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. SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY APPROACH TO CRITICAL METAL EXTRACTION FROM WASTE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS TO ENSURE A ROBUST SUPPLY OF CRITICAL MATERIALS FOR CLEAN ENERGY

    SBC: Infinite Elements, Inc.            Topic: NA

    Most end-of-life electronics (e-waste) end up in landfills where it causes serious environmental problems. While the glass and metals in e-waste components can be recycled, conventional extraction methods rely on energy-intensive processes that are inefficient and expensive when applied to e-waste that contains mixed materials and small amounts of metals. To make e-waste recycling economically via ...

  2. Adaptive Sampling for In Situ Cloud Probe

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: C5326a

    Clouds play a leading role in the Earth's global energy and solar radiation balance and hydrological cycle. Improving cloud models requires detailed information on the cloud microphysical properties, such as droplet size distribution and number density, liquid water content and cloud composition (droplets, ice particles), which can only be provided by aerial in situ measurements. However, for many ...

  3. A High-Performance Superconducting Tunnel Junction (STJ) Soft X-ray Detector for Biological Science.

    SBC: STAR CRYOELECTRONICS, LLC            Topic: C5327a

    A major limiting factor for biological soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is the capability of the available X-ray fluorescence detectors. There is an enormous and largely untapped potential for biological soft (XAS) at synchrotron light sources, as the metal L-edge and light element K- edge transitions in this region often reveal element-specific chemical details that cannot be readily obta ...

  4. Rapid SiC: Room Temperature Roll-to-Roll Production of Polymer-Derived SiC Fibers

    SBC: LUNA LABS USA LLC            Topic: C5421d

    Natural gas turbines typically function at temperatures below 1100°C resulting in fuel-to-energy conversion efficiencies between 30 - 40%, however, if they are operated at temperatures exceeding 1400°C, efficiencies can be as high as 50-60%. The operating temperature of current natural gas turbines is limited by the turbine materials of construction. To enable turbines to operate at higher tempe ...

  5. Development of a cloud-based web-app for wellbore stability analysis

    SBC: OPENSIM TECHNOLOGY LLC            Topic: C5302b

    Wellbore instability issues account for $8 Billion/year costs during drilling hydrocarbon wells and a significant number of delays and safety concerns during operations. While wellbore stability analysis is fundamental to minimize those incidents, most software tools designed for that purpose are in the hands of a few service companies at a very high cost. Furthermore, those tools rely on one-dime ...

  6. Physics-informed AI/ML of geochemical datasets for characterization, parameterization, and prediction of contaminant transport and remediation processes

    SBC: ENVITRACE LLC            Topic: C5301a

    Geochemical processes involve complex interactions between fluid and solid constituents critical for understanding contaminant fate, transport, and remediation. The development of reactive geochemical transport (RGT) models predicting these processes from first principles is challenging and typically requires extensive model calibration against observed site data. In addition, existing numerical R ...

  7. COMMUNITY AND SMALL BUSINESS PARTNER TO REMOVE SYSTEMIC HURDLES TO ECONOMIC DEVELOMENT WITH NOVEL TECHNOLOGY WHICH WILL ACCELERATE INDUSTRIAL DECARBONIZATION

    SBC: CRITERION ENERGY PARTNERS, INC.            Topic: C5407e

    This proposal requests funding to accelerate a small business technology that addresses needs of a community that is systematically overlooked for economic development opportunities due to the region’s “dirty” reputation and heritage as an industrial/petrochemical hub. The region represents a significant concentration of communities with a high index for cancer risk, particulate matter, and ...

  8. Nanocatalysts and Single-Atom Catalysts Development and Manufacturing Assisted by Inexpensive Custom Designed Low-Temperature Plasma

    SBC: POLYKALA TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: C5427a

    Catalysts play a vital role in chemical and energy industries. The global catalyst market size was valued at $35 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4% from 2020 to 2027 [1]. Shifting energy trends towards renewable fuels including hydrogen have propelled the demand for catalysts. Bimetallic nanocatalysts and single-atom catalysts (SACs) have unique ...

  9. Conductor on Molded Barrel (COMB) magnets using Symmetric Tape Round (STAR) Wires

    SBC: AMPEERS LLC            Topic: C5432a

    Fermilab is developing high-temperature superconductor (HTS) accelerator magnets based on the Conductor on Molded Barrel (COMB) magnet technology. This technology, proposed at the beginning of 2019, constrains the cable in dedicated channels on the surfaces of 3D-printed metallic support structures. COMB design ensures precise conductor positioning to produce magnetic fields with high spatial unif ...

  10. Silicon nitride protective coatings for Accident Tolerant Fuels

    SBC: CERIUM LABORATORIES LLC            Topic: C5436p

    Accident tolerant fuels are proposed to extend the coping time of a core during a loss of coolant accident, in addition to providing enhanced resistance to other common reactor transients. Nearterm and long-term improvements in fuel and cladding combinations are proposed by fuel vendors to not only enhance the performance of the core during off-normal events but also to increase fuel efficiency wh ...
