摘要:
A process for the extraction of sucralose from an aqueous solution containing at least sucralose, other chlorinated saccharides, sodium chloride and dimethylammonium chloride into an organic solvent for sucralose by contacting said organic solvent with said solution to extract sucralose into the organic solvent. The ratio of sodium chloride to dimethylammonium chloride in the aqueous solution is increased prior to or during contact so as to increase the partition coefficient of sucralose into said organic solvent.

A corn wet-milling process comprises steeping corn kernels in an aqueous liquid, which produces softened corn; milling the softened corn in a first mill, which produces a first milled corn; separating germ from the first milled corn, thereby producing a germ-depleted first milled corn; milling the germ-depleted first milled corn in a second mill, producing a second milled corn; separating the second milled corn into a first starch/protein portion that comprises starch and protein and a first fiber portion that comprises fiber, starch, and protein; milling the first fiber portion in a third mill, which produces a milled fiber material that comprises fiber, starch, and protein; separating at least some of the starch and protein in the milled fiber material from the fiber therein, producing a second fiber portion that comprises fiber and starch and a second starch/protein portion that comprises starch and protein; and contacting the second fiber portion with at least one enzyme to convert at least some of the starch therein to dextrose. The converted material is screened using one or more screens to separate the fiber from the liquor. The liquor can be fermented to ethanol, or refined to dextrose. The fiber can be pressed and dried as an animal feed.
摘要:
A method for extracting energy from biomass depleted of at least some carbohydrate, at least some oil, or both by a) introducing the biomass into a vertically elongated combustion chamber having i) at least one suspension burner at the top of the combustion chamber which is capable of projecting a flame down the axis of the combustion chamber, ii) a heat transfer apparatus having at least a portion of a heat collection surface located radially from the flame and below the burner, and iii) an exhaust opening located below the flame and below at least a portion of the heat collection surface; b) combusting the biomass to yield a mixture containing hot flue gas and molten ash above the exhaust opening; c) transferring heat from the hot flue gas to at least a portion of the heat collection surface substantially by radiation prior to any substantial contact of ash to a surface of the combustion chamber, to yield a mixture containing warm flue gas and non-molten ash and having a lower molten ash content than the mixture yielded by the combusting step; and d) cooling the warm flue gas with cold gas, to yield a mixture containing cool flue gas and non-molten ash and having a lower molten ash content than the mixture yielded by the transferring step.
摘要:
Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) compositions are disclosed comprising TPU polymer, polyisocyanate, and a salt of zirconium phosphate. The compositions have enhanced thermal properties, good processability, and good hydrolysis resistance. Processes are also disclosed to combine the ingredients by melt mixing or to prepare the compositions in-situ as the TPU is being polymerized.
摘要:
A method for maintaining the amplitude of oscillations of a mirror system comprising a high-Q resonant mirror driven by a high speed drive signal. Sensors monitor the sweep amplitude of the high-Q resonant mirror and a parameter of the drive signal is adjusted to maintain the sweep amplitude of the mirror at a constant value. According to one embodiment, the frequency of the drive signal is adjusted to more closely track the resonant frequency of the mirror, and according to another embodiment, the amplitude of the drive signal is increased to increase the amplitude of the sweep motion of the mirror. According to a third embodiment, the sweep amplitude may be maintained by adjusting both the drive signal amplitude and the drive signal frequency.
摘要:
The invention relates to a tourbillon (1) comprising a main bearing (22). A first bearing (18) of the balance axle (19) rotates with the platform (2) of the tourbillon (1), and a second bearing (26) of the balance axle (19) is arranged in a fixed manner.
摘要:
A compact package for a garment made from a delicate material includes a container body having a volume of less than 10 in3 (164 cm3), a delicate material garment, a cover member and a cap. The cover member is inserted into the container body atop the garment, followed by the cap. Preferably, a buffer material is arranged between the garment and the cover member within the container body to protect the garment from damage during the packing process. The package is preferably produced by directing the garment and buffer material into a pre-loading tube, followed by shifting of a plunger member to load the container body with the garment, buffer material and the cover member. Subsequently, the cap is snap-fit upon the container body.
摘要:
A method comprising: (a) extracting a sugar mixture in an aqueous solution of at least 30% HCL/[HCl+water] by weight with an extractant including an S1 solvent; (b) increasing a monomeric sugar to oligomeric sugar ratio in the mixture to produce a monomeric sugar enriched mixture comprising at least 65% monomeric sugars by weight relative to total sugars; and (c) separating an S1/HCl liquid phase comprising more than 30% HCl/[HCl+water] from said sugar mixture.
摘要:
A method comprising: (a) providing a partially processed sucrose crop product containing at least 2% optionally at least 5% of the sucrose content of said crop at harvest on a dry solids basis, cellulose and lignin; (b) hydrolyzing said partially processed crop product with HCl to produce an acid hydrolyzate stream and a lignin stream; and (c) de-acidifying said hydrolyzate stream to produce a de-acidified sugar solution and an HCl recovery stream. Additional, methods, systems and sugar mixtures are also disclosed.
