by drilling data and cuttings
SBC: GREENPATH SYSTEMS LLC Topic: C5513aPetrophysical properties such as porosity and permeability are arguably the most important parameters in enhancing geothermal heat production through better completion design and stimulation plan. Collecting well logs are often passive and associated with additional costs. In addition, many logging packages cannot sustain high-temperature formations often observed in geothermal conditions. In thes ...

Extended SWIR Single Photon Avalanche Photo Detector Technology for Bioimaging
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: C5519bThere are two principal technical limitations and challenges associated with bioimaging. First, depth imaging is limited by light scattering and diffraction in biological tissue. Second, classical high flux multiphoton optical imaging causes photo-damage to cellular viability and perturbations to molecular biological processes. This renders the sample unusable for repeated in situ imaging and proh ...

LOCAETA: Local Climate Air Emissions Tracking Atlas
SBC: CARBON SOLUTIONS LLC Topic: C5516cAir quality data from top-of-the-line platforms, such as satellites, are difficult to obtain without a high- level of technical knowledge. For this reason, local air quality patterns and trends are often inaccessible to disadvantaged communities (DACs). Many technologies that will be used for deep decarbonization of industrial and power facilities have the added co-benefit of reducing non-CO2 poll ...

NECTAR: The Negative CO2 Emission Transition Roadmap
SBC: CARBON SOLUTIONS LLC Topic: C5322cC53-22c-271119Meeting climate-stabilizing energy transition goals requires using hybrid-energy CO2 capture systems like Direct Air Capture (DAC) to remove billions of tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere. Deploying this capacity will be difficult because it is complex and energy intensive infrastructure, and there must also be buy- in from communities living in locations best suited for it. The chall ...

Shared Mobility Optimizer
SBC: TERRACITY LLC Topic: C5610cIn the United States, transportation is the leading source of emissions among major industries. This puts pressure on cities to optimize transportation infrastructures to meet decarbonization goals. City planners are required to ingest data from a variety of sources and balance a wide array of priorities ranging from mobility and equality to safety and sustainability. Making decisions for optimal ...

20c Polymer Composites with Enhanced Thermal Conductivity
SBC: TETRAMER TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: C5620cPlastics (polymers) are used widely in energy, industry, and defense sectors due to their low cost and weight, processibility, and electrical insulation properties. Unfortunately, this class of materials is also thermally insulating, which restricts their usefulness in applications where heat is generated and has a direct effect on the performance (e.g. electronics and computing, LED lighting, hea ...
