Removal of Ammonia and Water to Enhance Yield of Kinetically-Controlled Beta-Lactam Synthesis
SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: 09cMembrane reactors have the potential to improve reactivity and productivity of various chemical syntheses including enzymatic water sensitive reactions. To be of value, higher use temperature, improved chemical resistance and better mass transfer systems are desired. Using membrane systems with improved mass transfer, Compact Membrane Systems will evaluate enhancing enzyme reactivity. Working w ...

New Fabrication Technique for Ultrathin Membranes
SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: 12aHigher gas transport membranes would enhance membrane separations, especially those associated with energy savings (e.g., oxygen or nitrogen enriched air). In these systems, gas transport is inversely proportional to the thickness of the membrane¿s active layer. This project will explore a novel route for preparing ultrathin (100-1000 angstroms) membranes with very high selectivity. First, memb ...

Novel Membranes for Enhancing Value of Bio-Oil
SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: 12bBiomass fast pyrolysis fuel (BioOil) is a liquid fuel made from wood chips and the low-grade wood byproducts of timber harvesting. However, when BioOil is stored, its chemicals polymerize, aided by the oxygen present in the BioOil. As a consequence, the viscosity of the BioOil increases over time, and, under extreme conditions, it can become a solid. In addition, the presence of water results i ...

New Membrane Structure for Gas Separations
SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: 12aNatural gas offers cost and environmental benefits over other conventional energy sources and decreases our dependence on oil imports. However, many sources of natural gas also contain large amounts of non-hydrocarbon gases, which make them uneconomical to market. Removal of these non-hydrocarbon impurities, in order to raise low quality raw gas to pipeline quality, could have significant econom ...

Novel Ethanol Dehydration Membranes
SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: 12bThere continues to be a need to produce fuel-grade ethanol from renewable sources. However, the cost of agricultural-based ethanol is quite severe, despite the fact that existing and new legislation provides significant incentives for its use. This project addresses novel routes to enhance the low-cost production of high-quality dry-fuel-grade ethanol by means of a novel water-ethanol separation ...

Grid 2.0: Collaboration and Sharing on the Grid
SBC: GALOIS, INC. Topic: 54cGrid computing makes significant computational and data resources accessible to distributed teams of scientific researchers. In doing so, it also poses a challenge: how best to apply social and collaboration software techniques to improve the efficiency of collaboration between distributed teams working on grid systems. In recent years, new social software technologies have produced breakthroug ...

Enhancing site-specific chromosomal integration in clostridia
SBC: ELCRITON, INC Topic: 41aThe bacteria genus, Clostridium, includes many species that are naturally capable of degrading cellulose and producing valuable chemicals and fuel alcohols. Unfortunately the genetic engineering tools for developing improved strains are limited for all clostridia. This project will develop novel approaches for enhancing chromosomal integration in all clostridia species. With an enhanced recombi ...

Xylose Utilization During Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation Enabled by a Parallel Microreactor with Immobilized Enzyme
SBC: Trillium Fiber Fuels, Inc. Topic: N/AConcerns over the escalating use of petroleum-based liquid fuels include climate change, trade imbalances, global security issues, and environmental harm resulting from petroleum extraction and processing. Although ethanol is the leading replacement for petroleum-based gasoline, the current corn-based source of ethanol is hindered by serious social and environmental issues. The production of cel ...

High Efficiency, Large-area, 1550 nm InGaAs Photodiodes
SBC: VOXTEL, INC. Topic: N/AA stable, well characterized InGaAs materials growth and photodetector fabrication process will be used to fabricate matched photodiodes optimized for balanced homodyne detection. The 1-mm-diameter p-i-n photodetectors will be manufactured back-illuminated with a 5-micron absorber, allowing residual light to reflect off the front-side metal to make a double pass through the active layer. Ultra-hig ...
