- Description
- The Laboratory requires a commercialization plan from all its prospective licensees before licensing its intellectual property. The plan better enables the Laboratory and the prospective licensee to determine and characterize the business fit between their interests. The commercialization plan also provides information for the Laboratory to use in assessing the prospective licensee’s intent and plan to achieve commercial use of the Laboratory Intellectual Property. Finally, the plan provides the Laboratory input on its calculation of value of the intellectual property to both Parties. If a commercialization plan has already been developed, and contains the information requested below, then that plan may be submitted. If no commercialization plan has been developed, then the following worksheet will be of value in defining the commercialization plan. All information provided is considered business proprietary and not available to the public. A method and system for efficient oil spill cleanup are disclosed. Inserting magnetic filings in the oil magnetizes the spilled oil. An electromagnetic boom associated with an oil spill cleanup apparatus are used to create a magnetic field proximate to the electromagnetic boom. The magnetic field draws the magnetized oil toward the boom. The magnetic field is periodically switched on and off to create a pumping effect and draws the magnetized oil to a collection apparatus. The electromagnetic boom is directed through the effected environment using a thruster on the distal end of the boom. U.S. Patent 8,795,519 has been Issued 5 August 2014 Title: Electromagnetic boom and environmental cleanup application for use in conjunction with magnetizable oil Inventor: Arden Ayube Warner http://emop.fnal.gov/index.shtml Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) is currently seeking one or more partners to commercialize its Electromagnetic Boom and Environmental Cleanup Application for use in Conjunction with Magnetizable Oil technology. Fermilab requests that all potential licnsees submit a Commercialization Plan, to be received on or before August 24, 2015. Fermilab will select the most qualified licensees based on a submitted commercialization plan, detailed technology commercialization strategy, and how the submitted plan meets these general selection criteria: Exclusive or non-exclusive by specific application; Technology commercialization strategy (e.g., in-house, partnering with industry leaders, sublicensing, etc.); Business and marketing plan; Financial resources that will be dedicated to this commercialization project; Expertise relevant to this technology; and Management team/product champion. Fermilab's goal is to select the entities that are most qualified and have the necessary experience and resources to successfully commercialize the technology. To begin the application process, complete the Commercialization Plan worksheet and return it as an e-mail attachment to Aaron G. Sauers, CLP at Fermilab on or before August 24, 2015.
