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. Microfluidic Multichannel Flow Cytometer

    SBC: TECHSHOT, INC.            Topic: X1402

    Techshot, Inc. proposes continued research and development of an on-orbit cell counter culminating in a deliverable hand-held blood cell counter in the form of a "Microfluidic Multichannel Flow Cytometer". Crew health monitoring, the Human Research Program and research in Fundamental Biology will all benefit from the availability of on-orbit cell counters that can provide immediate and repeated b ...

  2. Brine Dewatering Using Ultrasonic Nebulization

    SBC: UMPQUA RESEARCH COMPANY            Topic: X203

    Recovery of water from brine is critically important for future manned space exploration. Resupply of water is prohibitively costly for such extended missions. Water reclamation processes typically recover 90-95% of the water present in wastewater formed by combining urine, hygiene water, and humidity condensate with the remaining concentrated in brine. This concentrated brine contains a signif ...

  3. Nonhazardous Urine Pretreatment Method for Future Exploration Systems

    SBC: UMPQUA RESEARCH COMPANY            Topic: X302

    A nonhazardous urine pretreatment system prototype is proposed that will stabilize urine against biological growth or chemical instabilities without using hazardous chemicals. Untreated urine fosters biological growth, ammonia off-gassing, creation of bio-solids, and inorganic precipitates, which foul water and air reclamation hardware. The current Russian system employs hexavalent chromium, a s ...

  4. High Efficiency, Large-Area, 1550 nm InGaAs Photodiodes

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: N/A

    A back-illuminated planar InGaAs photodiode tested to have 95% quantum effiiency (QE) at 1550 nm, area greater than 1 mm2, low capacitance (125 MHz) will be improved. Although the existing Phase I device exhibited bulk material dark current generation better than commercially available devices, the sidewall-generated dark current was found to dominate the noise equiva ...

  5. ADIABATIC WANKEL TYPE ROTARY ENGINES

    SBC: ADIABATICS INC            Topic: N/A

    A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF R & D WORK HAS BEEN DONE FOR THE WANKEL ROTARY ENGINE APPLICATION TO AUTOMOBILES, PLANES, ETC. RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS. THE PERFORMANCE, RELIABILITY AND DURABILITY THAT THE WANKEL HAS DEMONSTRATED, HOWEVER, FALLS SHORT OF THE POPULAR DIESEL ENGINE. THE ADIABATIC, TURBOCOMPOUND CONCEPT THAT HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED FOR THE DIESEL IS THOUGHT TO BE MORE BENEFICIAL TO T ...

  6. A NOVEL MEMBRANE-BASED WATER RECLAMATION POST-TREATMENT UNIT

    SBC: BEND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    FOR FUTURE LONG-TERM SPACE MISSIONS SPACECRAFT WATER RECYCLE SYSTEMS ARE NOW UNDER DEVELOPMENT. ONE WATER RECYCLE SYSTEM STUDIED BY NASA INCLUDES A REVERSE-OSMOSIS (RO) SUBSYSTEM THAT WILL PRODUCE REUSABLE WATER FROM WASH WATERS. THE CONCENTRATE FROM THE RO SUBSYSTEM WILL BE COMBINED WITH URINE AND DISTILLED TO RECOVER MORE WATER. THIS PROJECT WILL INVESTIGATE THE USE OF AN ADDITIONAL RO COMPONENT ...

  7. High Pressure Specimen Chamber

    SBC: TECHSHOT, INC.            Topic: 814

    Even today as a highly technical and advanced world civilization, the physiology of deep sea fish and invertebrates continues to remain mysterious and poorly known. Past specimen containers fail to either have the size or volume needed or lack the robustness for high pressure containment of in many cases, lack the repeatability necessary to ensure a reasonable lifetime of continuous use. The Tec ...

  8. AN ANIMAL DEVELOPMENT HABITAT FOR SPACE BIOLOGY

    SBC: STAR ENTERPRISES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    CURRENT LIFE-SUPPORT SYSTEMS FOR EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS CANNOT BE USED FOR DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES OF ANIMALS IN SPACE. AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO THE DESIGN OF AN ANIMAL DEVELOPMENT HABITAT, COMPATIBLE WITH THE MIDDECK LOCKERS OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE, IS BASED ON STUDIES OF NATURALLY-OCCURRING MATERNAL BURROWS OF RODENTS, SURFACE/VOLUME RATIOS OF DIFFERENT HABITAT CONFIGURATIONS, AND ANALYSIS OF PHYSIOLO ...

  9. Efficient Low-Dark-Count Detector for Photon Counting

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Voxtel has demonstrated efficient high-speed photon counting with thresholded linear-mode avalanche photodiode (APD) receivers using multi-gain-stage InGaAs/InAIAs APDs. In contrast to Geiger APDs, thresholded photon-counting linear APD receivers are thought not to suffer afterpulsing, and can support maximum count rates (MCR) up to 2 or 3 orders of magnitude faster than Geiger APDs. However, the ...
