  1. Optimizing Best Management Practices and Cultivar Selection for Midwest Hops Production

    SBC: Midwest Hop Producers LLC            Topic: 82

    In the United States, more than 90% of hop production occurs in the Pacific Northwest. Cultivars and best management practices are optimized for that growing environment, but may not be suitable for other growing regions. Hops contribute the bitter and aromatic flavors to beer. The craft beer industry is on the rise, with consistent growth over the past five years. Craft brewers desire locally sou ...

  2. Development Of a Rapid On-Site Diagnostic Test to Detect Small Ruminant Lentivirus Antibody In Goat and Sheep Milk

    SBC: VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC TECHNOLOGY, INC            Topic: 83

    Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) cause persistent infection and chronic diseases in sheep and goats that can reduce animal fitness, reproduction, and milk production/quality. A reduction in milk will lead to economic losses for dairies, which is accompanied by a reduction in nutrition for kids and lambs that decreases meat and fiber production. A reduction in reproductive efficiency can lower th ...

  6. Novel Oxidant Product Formulation for Greenhouse Disinfection

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 813

    Greenhouse growers of ornamental plants and food crops must deal with plant diseases that can damage or destroy their produce. Within these enclosed greenhouses re-occurring plant pathogen diseases can be extremely problematic, infectious microbes and algae accumulate on moist surfaces. Disease within a greenhouse can be a key limitation to profitable plant production. Once introduced, pathogen po ...

  7. Enhanced Membranes for Dewatering of Black Liquor

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 81

    Compact Membrane Systems (CMS) proposes to employ membrane systems for pressure-driven separation of water from black liquor to replace the first two stages of existing multiple-effect evaporators. This is a promising approach to considerably reduce the steam energy required for concentration. Membrane materials must withstand high temperature, high salinity and high pH conditions. Fouling of the ...

  8. Dynamic Metabolic Control for the Production of Limonene

    SBC: DMC BIOTECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: 88

    Biorefining is the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable products such as fuels, power, heat, food, feed and value-added chemicals. By producing multiple products, a bio-refinery takes advantage of the various components in biomass and their intermediates therefore maximizing the value derived from the biomass feedstock. A bio-refinery could, for example, produce one or s ...

  9. Development of a Prospective Mobile Automated Video Monitoring System to Reduce Risk of Falls in Rural Critical Access Hospitals

    SBC: NG HEALTH VENTURES, LLC            Topic: 86

    The development of a cost-effective fall prevention system for rural Critical Access Hospitals (CAH) represents a significant opportunity. Patient falls are a common, costly, and serious problem in hospitals and care facilities. CAHs have greater pressures on them over typical urban hospitals due to their typically smaller number of beds and occupancy, older population demographics, smaller operat ...

  10. Honeybee Hive Monitoring System for Varroa Mite Management & Honeybee Health

    SBC: HiveTech Solutions, LLC            Topic: 82

    Honeybees are critical to our economy, food security, and environmental health. The honeybee pollination industry adds more than $15 billion in value to agricultural crops each year. This industry supports an estimated 90-130 crops, the harvest which accounts for up to one-third of the U.S. diet. These valuable pollinators ensure that our diets are plentiful with fruits, nuts, and vegetables. Not ...
