TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: Plasma Processing of Water and Inedible Biomass for pH Control and Nutrient Recycling (KSC-TOPS-94)

This opportunity is for a technology transfer licensing opportunity from NASA, where companies can obtain license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market a technology for plasma processing of water and inedible biomass for pH control and nutrient recycling. The technology generates plasma-activated water and ash containing nutrients useful for plant growth. Key aspects of this opportunity include: • The technology allows for the adjustability of pH with one system, which can be used to treat both water and biomass. • The technology can be used as an on-demand, point-of-use method for producing nitric acid. • The technology has potential applications in sanitation, plant growth, and nutrient recycling. • Companies can submit a license application through NASA's Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) to express interest in this opportunity.
