Rapid, part-per-trillion detection of ethylene oxide in ambient air
SBC: ENTANGLEMENT TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: 2AIn 2016, ethylene oxide (EtO) was determined to have a 100 in a million mutagenic risk factor for a lifetime of continuous exposure at 11 parts-per-trillion by volume (11 pptv or 0.02 ug/m3) by the U.S. EPA. Currently, techniques to quantify ethylene oxide at less than 11 pptv in ambient air are scarce. This SBIR will develop the key components required to ethylene oxide measurements in ambient ai ...

1790nm tunable laser for VOC monitoring
SBC: FREEDOM PHOTONICS LLC Topic: 2AAir toxics, which include a number of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), have been linked to severe health impacts ranging from asthma exacerbations to cancer and premature deaths. In many cases, emissions are localized, and are particularly of concern for communities near industrial sites (which tend to be disproportionately low-income, often with predominantly indigenous or minoritized residents ...

Sorbent Traps for Continuous Measurement of Metal HAP Emissions
SBC: OHIO LUMEX CO INC Topic: 2DDuring this Phase I SBIR research project, Ohio Lumex will develop a sorbent trap method for continuous emissions monitoring of metal hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. If this method is promulgated by EPA, it may also be used as an alternative to Method 29 for short-term testing. Metal HAP emissions from stationary sources are currently determined using emissions factors derived from interm ...

Metal Organic Frameworks for Low‐Cost Radon Mitigation
SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC. Topic: 2EExposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, resulting in about 21,000 deaths annually. This exposure is due to accumulation of radon in the soils below homes and subsequent diffusion or convection into our living spaces. TDA Research, Inc., (TDA) proposes to develop a novel low‐cost radon mitigation system, using a state‐of‐the‐art metal‐organic fra ...

Continuous quantitative methane emission monitor with vent discrimination
SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. Topic: 2FThe hundreds of thousands oil and gas storage tanks and tank batteries at upstream production sites are inadvertent intermittent, generally unmonitored, high flow rate (flux) methane emitters. Their emission rates are poorly quantified. Flux measurements are inhibited by the difficulty of directly accessing emission sources, instrument limitations, and inability to distinguish between unintentiona ...

Ultrahigh Efficacy Air Purifier for Airborne Pathogens
SBC: Sonata Scientific Topic: 3AThe COVID-19 pandemic has heightened awareness of the role airborne pathogens play in transmitting infection and will leave a legacy of focused attention on indoor air quality for the foreseeable future. Indoor enclosed spaces are high-risk environments for increased transmission of aerosolized pathogens like COVID-19, SARS, influenza, and other yet-to-emerge diseases. Many situations, including o ...

A New Photo‐catalyst Based Air Treatment System to Reduce the Risks from Transmission of Viruses and Bacteria
SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC. Topic: 3ATreating the air in common, high traffic areas to eliminate biological contaminants (e.g., virus, bacteria, fungus) could reduce the transmission of airborne diseases. UV germicidal irradiation has been shown to inactivate all types of microorganisms including drug‐sensitive and multi‐drug‐resistant bacteria and different viral strains. TDA Research, in collaboration with Arizona State Unive ...

Human safe, Near-Field Infection Protection (NIP) for Continuous Pathogen Inactivation in air and on surfaces
SBC: XCMR INC Topic: 3AThe COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has exposed weaknesses in society’s ability to rapidly respond to a global public health problem. SARS-CoV-2 and variants are highly contagious and can cause mild to extremely severe disease and death. It is believed that the main route for transmission is aerosol droplets naturally discharged from an infected person. XCMR is developing breakthrough res ...

SBIR Phase 1: Novel biopreservatives to improve the shelf life of dairy products
SBC: Imvela Corp. Topic: 4ASpecific Need for the Technology: This research enables development of a new microbial culture that will produce the world’s first natural microbial bioprotectant product. Retail/consumer/service sees losses (spoilage) of >$162 billion/year, or ~30% of all food, of which around ~20% is dairy6. Chemical preservatives are a principal approach to mitigating spoilage, however because of evolving con ...

Automated Waste Sorting at the Point of Disposal
SBC: CLEANROBOTICS Topic: 4BCleanRobotics seeks to improve the US recycling system by using robotic sorting, powered by object detection, artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to sort up between 2-4 streams (recycling, compost, landfill, etc) at the point of collection. This will improve the collection and sortation of recyclables in the US, where total collection rates are 35% and successful sortation rates a ...
