Advanced Catalyst Manufacturing Enabled by Direct Joule Heating
SBC: HIGHT-TECH LLC Topic: GAmmonia synthesis reactions, enabled by the Haber-Bosch process, account for approximately 3% of the world’s total energy use. Here, we propose a cascade reactor with a sequence of catalyst compositions which are tailored to a specific stage of the synthesis reaction. The various catalyst compositions are enabled by our novel, direct joule heating process for synthesizing high entropy alloy nano ...

Photosynthetic microorganism-based consortia to capture carbon and build soil organic matter
SBC: MOGENE GREEN CHEMICALS, LC Topic: GMOgene Green Chemicals will develop a novel photosynthetic microorganism-based consortia to capture carbon and build soil organic matter. Intensive agriculture practices, including the removal of residual crops, use of synthetic fertilizer and herbicides, and tillage practices, have led to lost organic matter, increased greenhouse gas emissions, and reduced capacity of the soil to store carbon. If ...

Developing Commercial Quantum Resistance Standard Based on Epitaxial Graphene
SBC: Graphene Waves, LLC Topic: NoneGraphene Waves proposes to develop a quantum Hall resistance (QHR) standard based on graphene that can be deployed for general electrical calibration in industries. Current QHR standard is based on GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure and requires expensive liquid helium to operate. The continuous increase in price and unstable supply chain of liquid helium limit the QHR standard to be only affordable by t ...
