    Abstract: The disclosure relates to the field of specialty chemicals and methods for their synthesis. In embodiments, the disclosure provides viable bacterial cells which comprise heterologous dual 3-hydroxy-acyl-ACP dehydratase/isomerases, etc. The disclosure further provides monounsaturated fatty acid derivative molecules produced by the viable bacterial cells which are non-native to the bacterial cells. The disclosure further provides methods for the preparation and production of non-native monounsaturated fatty acid derivative molecules such as e.g., an ω3-monounsaturated fatty acid derivative, an ω5-monounsaturated fatty acid derivative, an ω9-monounsaturated fatty acid derivative, an ω11-monounsaturated fatty acid fatty acid derivative, etc.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the removal of water from and transport of at least one aliphatic diamine comprising the following steps: a) providing a first composition including 60 to 98 wt.-% water and 2 to 40 wt.-% of the at least one aliphatic diamine with two —NH2 groups per molecule, each of them bound to a primary or secondary carbon atom, b) removing water at least partially from said first composition by distillation at a first production location in a distillation apparatus comprising at least two distillation columns operating at different head pressures, thus generating a second composition comprising the diamine and ≤55 wt.-% water, wherein the vapours emerging from the distillation column operating at the higher head pressure are used to evaporate the liquid in the bottoms and/or the feed of a distillation column operating at the lower head pressure at least partially, c) transporting said second composition during a span of time t from the first production location to a second production location, wherein the span of time t including times for optional temporary storage is at least 6 h.
