About this award
Aequor Inc., a San Diego-based women-owned small business, was awarded a $1.25M firm-fixed-price contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory on November 8, 2022, to develop green antibiofilm and antifouling solutions for water treatment applications within the Department of the Air Force. This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase II award, designated as a total small business set-aside, represents a continuation of Aequor's prior Phase I work funded in November 2021 ($49,788) and reflects the Air Force's commitment to advanced water treatment technologies that utilize sustainable, non-toxic alternatives to conventional biocides. The contract is scheduled for completion by October 8, 2025, and will be performed at Aequor's facility in San Diego, California.
The award supports Aequor's development of proprietary green chemical formulations designed to replace toxic and ineffective biocides commonly used in water treatment. As a participant in the SBIR program, Aequor joins a select group of small innovative firms advancing dual-use technologies with potential commercial applications. The company's focus on sustainable water treatment solutions aligns with broader federal initiatives promoting environmental stewardship and green technology innovation. This Phase II award follows Aequor's successful Phase I demonstration and indicates validated technical progress, positioning the company for potential Phase III commercialization efforts and transition to the non-federal sector.
