    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for recycling and supplementing off-gas from a gas fed reaction process. The systems and methods are particularly useful for bioprocesses that convert hydrogen gas into one or more biosynthetic products. By maintaining separate hydrogen and oxygen feed gas streams, and forming a recycle gas that introduces a target component of the supply gas to the bioreactor within a target concentration range, the yields, productivities, and safety profiles of the bioprocess can be enhanced.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for controlling oxygen concentration during aerobic biosynthesis, e.g., fermentation. The method may comprise feeding an oxygen-containing gas into a vessel including a fermentation feedstock and reacting the fermentation feedstock with the oxygen-containing gas to form a broth including a gaseous phase dispersed within the broth. The gaseous phase may comprise any unreacted oxygen from the oxygen-containing gas. The method further includes reducing the concentration of the unreacted oxygen in the dispersed gaseous phase to less than the limiting oxygen concentration (“LOC”) for flammability before separating the gaseous phase from the fermentation broth. The concentration of the unreacted oxygen in the gaseous phase is reduced by employing oxygen removal schemes or oxygen dilution schemes.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is the preparation of woven fabrics suitable for use in manufacturing vehicle airbags. Such fabrics are woven from a plurality of polymeric, e.g., polyamide, warp and weft tapes which have preferably been slitted, preferably in the machine direction, from a thermoplastic polymer film, and preferably from such a film which has been drawn at least in the machine direction. The resulting fabrics exhibit both the relatively low basis weight, stiffness and small packing volume typical of nylon films, and the relatively high tear strength and high damage tolerance of yarn-based woven airbag fabrics.
