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. Transformation of carbon emissions to high-value products through a two-step electrochemical platform

    SBC: LECTROLYST LLC            Topic: G

    Carbon 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 ...

  2. Inorganic Membrane-based Process for High Efficiency Catalytic Conversion and Product Separation in Direct Synthesis of Dimethyl Carbonate

    SBC: Media and Process Technology Inc.            Topic: 22c

    Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is a promising green chemical due to its simplicity, versatility, low toxicity, high polarity, low corrosivity, and biodegradability. Further, “direct synthesis” of DMC using CO2 as a reactant offers a pathway forward to effective greenhouse gas reutilization. DMC is one of the most promising organic carbonates in terms of the range of applications.The US EPA has exemp ...

  3. Plasma-Assisted Catalysis for CO2 Utilization

    SBC: ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: 22c

    The goal of this work is to develop a new technology that uses nonthermal plasma to efficiently convert carbon dioxide and methane, two greenhouses gases, to syngas. Benefits that can be realized with the use of plasma include: (1) operation at low and intermediate temperatures with or without catalysts, (2) on-demand production of syngas, (3) production of syngas having a hydrogen-to-carbon monox ...

  4. Rapid Multi-Modal Microscopy Feature Correlation Tool (RM-MFCT)

    SBC: ChemImage Corporation            Topic: 02a

    One of the most difficult challenges faced to combine microscope information is the relocation of particulate matter or region of interest from one instrument platform to the other. This is often due to differences in morphological appearances of the particles and magnification changes between the scanning electron microscopy and the optical-based instrument. In addition, skew effect caused by opt ...

  5. Short Fiber Preform Technology for Automotive Part Production

    SBC: COMPOSITES AUTOMATION LLC            Topic: 13f

    The STTR effort will evaluate an aligned, short carbon fiber (CF) material called Tailorable Universal Feedstock for Forming (TuFF) for forming of complex geometry preforms, assess process and material challenges and demonstrate mechanical properties using Wet Compression Molding. TuFF material has demonstrated highly aligned, high fiber volume fraction (~50‐60%) components with full continuous ...

  6. Dewatering Membrane for Hazy Hydrodesulfurization Unit Effluents

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 09

    Many refinery product streams, particularly those from Ultra Low Hydrodesulfurisation units, are prone to haze due to water emulsions. Haze is also problematic for biodiesel production, as hazy fuel cannot be used until the haze settles or is removed, which creates costly scheduling and shipping delays. This project will develop a novel membrane process for the removal of dissolved and dispersed ...

  7. Nano-Scale High-Surface-Area Thermal and Conductive Ceramics as Effectice Support for Metal Oxide Catalysts in Alkane Selective Oxidation

    SBC: Evernu Technology, Llc            Topic: 07

    Compared with conventional processes used to produce many oxygenated chemicals, processes based on the selective catalytic oxidation of alkanes to produce oxygenates could yield enormous economic, energy, and environmental benefits. However, commercial development of such processes has been hindered, in part, because the excessive heat released by alkane oxidation causes over-oxidation (burning) ...

  8. Graphite Foam Heat Exchanger Technology for Energy Recovery

    SBC: Thermal Centric Corporation            Topic: 11

    The recovery of heat currently wasted in exhaust gases can reduce fuel consumption in almost every commercial and industrial sector. In the electricity generation sector alone, even modest improvements in energy recovery effectiveness would result in billions of dollars in savings annually. New materials made from conductive graphite have created a significant opportunity to produce heat exchang ...
