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. Seaweed-based bioplastic replacement for commercial lobster fishing gear.

    SBC: VIABLE GEAR LLC            Topic: 93

    Viable Gear will provide proof-of-concept for a seaweed-based bioplastic to be used in manufacturing a compostable biotwine for marine equipment, designed to replace petroleum-based plastics. This addresses NOM-SBIR research topic area 9.3, The Changing Ocean - specifically to "support increased protection and restoration of marine and coastal habitats to enhance vital ecosystems", by helping decr ...

  2. Development and evaluation of peroxide free fin-fish nursery feeds with active DHA-synthase enzyme (DSe)

    SBC: FPN LLC            Topic: 93

    The marine microalgae Chrypthecodinium conhii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and DHA synthase enzymes (DSe). Finfish have shown de novo synthesis of DHA when fed a C. cohnii product, KoniSap™, developed by FPN LLC. KoniSap™ is unique to the aqua-feed market as it is produced under low temperature and inert gas to prevent lipid oxidation and avoid enzyme denatura ...

  3. Sustainable seed production for North Atlantic kelp aquaculture

    SBC: Ocean's Balance Inc            Topic: 93

    Demand for seaweed products has dramatically increased in the U.S.; however, domestic production from both wild harvests and aquaculture operations only supplies 1% of this demand. To meet demand, expansion of seaweed aquaculture is crucial to protect wild populations from extinction by overharvesting, which impacts entire marine ecosystems. Currently, U.S. kelp aquaculture methods rely on wild ha ...

  4. In-Field Magnetometry for Determination of Lithium Battery SOC

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 23PH3

    By 2030 the entire lithium-ion battery chain, from mining through recycling, is expected to reach a value of $400 billion and a market size of 4.7 TWh. LiB are used in personal electronic devices, e-bikes, tools, green-power storage and electric vehicles. Individual cells are commonly collected into packs or modules to provide the power required for automotive operation. The operational capability ...

  5. A Low-Cost High-Capacity Portable Stormwater Treatment System for Emerging Contaminants

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 23FH1

    The State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) have limited right-of-way (ROW) to construct stormwater treatment controls. Hence innovative self-contained portable stormwater treatment systems are needed to reduce impacts on streams, and other waters; recreation facilities, and habitat by addressing emerging stormwater pollutants, particularly the suspended and dissolved pollutants from highway co ...

  6. Ultramafic Tailings Leaching and Lateritization with Electrolytic Acid Recycling for Critical Metal Recovery and Enhanced Mineral Carbonation

    SBC: Travertine Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 1

    Ultramafic rocks host two resources that are key to avoiding catastrophic climate warming: (1) elements essential for mineral carbonation with gigatonne-scale carbon dioxide removal and sequestration (CDRS) potential, and (2) first-row transition elements including nickel and cobalt that are critical for the renewable energy transition. These elements are chemically bound within solid mineral phas ...

    SBC: FPN LLC            Topic: 93

    The marine microalgae Crypthecodinium cohnii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of DHA and DHA synthase enzyme (DSe) both of which may provide nutritional benefits to finfish for human consumption. Field Phyto-Nutrients LLC has developed a process for algae-based feed preparation where the algae is dried under low temperature (

  9. Sustainable seed production for North Atlantic kelp aquaculture

    SBC: Ocean's Balance Inc            Topic: 93

    Demand for seaweed products has dramatically increased in the U.S.; however, only 1% is met with domestic production. Expansion of seaweed aquaculture is crucial to protect wild populations from extinction by overharvesting, which impacts entire marine ecosystems. Current kelp aquaculture methods rely on harvested reproductive tissue, which is not sustainable. In response to NOAA Topic 9.3, Health ...

  10. Micro-Scale, High-Accuracy, Photogrammetry Equipment (MSHAPE)

    SBC: ADA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: 21FR2

    ADA Technologies is proposing to develop a novel and unique system, called MSHAPE, to inspect railroad wheels in extremely fine geometric detail. This portable system, based on off-the-shelf components, will provide manufacturers, operators, maintainers and authorities ultra-high-accuracy measurements (better than .0005”) that will be used to assess the compliance of wheels with strict regulator ...
