SBIR Phase I: Low-cost, waste-resilient polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyester upcycling through macrocyclic chemistry -the broader/commercial impact of this SBIR Phase I project is the development of an efficient recycling technology that converts mixed and contaminated low value polyester textile waste into a high-purity, high value solution. This innovation enhances scientific understanding of recycling through investigation of impurities in plastic waste and the removal of the latter. Commercially, the technology addresses a global market exceeding 100 million metric tons and >$130B per year, where demand for high-quality recycled content is rapidly growing. The initial market focus will be on packaging and textiles, sectors actively seeking cost-effective, virgin-grade recycled plastic. By avoiding costly breakdown into lower value components and high energy inputs, this technology achieves cost parity, providing a sustained competitive advantage over incumbents. IT enables domestic supply chain resiliency, while diverting strategic resources into fuel and energy rather than plastics, and waste away from our waterways. The business model involves direct sales of recycled plastic to converters and brands. Because the recycled plastic meets virgin performance specifications and integrates seamlessly into existing supply chains, IT enables customers to meet recycled c ...

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs set aside part of federal research budgets for small companies. Agencies award them in phases: Phase I tests whether an idea is feasible, Phase II funds development, and Phase III is follow-on work paid for outside the set-aside. STTR awards also require a research institution as a partner.
Every figure on this page is taken from the award's own federal record, linked beside it, as it stood when the page was built: the recipient, its address, the awarding agency and office, the amount obligated so far, the dates and the description. Phase and program are shown as the award's own description states them. The amount can grow later if the agency adds funding to the same award.
