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. Low Cost Oxygen Enriched Air by Membrane Separation

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 11a

    Oxygen enriched air (OEA) can be a valuable tool to enhance combustion processes, reduce CO2 emissions per unit of heat generated and also concentrate CO2 to enhance subsequent CO2 concentration ahead of CO2 sequestering. OEA reduces the presence of parasitic nitrogen and therefore flame temperature and associated heat transfer is higher with OEA. Studies show that using 40-50% OEA, which is the p ...

  2. Laser Ignition for Advanced Gasoline Engines

    SBC: Princeton Optronics            Topic: 07e

    A new ignition concept is needed for lean-burn combustion in gasoline engines. The approach should extend the lean ignition limit air/fuel ratio to & gt; 20, to enable reliable ignition under high in-cylinder pressures (up to 100 bar at the time of ignition) thus enabling high load operation, operation under high levels of exhaust gas recirculation, and lower or maintain ignitability (coefficient ...

  3. 60kW DC-AC Inverter with Internal Isolation using GaN Devices

    SBC: PRINCETON POWER SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 01a

    The amount of renewable energy installations is expected to grow substantially during the foreseeable future. Renewable energy harvested from PV, wind or hydrokinetic sources is intermittent and the most energy is not generally produced when the consumers need it most. Grid-tied storage can help to solve both of these problems. Stored energy can be used to smooth out an intermittent source; it can ...

  4. Advanced ignition technology for ultra lean,ultra high pressure internal combustion engines

    SBC: Knite Inc            Topic: 07e

    There is a need to further develop the internal combustion engine to increase its efficiency and reduce emissions. In this RFP, DoE has correctly concluded that presently utilized ignition technology is a limiting factor in further improvements. DoE has specified certain performance targets which it believes will enable the development of the next generation of internal combustion engines. Knite a ...

  5. A performance-improved implementation of ScaLAPACK implemented in Open Community Runtime

    SBC: ET International, Inc.            Topic: 02b

    Software development faces many challenges as high-performance computing (HPC) moves towards exascale: scalability, programmability, performance portability, resilience, and energy efficiency. To tackle these challenges, fundamental shifts in the basic execution models and programming models employed by HPC software are required. In particular, commonly used linear algebra libraries performance s ...

  6. Enhanced Mixed Feedstock Processing using Ionic Liquids

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 21l

    Researchers at JBEI have developed a pretreatment technology using ionic liquids that efficiently extracts sugars from a combination of mixed feed stocks. Any ionic liquid used for biomass pretreatment or cellulose hydrolysis by thermostable cellulose may be used. Until now, no known technology could efficiently pretreat and liberate sugars from mixed feedstock streams. The JBEI technolo ...

  7. Nimble: a Data Management and Visualization Framework for Large Scale Engineering and Science VVUQ Applications

    SBC: JMSI, INC            Topic: 25a

    Many U.S. manufacturers use advanced simulation tools to maintain competitiveness in the world marketplace. As sophisticated as these tools are, successful deployment depends upon the skills and experience of an aging workforce. Automated Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification (VV & amp;UQ) tools mitigate the risk of using simulation tools and help capture the knowledge of expert ...

  8. Dynamic Frequency Passive Millimeter-Wave Radiometer Based on Optical Up-Conversion

    SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC            Topic: 941D

    In 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 ...

  9. A Compact and portable laser Ultrasound Visualization Tool for Non-destructive Evaluation of Nuclear Reactor Components

    SBC: ALPHASENSE, INC.            Topic: 19e

    To ensure safe and reliable power production by nuclear power plants, a wide variety of materials and components need to undergo inspections and maintenances at pre-determined intervals. Condition based maintenance is highly desirable because it can potentially avoid unnecessarily costly maintenance actions and associated error induced failures. Consequently, it can help achieve nearly all the mai ...

  10. Membrane Facilitated Dimethyl Carbonate Production from Carbon Dioxide

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 17c

    Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is a high value organic chemical with many potentially important applications. DMC can be made from CO2 directly or indirectly. With the development of CO2 capture and sequestration technology, huge amounts of low cost CO2 will be available as a feed stock. The conversion of CO2 to DMC will be an attractive chemical production investment. A major problem associated the D ...
