Coal-Core Composites for Low Cost, Light Weight, Fire-Resistant Panels and Roofing Materials
SBC: SEMPLASTICS EHC LLC Topic: 18cTwo main problems are targeted by the proposed work: (1) the underutilization of coal, a valuable natural resource, has led to a catastrophic drop in employment within the coal industry ecosystem in specific geographic areas in the country; and (2) the need within the insurance-driven roof replacement market for a suitable, light weight, low cost, high durability roofing material.These problems wi ...

Dissimilar Metal Bonding of Corrosion-Resistant Cladding to Structural Materials in Next-Generation Nuclear Reactors
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: 13aAs the United States aging fleet of nuclear reactors approach the end other their lifetimes, a new generation of nuclear reactors (Generation IV) are being developed to ensure national energy security without emissions or pollutants as a byproduct. However, there are many technological hurdles associated with the extreme corrosive environments required by molten salt reactor designs. This presents ...

Conversion of Coal Wastes and Municipal Solids Mixtures by Pyrolytic Torrefaction and Entrained Flow Gasification
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: 19bFor the foreseeable future, the Nation’s energy demand will continue to come largely from indigenous fossil energy resources and hydrocarbon fuels. Specifically waste coal plus other opportunity fuels need to be utilized as a feedstock to eliminate a waste stream and optimized to maximize energy yield and cleanly minimize pollutant emissions. Modular equipment is needed for installation in coal ...

Next-Generation TechNology for the Extremely Efficient Storage, Distribution, and Processing of Nuclear Physics Data
SBC: Accelogic, LLC Topic: 27aMillions of dollars are spent every year in generating the tons of data that are necessary for addressing nuclear physics grand challenge problems at DOE facilities. Due to inherent technical and financial limitations at the “last- mile” of the data delivery pipeline, only a small fraction of these expensive Peta bytes of data is available for immediate access by end-users at any given time. T ...

CO2 to Chemicals: A Hybrid Process for Bioproduct Synthesis From CO2
SBC: Dioxide Materials DBA Dioxide Recycle Topic: 16bThe chemical industry is seeking new domestic feedstocks that are independent of imported oil. Waste CO2 is an abundant and low-cost domestic source of carbon for making chemicals but there is a need for new technologies to cost-effectively capture and convert CO2 into useful materials. The objective of this project will be to develop an economically viable process that converts waste CO2 from sou ...

Additive Manufacturing of High Strength Steel Components for the Small Modular Reactor
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: 29gIt is expected that advanced and additive manufacturing will substantially reduce deployment times of the Small Modular Reactor (SMR). Some estimates predict that deployment schedules could be accelerated by up to 6 months while reducing component fabrication costs by 20% or more through the adoption of advanced and additive manufacturing innovations. However, additive manufactured components are ...

Cross-polarized Near-UV/Vis Detector for In-line Quality Control of PEM Materials
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: 14bModern fuel cells have been in development since the 1960s and stand on the cusp of commercialization, but are held back by high manufacturing costs and expensive catalysts. Membrane costs alone can account for as much as 45% of the total cost of a commercial fuel cell system. Furthermore, manufacturing defects in the membrane can cascade into complete stack failure, which is expensive and time co ...

Advanced, Low-Cost Indoor Heat Exchanger for Geothermal Heat Pump Systems
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: 07aGeothermal heat pumps have the potential to significantly reduce residential and commercial energy usage for space heating, air conditioning, and hot water. The largest barrier to wider adoption of this technology is the high installation cost relative to conventional air conditioners, gas furnaces, and heat pumps. The high cost of geothermal heat pumps is due to the high cost of the ground loop a ...

Integrated Sorbent-based Lithium, Power, and Water Recovery from Geothermal Brines
SBC: STRATOFIRE LC Topic: 17aGeothermal brines used in power generation can be a potential source of critical elements, such as lithium. However, current technological approaches cannot achieve high selectivity of target elements available in trace concentrations from a complex geothermal brine matrix with high concentration of non-desirable mineral content. StratoFire and Southern Research propose to develop and optimize an ...
