- Description
- TECHNOLOGY/BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY Portable Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Generator Opportunity : Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to license and commercialize L LNL's Portable Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Generator technology. Background : With events at Heathrow airport, the 2005 London tube bombing, as well as others hydrogen peroxide based explosive systems have become a concern for transportation safety and security. Hydrogen peroxide detection systems are now being considered for use in screening of personnel and luggage at transit entry points. These detection systems would benefit from improved ways to test the quality assurance and quality control of the detection platform in order to assure the detection system is performing as expected. Description : The Forensic Science Center at LLNL has invented a portable, compact and rugged hydrogen peroxide vapor generator. The system produces a consistent concentration of hydrogen peroxide vapor. The hydrogen peroxide vapor is generated from a safe and easy to maintain source of aqueous hydrogen peroxide and produces a dynamic flow stream at discrete concentrations. Advantages : LLNL's hydrogen peroxide vapor generator provides a source of a known and consistent amount of hydrogen peroxide vapor for performing regular QA/QC tests of hydrogen peroxide vapor detection platforms. LLNL's hydrogen peroxide vapor generator design and colorimetric calibration method is easily adapted to numerous applications. Potential Applications : •· Calibration of detectors used in transportation and shipping screening for liquid explosives •· Hydrogen peroxide detector calibration, testing, and QA/QC for use in the field •· Laboratory testing of hydrogen peroxide detector technology Development Status: A prototype system and quantification method have been developed. LLNL is filing a patent application for this invention. LLNL is seeking industry partners with a demonstrated ability to bring such inventions to the market. Moving critical technology beyond the Laboratory to the commercial world helps our licensees gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. All licensing activities are conducted under policies relating to the strict nondisclosure of company proprietary information. Please visit the IPAC website at http://www.llnl.gov/IPandC/workwithus/partneringprocess.php for more information on working with LLNL and the industrial partnering and technology transfer process. Note: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. Companies interested in commercializing LLNL's Portable Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Generator technology should provide a written statement of interest, which includes the following: 1. Company Name and address. 2. The name, address, and telephone number of a point of contact. •3. A description of corporate expertise and facilities relevant to commercializing this technology. Written responses should be directed to: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Industrial Partnerships Office P.O. Box 808, L-795 Livermore, CA 94551-0808 Attention: FBO 163-08 Please provide your written statement within thirty (30) days from the date this announcement is published to ensure consideration of your interest in LLNL's Portable Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Generator technology.
