    Special Notice ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OF SOFTWARE LICENSING OPPORTUNITY Wetlands Geoprocessor: Pioneering Water Purification and Cost Analysis Tool The Department of Energy has issued a special notice for a software licensing opportunity called Wetlands Geoprocessor. This tool is designed to calculate and predict the effectiveness and cost of constructed wetlands in water purification. Constructed wetlands are crucial in mitigating water pollution, particularly from agricultural runoff. However, evaluating their effectiveness and cost has been limited and non-systematic. The Wetlands Geoprocessor addresses this gap by integrating comprehensive scientific data and modeling to provide accurate predictions. This tool is in high demand across various sectors, including environmental agencies, agriculturalists, and urban planners. It offers accurate estimates of nitrate and phosphorus load reductions, detailed cost analysis for wetland installations, and integrates multiple scientific data sources for comprehensive analysis. The Wetlands Geoprocessor is currently in the alpha development stage and requires an expert-level user. To access this pioneering technology and contribute to mutual growth, businesses can partner with Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and license the software. INL offers tailored agreements to support small businesses in their growth and innovation endeavors. By licensing this intellectual property, organizations not only gain access to groundbreaking technology but also contribute to economic development and public welfare. For more information on licensing opportunities and support provided by INL, please contact Andrew Rankin at td@inl.gov.
