Using Downhole Probes to Locate and Characterize Buried Transuranic and Mixed Low Level Waste
SBC: Applied Physical Sciences Corp. Topic: 26b76059S In order to safely remove transuranic waste (TRU) and mixed low-level waste buried in the subsurface disposal areas (SDAs), it is important to anticipate exactly what materials are directly below the surface. This project will develop neutron-based, logging tools that can identify TRU and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the vicinity of probe holes, thereby permitting safer retrieval ...

A HIGH-EFFICIENCY TECHNIQUE FOR STEAMFLOODING DEEP, HEAVY OIL RESERVOIRS
SBC: Carbotek Inc Topic: N/AA STEAMFLOODING/STEAM GENERATION SYSTEM IS PROPOSED FOR DEEP, HEAVY OIL RESERVOIRS. THIS CONCEPT MINIMIZES THE DOWNHOLE HEAT LOSSES, IMPROVES RELIABILITY AND REDUCES THE COST OF STEAM GENERATION. ITS FEATURES WILL MAKE STEAMING OF VERY DEEP WELLS (BELOW 7500 FEET) TECHNICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE, AND WILL IMPROVE THE ECONOMICS OF SHALLOWER WELL STEAMFLOODING. THIS NOVEL CONCEPT SUPPLIES HEAT ...

Robust Remote Seismic Station
SBC: Geotech Instruments, Llc Topic: 19a75604S The U.S. government sponsors and supports various programs to monitor nuclear explosions through seismic, hydroacoustic, and infrasound data collection stations. These stations are typically deployed in remote areas all over the world. However, current remote data acquisition station technology is limited by (1) poor data quality and reliability and (2) high installation, operation, and ...

An Innovative Technique of Preparing Solar Grade Silicon Wafers from Metallurgical Grade Silicon by In-Situ Purification
SBC: GT Equipment Technologies, Inc. Topic: 39a75655S The photovoltaics (PV) industry is having difficulty finding enough raw materials to match its rapid growth. In addition, traditional sources of secondary grade polysilicon are no longer readily available at inexpensive prices. Reducing the cost of solar silicon wafers is the key to lowering the price of crystalline silicon solar cells. This project will develop a single-step wafer fabr ...

Portable System for Sample Preparation and Differentiation of Pathogens at Strain Level
SBC: LYNNTECH INC. Topic: CBD04107Many believe the greatest threat to our troops and homeland security are attacks using biological weapons. Recent developments of biological warfare agents parallel advances in microbiology, viruses and bacteria can be rendered more lethal through genetic engineering, and many toxins can be mass-produced. However, detecting biological agents is difficult and time consuming because there are thousa ...

Use of Reactive Distillation in Chain Propogation Reactions
SBC: Mc International Research, Inc. Topic: 34a75125S The use of reactive distillation for the Fischer-Tropsch process would have significant technical and economic benefits. Technically, the process would be far simpler than a conventional reactor followed by a hydrocracking unit. Economically, products produced by a Fischer-Tropsch reactive distillation column could be sent directly to a fuels blending unit, bypassing all intermediate ref ...

Increasing Ethylene/Propylene Plant Product Yield via Three Phase Metathesis
SBC: Mpm Technology, Llc Topic: 34a75323B Ethylene is the largest volume petrochemical in the world ¿ some 40 large scale plants operate in the United States alone. Ethylene production is energy-intensive and non-selective, with a number of heavier, lower value products being made. As the price of energy in North America increases, the U.S. ethylene industry becomes less competitive compared to foreign producers. This project w ...

ALL-METAL, DEMOUNTABLE CRYOGENIC SEAL
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: N/AIN MOST CRYOGENIC SYSTEMS, THE PIPING JOINTS IN COLD REGIONSOF THE SYSTEM ARE MADE BY WELDING OR SOLDERING. THIS IS ESSENTIAL BECAUSE EXISTING DESIGNS OF CRYOGENIC PIPE SEALS CANNOT BE RELIED ON NOT TO LEAK. ANY SUCH LEAKS INTO THE COLD BOX REDUCE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INSULATION, THEREBY REDUCING THE EFFICIENCY OF THE REFRIGERATOR. WELDEDJOINTS MAKE REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS DIFFICULT AND HAVE ...

Model-Based Design of Test Systems for Chemical Protective Clothing
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: CBD02202The current methodology for testing the penetration resistance of textile materials to various chemical agents has a number of drawbacks, including significant uncertainties in the resulting data, inefficiency and expense, risk to test personnel, and limited range of test conditions. The objective of the proposed work is to apply unique computer models for textiles with accompanying experimental ...
