- Description
- Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), operated by Battelle Memorial Institute under contract to the U.S. Department of Energy, solicits interest from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. PNNL may also be available to licensee(s) to assist in further research and development of the technology under a sponsored research agreement or CRADA program. The technology, based on microchannel methodologies and systems, provides an opportunity for the development of fuel reformation systems for fuel cell applications that may include distributed generation, transportation, man-portable and other mobile system applications. The technology can be used to convert hydrocarbon fuels into a form suitable for fuel cells and includes microchannel-based heat management systems, steam and fuel vaporizers, condensers, and chemical reactors, all of which have been successfully demonstrated. The technology is scalable and offers enhanced mass and heat transfer, high processing densities, and low pressure drops. Note: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. Any company interested in licensing this technology must respond with a letter of interest (may be submitted by e-mail) no later than 30 days from the publication date of this Notice summarizing the company's business and technical expertise and motivation for pursuing this opportunity. Companies deemed appropriate will be provided with further information on the technology. Such information may require an executed Nondisclosure Agreement. Respondents wishing to enter into negotiations for a commercial license will be required to submit a business plan for the commercialization of the technology prior to licensee(s) selection and negotiations. Please send letters of interest to the attention of the POC identified within this Notice.
