EPA News Release: Delaware Firm Among Recipients of EPA Small Business Grants for New Technologies

Contact:  [email protected]

EPA Awards $2.3 Million in Funding for 21 Small Businesses to Develop Innovative Environmental Technologies

Delaware Firm to Test Novel Technology for Remediating PFAS in Water

PHILADELPHIA, July 19, 2019 – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced $2.3 million in funding for 21 small businesses to develop technologies that will help protect human health and the environment by monitoring air quality, treating drinking water, cleaning up contaminated sites, and creating greener, less toxic materials.

“These funds support small businesses that have developed new technologies to monitor air quality, test for PFAS, and address other pressing environmental challenges,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “Through EPA’s Small Business Innovation Research program, we provide important assistance to entrepreneurs as they develop innovative solutions that will strengthen both environmental protections and economic growth.” 

These 21 small businesses are receiving Phase I contracts from EPA’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, which awards contracts annually through a two-phase competition. Companies compete for a Phase I award of up to $100,000 by submitting research that addresses key environmental issues. After receiving a Phase I award, companies are eligible to compete for a Phase II award of up to $300,000 to further develop and commercialize the technology.

framergy Inc., of Wilmington, Delaware, is one of the 21 recipients of EPA’s research funding.  framergy, in collaboration with Texas A&M University, will develop a novel water pretreatment system which combines the use of a cutting-edge nanostructured sorbent for effective removal of per- and polyfluoralkyl substances, otherwise known as PFAS.  At the heart of the technology is its innovative, chemically stable, metal organic frameworks.

“Our company’s SBIR-funded titanium metal organic frameworks have proven to not only capture PFAS in water systems, but to break them down into safer substances with the help of the sun,” said framergy’s Chief Operating Officer Ray Ozdemir. 

EPA’s SBIR funding supports both the economy and the environment by creating jobs and promoting small businesses to bring environmental technologies to market. For instance, one EPA SBIR small business, GreenTechnologies, LLC, is commercializing a sustainable and innovative treatment and nutrient recovery process for wastewater. Their processes recover nutrients such as phosphorus, carbon and nitrogen in wastewater and convert the excess nutrients into sustainable slow-release fertilizers, branded under the name GreenEdge®, which are being sold commercially throughout the country and internationally.

EPA is one of 11 federal agencies that participate in the SBIR program, enacted in 1982 to strengthen the role of small businesses in federal research and development, create jobs, and promote U.S. technical innovation. To be eligible, a company must be an organized, for-profit U.S. business and have fewer than 500 employees.

EPA News Release: Phila.-based Firm Among 21 Small Businesses Receiving EPA Grants

EPA Awards $2.3 Million in Funding for 21 Small Businesses to Develop Innovative Environmental Technologies

Philadelphia-based Firm to Test Waste Water Treatment Technology

PHILADELPHIA, July 19, 2019 – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced $2.3 million in funding for 21 small businesses to develop technologies that will help protect human health and the environment by monitoring air quality, treating drinking water, cleaning up contaminated sites, and creating greener, less toxic materials.

“These funds support small businesses that have developed new technologies to monitor air quality, test for PFAS, and address other pressing environmental challenges,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “Through EPA’s Small Business Innovation Research program, we provide important assistance to entrepreneurs as they develop innovative solutions that will strengthen both environmental protections and economic growth.”

After receiving a Phase I award, companies are eligible to compete for a Phase II award of up to $300,000 to further develop and commercialize the technology.

AAPlasma, LLC, located at the Pennovation Center in Philadelphia, is one of the 21 recipients of EPA’s research funding.  AAPlasma, with the support of Drexel University’s Nyheim Plasma Institute (NPI), will use the EPA’s SBIR funding opportunity to further develop a waste water treatment technology that offers better public health protection from major factors that lead to antimicrobial risks. 

According to the World Health Organization, antimicrobial resistance is one of the greatest threats to global health.  Antimicrobial resistance refers to the natural ability of bacteria and other microbes to develop resistance to the medicines we use to treat them, and the process is accelerated by inappropriate or excessive use of pharmaceutical products designed to kill unwanted pathogens in humans, animals and crops. In particular, the overuse and misuse of antibiotics in human and animal health is fueling resistance.  

“The EPA SBIR program allows small businesses, like AAPlasma LLC, to put out-of-the-box ideas to the test that could potentially revolutionize the way we approach some of the greatest environmental challenges we face today,” said Charles Bailey, Chief Operations Officer for AAPlasma.  “We at AAPlasma believe our technology can soon be used to affordably and effectively treat wastewater from various sources that are prone to containing antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and rendering it completely safe for reuse. We have the SBIR program to thank for kicking off this possibility.”

EPA’s SBIR funding supports both the economy and the environment by creating jobs and promoting small businesses to bring environmental technologies to market. For instance, one EPA SBIR small business, GreenTechnologies, LLC, is commercializing a sustainable and innovative treatment and nutrient recovery process for wastewater.

EPA awards South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources over $2.5 million grant

Contact: Lisa McClain-Vanderpool, 303-312-6077, [email protected]

EPA awards South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources over $2.5 million to improve water quality and watershed health throughout the state

DENVER (July 17, 2019) – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded $2,574,000 to the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources (SD DENR) to improve water quality in streams, rivers and lakes through a Nonpoint Source Program Clean Water Act (Section 319) grant.  This grant is given to states to implement environmental programs that address various sources of pollution in surface and groundwater in order to meet and maintain water quality standards.

“EPA is partnering with SD DENR to restore water quality throughout five watersheds in the state,” said EPA Regional Administrator Gregory Sopkin. “Water quality across the west is a high priority and by working together on these projects, our impact is that much greater.”

“SD DENR is pleased to continue the Section 319 partnership with EPA,” said SD DENR Secretary Steve Pirner. “The additional grant funds allow for continued development of locally-led projects designed to reduce nonpoint source pollution and improve water quality.”

This grant continues extensive work in all watersheds throughout the state including the Big Sioux, James, Belle Fourche, Missouri, Minnesota, and Vermillion to reduce nonpoint source pollution and improve water quality.  Agriculture is the predominant land use in all these watersheds and is the leading source of nonpoint source pollution, also known as runoff.  The nonpoint source grant provides seed money that is matched by state and local funding, as well as other federal monies, bringing together local landowners and a variety of government agencies, all working towards a common goal of improved water quality.

Nonpoint sources of pollution continue to be recognized as the nation’s largest remaining cause of surface water quality impairments. The effects of nonpoint source pollution can be seen within the lakes, streams, and rivers of South Dakota. In general, the nonpoint source pollutants causing the majority of South Dakota’s surface water quality impairments are pathogens and sediment.

Projects funded include an information and education component, water quality monitoring, and installation of best management practices (BMPs) designed to reduce nonpoint source pollution. BMPs may include activities such as installing riparian buffer strips to filter water before it reaches the lake or stream, installing fencing and providing alternative sources of water to keep livestock out of waterbodies, replacement of flood irrigation systems with high-efficiency sprinkler irrigation systems, and bank stability activities that reduce erosion, as well as other activities designed to directly reduce nonpoint source pollution. Each project has a local coordinator who works with various partner agencies to achieve project goals and develop local support and funds to bolster the project.
