244 SUPPLEMENTATION OF FATTY ACIDS FOR IMPROVING ALCOHOL PRODUCTIVITY US14317249 2014-06-27 US20140363865A1 2014-12-11 Keith H. BURLEW; Robert Dicosimo; Michael Charles Grady; Ranjan Patnaik
Fatty acids derived from biomass at a step in a fermentation process can be added to a fermentation medium comprising a recombinant microorganism that produces a product alcohol. At least one of growth rate and fermentable carbon consumption of the microorganism is greater in the presence of the fatty acids than the growth rate and the fermentable carbon consumption of the microorganism in the absence of the fatty acids. The addition of the fatty acids can increase glucose consumption, and can improve microorganism biomass production (cell growth/density) and growth rate, thereby reducing production time and increasing productivity of the fermentation process.
245 Thin Stillage Clarification US14222678 2014-03-23 US20140319066A1 2014-10-30 Michael B. LoCascio; Ronald K. Dunbar
Systems and methods for improving the quality of solids and liquids recovered at atmospheric pressure and temperature from a stillage stream generated as a by-product of an ethanol production process, the recovered solids having higher bio-available amino and fatty acids than evaporation-produced condensed solubles, the recovered liquids having less total solids and total suspended solids than evaporation-produced condensate. A static mixer includes an input for receiving the stillage stream combined with a GRAS anionic polymer, a cylindrical mixing chamber that controllably mixes the stillage stream and the polymer to generate wet flocculated solids and liquid co-product, and a discharge chute that outputs the wet flocculated solids and liquid co-products onto a moving, gravity filter belt having a membrane surface that separates the output from the static mixer into recovered liquids in the form of clarified, thin stillage and recovered solids in the form of dry flocculated solids.

In a liquid stream capture process for extracting various components in a dry mill ethanol process, a converted mash is separated into sugars/carbohydrates and corn residue by rinsing the converted mash with a dilute solvent stream and, after the sugars/carbohydrates have been separated, oils and proteins are extracted from the corn residue by rinsing the corn residue with a concentrated solvent stream. The dilute solvent stream is a mixture of ethanol and water, and the concentrated solvent stream is pure ethanol.

256 ENZYME ENHANCED CO2 CAPTURE AND DESORPTION PROCESSES US13503808 2011-10-28 US20130203155A1 2013-08-08 Nathalie J.M.C. Penders; Peter W.J. Derks; Geert F. Versteeg; Sylvie Fradette
An enzyme-catalyzed desorption process for releasing CO2 gas from an ion-rich solution containing bicarbonate ions includes providing carbonic anhydrase in the ion-rich solution such that in a desorption unit the carbonic anhydrase is allowed to flow with the ion-rich solution while promoting conversion of the bicarbonate ions into CO2 gas and generating an ion-depleted solution and releasing the CO2 gas and the ion-depleted solution from the desorption unit. A CO2 capture process includes contacting a CO2-containing gas with a solution in an absorption unit, to convert CO2 into ions; feeding an ion-rich solution to a desorption unit wherein carbonic anhydrase is present within the ion-rich solution to generate an ion-depleted solution and, preferably, recycling the ion-depleted solution. Methods of decreasing the CO2 desorption temperature in a desorption unit, decreasing the CO2 desorption reactor size, and decreasing the CO2 desorption energy input in a desorption unit, are also described.

259 Spent grain fuel product and process US13199505 2011-09-01 US20130055622A1 2013-03-07 Geoffrey Larson; Curtis Holmes; Brandon Smith; David D. Wilson
A process of making a fuel product from spent grain from a beer brewing process. In the brewing process, the grain is pulverized to a particle size whose mean particle size is generally in the range of 0.25 mm to 0.6 mm with less than 1% greater than 2 mm. After the brewing sugars are extracted from the grain, the spent grain is pressed against a filter to reduce moisture below sixty-five percent (65%), and then the grain is dried to further reduce its moisture to less than ten percent (10%). The dried spent grain, after the aforementioned processing, is fed into a combustion chamber for a steam boiler that is used for beer brewing, and the spent grain is advanced downward through the combustion chamber with agitation to aid combustion.
