Transformation of carbon emissions to high-value products through a two-step electrochemical platform
SBC: LECTROLYST LLC Topic: GCarbon dioxide utilization can help reduce carbon emissions, but gaps remain in the value chain from initial capture to high-value products. Lectrolyst LLC will develop an electrochemical platform centered on selective two-step conversion of CO2 to acetic acid and ethylene, to fill this need. Preliminary life cycle assessment and techno-economic analyses indicate ~200 million metric tons of CO2 em ...

Dynamic Frequency Passive Millemeter-Wave Radiometer Based on Optical Up-Conversion
SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC Topic: 94Passive microwave sensors aboard satellites provide valuable information regarding weather conditions by measuring atmospheric attenuation over a broad range of frequencies from 0-200 GHz. Additional ground-based sensors are desirable to provide complementary upward looking measurements that can be used to refine existing attenuation models. Operating over such a large bandwidth, however, places ...

Dynamic Frequency Passive Millimeter-Wave Radiometer Based on Optical Up-Conversion
SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC Topic: 941DIn the proposed effort, we will leverage this extensive experience and capabilities to realize a frequency agile mmW radiometer that can cover the range of DC-110 GHz and can be scaled to DC-200 GHz under Phase II. Ours is a photonic system that multiplies and up-coverts a low-frequency reference signal onto an optical carrier (laser) using EO modulation, then uses the modulation sidebands to inj ...

Anion Exchange Resins for Chirality-based Separation of Single-wall Carbon Nanotubes
SBC: Sepax Technologies, Inc. Topic: 9060663RSingle chirality of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is critical for their superb mechanical, thermal, optical and electronic properties. All known methods for producing nanotubes give mixtures of tubes with different chiralities. Physical separation of SWCNT by chirality is thus an enabling step for many potential applications and fundamental studies. The existing anion exchange resins are ...

Optical Sensing and Control of Polymer Processing
SBC: Chemical ElectroPhysics Co. Inc. Topic: N/AA NIST/industry consortium identified accurate temperature distribution measurements, as one of the major technical needs of polymer processors. NIST developed a way to make spatially resolved temperature measurements. Add a small amount of dye. During processing, focus UV illumination onto a small volume element of the process material. Use the ratio of the resulting fluorescent intensities at tw ...

Perflouromembranes for Low Cost Oxygen Enrichment of Aquaculture
SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: N/ASuccess in aquaculture depends heavily on delivery of oxygen to fish. Currently, liquid oxygen and on-site generation by pressure swing adsorption (PSA) are two methods for supplying oxygen to aquaculture. Both are costly and have absorption efficiency problems. Membrane contractors, paddle wheels, and porous pipes are used with limited success to enhance oxygen transport to aquaculture. We ha ...
