About this award
The Office of Naval Research awarded a $6.82 million definitive contract to the University of South Alabama on August 5, 2024, for the continued development of next-generation CO2 capture processes for naval applications. This cost-no-fee contract, with performance based in Mobile, Alabama, extends through September 2026 and responds to the Navy's Long-Range Science and Technology Broad Agency Announcement, which seeks technological advancements to enhance naval and Marine Corps operations. The contract represents a non-set-aside competitive award, demonstrating the university's technical capabilities in developing advanced environmental control and life support technologies critical to submarine and naval vessel operations.
The University of South Alabama is executing this research effort in collaboration with four subcontractors: Triton Systems, Inc. (a small business based in Massachusetts specializing in defense technology development), Western Carolina University (contributing research expertise), Cepeda Associates, Inc. (a maritime component manufacturer headquartered in Kentucky with extensive experience producing CO2 scrubbers and life support systems for naval vessels), and Osmoses Inc. (a Cambridge-based small disadvantaged business specializing in advanced membrane and gas separation technologies). This multi-institutional team leverages complementary expertise in membrane technology, manufacturing, and research to advance CO2 capture capabilities that support extended undersea operations and naval vessel habitability requirements.
