The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Materials Recovery Platform: A geospatial software approach to the circular economy

    SBC: CAN I RECYCLE THIS INC            Topic: 4B

    The Can I Recycle This (CIRT) Materials Recovery Platform is a tech-enabled circular economy solution that aggregates decentralized waste, recycling, recovery and reuse schemes across the U.S. MSW recycling system currently faces a number of challenges, including confusion about what materials can be recycled, recycling infrastructure that has not kept pace with today's diverse and changing waste ...

  2. Phytoremediation of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) via phytoextraction

    SBC: NUTTER & ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: 17NCER3A

    NAI has a strategy to identify plant species best suited for proof-of-concept testing for phytoremediation of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) via phytoextraction. Phytoextraction refers to the uptake and translocation of contaminants in the soil by plant roots into the aboveground portions of plants. Once the phytoextraction concepts are proven at the bench-scale (Phase I) and followed with succe ...

  3. Developmental Neurotox Assay using Scalable Neurons and Astrocytes in High Content Imaging

    SBC: ARUNA BIO, INC.            Topic: B

    There is unmet need for rapid, cost effective in vitro methods to identify chemicals that pose a hazard to the human brain. A number of in vitro assays utilizing primary cells have been tested in an effort to devise effective models to prioritize chemicals for further in depth toxicity studies. However, isolation of primary human neural tissue is cost and labor intensive, and cannot be produced in ...

  5. Commercialization of Solid Acid and Base Catalysts Derived from Biochar Optimized to Produce Biodiesel from Low Cost Oils

    SBC: Down to Earth Energy (formerly Mountain Creek Enterprises)            Topic: 09NCERP1

    Down to Earth Energy will scale up and commercialize reusable and recoverable solid, porous acid and base catalysts for biodiesel production using biochar generated from agricultural and forestry residues (i.e., a sustainable biomass). The Phase I feasibility study using an acid catalyst made from biochar (peanut hulls, pine pellets, and pine chips) showed high efficiency methylation of fats and o ...

  6. Feasibility Study to Produce Biodiesel From Low Cost Oils and New Catalysts Derived from Agricultural & Forestry Residues "Biodiesel Production Feasibility Study- Low Cost Oils and New Catalysts Derived from Agricultural & Forestry Residues

    SBC: Mountain Creek Enterprises            Topic: 08NCERG1

    This research will develop and demonstrate the feasibility of preparing reusable and recoverable solid, porous acid and base catalysts for biodiesel production using activated carbon generated from agricultural and forestry residues (i.e., a sustainable biomass).  These new catalysts will greatly reduce amounts of waste pollutants that are generated compared to current methodology that uses ...

  7. Nanomaterial Solutions for Hot Coal Gas Cleanup

    SBC: ENGI-MAT CO            Topic: 07NCERF1

    Integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) is a new coal gasification technique that efficiently uses the hot (900-1500°C) generated syngas to power both steam and gas turbines. Due to regulations, this syngas must be free of sulfur and purification is normally carried out at reduced temperatures (< 500°C); however, using this temperature requires the cooling and reheating of coal gas, which ...

  8. Use of Surfactant Modified Clay and Zeolite for Treatment of Perchlorate Contaminated Water

    SBC: Planteco Environmental Consultants, LLC            Topic: 06NCERC1

    Perchlorate threatens the drinking water supplies of more than 20 million people in the United States and the number keeps growing. The cost of treating perchlorate and other emergent contaminants in drinking water using ion exchange resins, nanofiltration, and granular activated carbon (GAC) is a growing financial burden to many municipal and regional water boards. PLANTECO Environmental Cons ...

  9. Engineered Magnetic Nanoparticles for Advanced Biosensor Signal Processing and Detection of Waterborne Pathogens

    SBC: ENGI-MAT CO            Topic: 05NCERP1

    The contamination of water resources (drinking, recreational, and agricultural) in developed and/or developing countries, including the United States, necessitates a fast, reliable water safety detection method. The potential use of biological weapons by terrorists to contaminate water supplies is a more recent development that poses additional challenges because such agents are diffi ...

  10. Stormwater Flow Control Device

    SBC: Wet Weather Engineering & Technology, L.L.C. (WWETCO)            Topic: 04NCERP1

    Wet weather pollution is reported to be the largest water quality problem in the nation. In a regulation-driven market, a solution is estimated to be $400 billion for cities and industries to control stormwater and sewer overflows. Studies show that flow control to attenuate hydraulic rates by utilizing available storage will optimize treatment capacity and reduce downstream water qual ...
