Rapid Expeditionary Biomineralization for Enhanced Land Stabilization (REBELS)
Biomineralization is driven by a natural soil bacteria – when applied to substrates such as sand the microbes adhere to surfaces and build crystalline calcium carbonate (CaCO3). As biocementation solution is added, the crystalline network grows and fuses structural connections between aggregates, resulting in strong cemented surfaces.
CMBlu Energy, Inc.

Adaptive “Chameleon” Coatings to Enable Multi-Environment Space-Ambient Functionality
The technology proposes a new coating concept with adaptive tribological materials that can alter their surfaces to accommodate broad and variable conditions of space environments and temperatures and minimize friction and wear across wide range of conditions. The coating technology can be applied to any surface of interest via spray-deposition.
