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. Direct Tomography Simulation for Combustion Flows

    SBC: SYMPLECTIC RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 07a

    In order to develop the next-generation of low-emission energy-efficient combustion devices, high-fidelity computational tools are needed that could enable engineers to maximize efficiency of their designs in a minimal time frame. High-performance exascale simulations of combustion phenomena are critically important to understand and develop novel combustion technologies operating at high pressure ...

  2. Numerical Model Development For Supercritical CO2 Oxy-Combustion

    SBC: COMBUSTION SCIENCE & ENGINEERING, INC.            Topic: 22d

    Supercritical CO2 (sCO2) power cycles operate at high pressures (300 bar) and high inlet temperatures (700°C), placing the CO2 well above the critical point. Current plans are to operate these devices using natural gas or syngas, burning with oxygen at fairly low combustion temperatures (1100 °C). However, there are gaps in the understanding of oxy-fuel combustion with CO2 under supercritical co ...

  4. Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) Coatings as Superior Thermal Barriers for Engine Pistons

    SBC: IBC Materials & Technologies, LLC            Topic: 13c

    Automobiles (cars and trucks for instance) are the predominant mode of transportation in the United States. These vehicles are powered by internal combustion engines that consume fossil fuels such as gasoline. Improving the efficiency of internal combustion engines is an ongoing challenge of enormous impact to energy consumption in the world. In order to improve engine efficiency and thus fuel eco ...

  5. Fabrication and Validation of Electrical Components Produced From Covetic Materials

    SBC: NAECO, LLC            Topic: 07c

    Covetic materials are a class of metal-carbon composites whose electrical and thermal conductivity are reported to be up to 40-50% higher than pure metals or alloys. Although covetic materials have been produced from a number of metals including copper, silver and aluminum, their enhanced electrical and thermal conductivities have not yet been demonstrated in real world applications. NAECO, LLC pr ...

  6. 08b area2 Production of Platform Chemicals by Bioconversion of Plastic Waste

    SBC: SOUTHEASTERN BIOCHEMICALS, INC.            Topic: 08b

    The bulk of post-consumer plastics ends up in landfills or in the environment. In principle, most discarded plastics can be recycled. In practice, the standard approaches generally yield materials that are of lower quality than the initial product, resulting in “downcycling”, or a loss of value. In contrast, we think that a bioconversion process can upcycle plastic waste, yielding value-added ...

  7. 20a. Automated Data Collection and Compression System for CO2 Monitoring Data

    SBC: Teverra LLC            Topic: 20a

    Over the past two decades, there has been a drastic advance in the sensing technologies and data acquisition systems. These technologies have been deployed in carbon sequestration to continuously monitor CO2 migration and location during and after injection. A complex network of surface and underground sensors is often installed generating large volume of intricate datasets. These datasets require ...

  8. IMPROVING AHU PERFORMANCE BY MINIMIZING APPROACH TEMPERATURE, REDUCING AIR MALDISTRIBUTION, AND EFFICIENTLY HANDLING SENSIBLE AND LATENT LOADS

    SBC: Optimized Thermal Systems, Inc.            Topic: 09a

    Residential air handling units (AHUs) have essentially stayed the same in size, shape, form and efficiency for the past 30+ years. While incremental improvements have been made to address safety, functionality, and energy-efficiency concerns, the overall structure has remained the same. Significant change is needed to develop a next generation design that can more readily address the increasing en ...

  9. Pole-based solar mounting and tracking system for use in cattle production

    SBC: FARMAFIELD LABS, LLC            Topic: 12e

    Rural areas in the United States have under-developed solar power capabilities relative to urban areas due to challenges matching energy demand centers with underutilized land and consequent cost challenges related to smaller installations that lack economies of scale. This project addresses these problems by proposing solar installations that operate synergistically with livestock production oper ...

  10. Accurate Vegetation Subtraction Tools for Disparate Data Products

    SBC: Applied Research LLC            Topic: 03c

    Grass, shrub, and tree all belong to vegetation with similar colors, but the heights can be quite different. Removal of vegetation from digital surface models (DSM) can result in enhanced digital terrain models (DTM). Conventional approaches using LIDAR and radar have achieved some success. However, there are still some challenges for other types of imagers. First, for infrared and RGB images, the ...
