A Category-theoretic Tool for Manufacturing Information Integration
SBC: CATEGORICAL INFORMATICS, INC. Topic: 90101Category theory has recently been successfully applied to translate information from one computer system to another. Researchers at MIT have developed a prototype software tool based on category theory for solving information-integration programs. The tool has successfully solved small-scale information-integration problems including a problem identified by NIST about enriching the manufacturing s ...

Rapid and Low-Cost Field Toxin Analysis to Monitor Harmful Algal Blooms
SBC: GINER INC Topic: 812Brevetoxins are a group of marine algal toxic compounds that are produced by microscopic dinoflagellate algae such as Karenia brevis. During harmful algal blooms (HAB), brevetoxins reach concentrations high enough to cause human neurological and gastrointestinal illnesses through inhalation of the airborne toxins or consumption of contaminated shellfish. The timely recognition of this toxin in mar ...

A satellite Charging Assessment Tool (SatCAT)
SBC: SPACE HAZARDS APPLICATIONS LLC Topic: 842Our purpose is to give government decision makers as well as satellite industry operators and designers a tool for assessing and mitigating space weather effects on satellites. Satellite engineers employ a variety of strategies to safeguard their assets from space weather but avoiding all impacts is not feasible. One consequence is that satellites quickly become electrically charged. Resultant bre ...

Tofu-tolerant Mariculture: Genomics-assisted Breeding of a High-Quality Marine Finfish for Enhanced Performance on Sustainable, Scalable Soy-based Feeds
SBC: OCEAN ERA INC Topic: 811While certain forage fisheries remain sustainable and well-maintained, they clearly are not scalable – to expand domestic marine aquaculture and increase the nation’s seafood security, aquafeed formulations must be adapted to make greater use of sustainable agriculture proteins and oils produced in America’s heartland. Kampachi Farms and University of Nebraska have been working jointly to re ...

Development of a sensor interface, communication and a power module- a SensorCSP module.
SBC: BOULDER ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY, LLC Topic: 852Many applications in areas such as geophysics, biology, agriculture, security, and others require long-term observations of parameters at a distant location where power or communication links are not available and are impractical or too expensive to install. Examples for such measurements are various in situ measurements in the middle of the ocean on a buoy or ship, measurements of soil moisture, ...

The Marine Debris and Small Object Mapping (DSOM) Radar System
SBC: REMOTE SENSING SOLUTIONS, INC. Topic: 824Remote Sensing Solutions (RSS) proposes to design and evaluate the Debris and Small Object Mapping (DSOM) Radar System. DSOM Radar System is a wide swath sensor for accurate detection and mapping of marine debris and objects in our oceans, coastal waters, inland waters and marine navigation routes. The DSOM Radar System will employ an innovative measurement technique that not only will enable it t ...

Engineering Structures for Offshore Macroalgae Farming
SBC: C.A. GOUDEY & ASSOCIATES Topic: 812This project aims to identify and prove the feasibility of innovative, commercial-scale systems and methods for the cultivation of macroalgae on the high seas. The project team will achieve this goal by identifying candidate areas of the US EEZ that provide favorable conditions for industrial-scale macroalgae production and determine the environmental conditions in those areas that drive system de ...

A Direct Absorption Spectrometer for Low Drift and High Accuracy Measurements of Methane Isot
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 833Atmospheric methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas and ozone precursor that is increasingly important in our understanding and modeling of climate change. Identifying and differentiating methane sources are crucial to any strategies aimed at reducing CH4 emissions. Isotopic composition and ethane content are both dependent upon methane origin, making them valuable diagnostics for source attr ...

Sensor for Rapid Determination of Oxygen Demand in Natural water
SBC: GINER INC Topic: 823Real-time monitoring of organic compounds in water and wastewater is important for management of pollution levels. Current verification measurements relating to the nutrient content of the water cannot be done at frequent intervals or on-site, for example biological oxygen demand (BOD5) yields slow results (five days); another standard method, chemical oxygen demand (COD), uses hazardous chemicals ...

Carbon Nanotube Array-based Nanosensor for Autonomous and Direct Measurement of Carbonate
SBC: Polestar Technologies, Inc. Topic: 825Polestar Technologies Inc. proposes a Phase I Small Business Innovation Research project to develop a deployable sensor for direct measurements of carbonate in saline waters. The designed sensor combines selectivity of carbonate ionophore with the unique structure of a carbon nanotube array. Detection will be based on rapid, inexpensive, low power and precise electrochemical methods. The proposed ...
