TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER OPPORTUNITY: Solid-State System Efficiently Generates Purified O2 (MSC-TOPS-148)

NASA’s Technology Transfer Program is seeking interest from commercial entities to obtain exclusive or non‑exclusive license rights for a novel solid‑state oxygen generation and compression system developed at Johnson Space Center in partnership with American Oxygen. The technology utilizes a high‑temperature solid‑oxide electrochemical process with an embedded heat‑exchanger that recovers waste heat to pre‑heat incoming air, dramatically lowering power consumption compared with prior methods. No funding is provided; interested parties must submit a license application via NASA’s ATLAS system. This opportunity is primarily for licensing, not a procurement or contract award, and serves to gauge market interest for future commercialization. • Licenses may be granted on exclusive or non‑exclusive basis, potentially covering specific fields of use. • No government funding is attached; the applicant must fund any development, testing, or commercialization activities. • The deadline to submit a license application is August 10, 2027 (15:00 CDT). • Queries should be directed to the Technology Transfer Program via the provided email address.
