About this opportunity
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking research proposals for advancing sustainable chemistry through its Science To Achieve Results (STAR) Research Program (CFDA #66.509). The EPA is soliciting proposals that address at least two of the following focus areas: data sharing platforms for chemicals and processes, new methods for developing and evaluating sustainable chemical alternatives, and applying life cycle analysis to evaluate alternatives. Proposals must demonstrate how the research will benefit underserved communities and address environmental justice. Selected applicants will be required to make relevant data and publications publicly accessible.
The EPA anticipates funding approximately four awards with a total of $6 million available. Individual award amounts cannot exceed $1.5 million over a three-year period. The deadline for submissions is May 29, 2024.
Synopsis
Sustainable chemistry produces compounds or materials with intentional design, manufacture, use, and end-of-life management. Across their lifecycle, sustainable chemicals promote circularity, meet societal needs, and contribute to economic resilience. The introduction of more sustainable chemical products, processes, and technologies are needed to address emerging and growing challenges and opportunities for the economy, climate action, and environmental justice. This Request for Applications (RFA) is soliciting research for data, methods, and systems that lead to actionable, scalable change toward chemistry, chemicals, and products that support sustainable chemistry.
