Affordable Wastewater Disposal for Coastal Households Adapting to Sea Level Rise
SBC: WAIHOME LLC Topic: 92"Rising sea levels and king tide flooding in coastal areas across America are saturating onsite wastewater disposal systems (OSDS), resulting in the degradation of coastal ecosystems and 200,000+ illnesses annually. Many States are mandating system upgrades, with 88,000 upgrades required by 2050 in Hawaii alone. Unfortunately, existing upgrade options are unaffordable for 97% of Hawaiian homeowner ...

Carbon-Negative Oceanit Reef for Aquatic Life (CORAL) Surveying via Hyperspectral Imaging-Equipped Littoral Drones (SHIELD)
SBC: OCEANIT LABORATORIES INC Topic: 93Oceanit proposes the design, construction, and testing of a hyperspectral imaging equipped Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) for the detection of various coral species and the monitoring of coral health. This system will be the prototype for the sensor part of a robust, COTS-based UAS system to aid the NOAA National Coral Reef Monitoring Program. Different coral families and species will be identified ...

A Multimodal Computer Vision System for Fisheries Monitoring
SBC: AIFISH LLC Topic: 93Monitoring modern-day fisheries is extremely challenging. Every day, millions of vessels harvest the oceans, and many remain unregulated, putting target and non-target fish populations at risk of overexploitation and collapse. To combat this, fisheries managers are increasingly turning to Electronic Monitoring (EM) technologies – integrated systems of cameras and sensors – to record onboard ac ...

Smart Well Assessment and Reservoir Management System (SWARMS)
SBC: OCEANIT LABORATORIES INC Topic: 22PH4Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is actively involved in the safe transportation of energy and hazardous material that are vital to daily lives. This also includes underground natural gas storage (UNGS) maintenance and safe operation which are critical to nation's energy infrastructure. Enhancing leak detection and identifying smart ways to prevent potential well blow ...

Enhanced Aquaculture Monitoring
SBC: Tridentis Advanced Marine Vehicles LLC Topic: 91The purpose of this proposal is to analyze the monitoring requirements for near shore aquaculture installations and determine the best technical solution to continuously monitor these growing sites. By providing continuous monitoring of the water quality, shellfish/finfish quality can be inferred and then transmitted to the consumer as an enhanced food security certification. Tridentis Advanced ...

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 ...

Design and fabrication of the “OLEAS”: Oceanographic Lidar for Environmental ASsessment
SBC: NALU SCIENTIFIC, LLC Topic: 9601Passive ocean color remote sensing has revolutionized our ability to quantify the horizontal distribution of phytoplankton across the ocean surface. Lidar (Light Detection And Ranging) technology has the potential to similarly revolutionize our ability to remotely measure the vertical distribution of optical properties and suspended particles in natural waters, significantly improving our predicti ...

Crushed Aggregate Gradation Evaluation System
SBC: OCEANIT LABORATORIES INC Topic: 20FR4Crushed aggregate is used as railroad ballast, drainage and stabilization material. Fouling of this aggregate reduces its performance: it loses its ability to drain water resulting in reduced strength. Substructure failure is a leading cause of rail accidents and it is a strategic priority to develop new methods for monitoring ballast condition. The challenge is that aggregate fouling does not pre ...
