    摘要: A system for the production of ethanol is disclosed. The system comprises a system for recycling water in an ethanol production process. The system may comprise: a water supply that supplies water to the ethanol production process, a cooling tower system that supplies water to the ethanol production process, and a treatment system that supplies water to the ethanol production process. The treatment system may be a reverse osmosis system that supplies a retentate stream to the ethanol production process.

    摘要: Methods and systems for recovering a desired co-product from a feedstock to ethanol production process are provided. The methods involve a multi-step separation of a fermentation-derived feedstock, in which an initial separation produces a discharge stream and an output feed stream including the co-product, and a final separation further purifies the output feed stream while also producing a recycle stream that is reintroduced into the separation process. The systems include at least an initial and at least a final separation device which are in fluid communication in both upstream and downstream directions. The initial separation device separates at least a portion of a non-co-product containing phase from a feed stream comprising the non-co-product containing phase and a co-product containing phase, and the final separation device separates at least a portion of the co-product containing phase from a stream comprising the co-product containing phase and a non-co-product containing phase.

    摘要: A system for conveying biomass is disclosed. The system is configured to convey biomass for collection, transport, or processing. The system contains a housing comprising an opening configured for the entry of biomass, at least one shoe skid configured to offset the housing in a vertical orientation, an apparatus at least partially within the housing comprising at least one rotating blade assembly, and a conduit configured to discharge biomass from the housing so that biomass entering into the housing can be projected by the apparatus through the conduit for collection or transport.

    摘要: Protein feed compositions and methods of making the protein feed compositions are disclosed herein. The protein feed compositions may comprise zein and are derived from a starch-based feedstock-to-ethanol fermentation conversion process such as a corn-to-ethanol conversion process. Methods of making the compositions include performing a starch-based feedstock-to-ethanol fermentation process in a manner that reduces the total heat exposure of the components of the protein composition as compared to a similar process which uses a cooking process to saccharify starch and/or a distillation process to separate the fermentation beer into ethanol and whole stillage. The process may include centrifugation of the fermentation beer resulting in a bulk solids mixture, extraction of a protein composition from the resulting bulk solids mixture, and desolventizing the extracted protein composition.
