Improved Reactor and Catalyst for Light Alkanes to Olefins and Liquid Fuels
SBC: PRECISION COMBUSTION, INC. Topic: C4722aC47-22a-271388Current manufacturing of ethylene via ethane steam reforming comes with significant energy and carbon emissions costs. A route to low carbon ethylene will have a meaningful impact as ethylene production is the largest world-wide and US chemical process in terms of production volumes, energy consumed, and carbon emitted. This project fits well within an overall strategy for decarboniz ...

SBIR Phase I:A Wearable, Independent, Braille-Assistive Learning Device
SBC: BRAILLEWEAR Topic: HCThe broader/commercial impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is in creating an independent. assistive Braille learning device for blind people. The ability to read Braille is highly correlated with improved independence and quality of life. An estimated 70% of the blind are unemployed yet, of that subpopulation that is Braille literate, only 10% are unemployed. T ...

Multifunctional Ceramic Antifouling, Erosion- and Corrosion-resistant Coating for Hydropower Applications
SBC: NANOIONIX, LLC Topic: C5614bHydroelectric power is the world’s largest source of renewable energy. These massive systems are designed for a 50+ year service life, but this can be shortened substantially by poor water quality and the presence of flowing debris, sediment, minerals, and micro- and macro-organisms. Biofouling (especially from invasive species), corrosion, and erosion (wear) of critical components can limit per ...

X-RAY SOURCE FOR DETECTOR CALIBRATION
SBC: omega-p r&d, Inc. Topic: C5602aThe US Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research and Development agency has an objective to reduce reliance on high-activity commercial and industrial radioactive sources used in calibration systems. One approach to achieve this goal is by use of novel electron accelerators to produce x-rays that can reach the needed gamma-ray dose rate, repeatability, and stability for calibration, while reducing ...
