摘要:
The present invention provides a process for purifying a monoterpene or sesquiterpene having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The process comprises the steps of derivatizing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) to produce a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, separating the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, and releasing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) from the derivative. Also encompassed by the scope of the present invention is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The purified monoterpene can be used to treat a disease such as cancer. The present monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) may be administered alone, or may be co-administered with radiation or other therapeutic agents, such as chemotherapeutic agents.

The disclosure is directed to an apparatus and method for recovering ethanol from a fermentation broth. The fermentation broth comprises microbial biomass, ethanol, methanol, ethyl acetate, at least one thiol, and at least one compound having 3 or more carbon atoms. The method comprises separating at least microbial biomass from the fermentation broth to generate a process stream; removing, in any order, from the process stream: ethyl acetate by reacting ethyl acetate with a base compound followed by distillation; at least one thiol by adsorption or reaction to disulfide; methanol by distillation; compounds having 3 or more carbon atoms by distillation; and recovering ethanol by distillation; wherein the distillations may be conducted in a single column or two or more columns.

The present invention relates to oxopiperazines that mimic helix αB of the C-terminal transactivation domain of HIF1α. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing these oxopiperazines and methods of using these oxopiperazines (e.g., to reduce gene transcription, treat or prevent disorders mediated by interaction of HIF1α with CREB-binding protein and/or p300, reduce or prevent angiogenesis in a tissue, induce apoptosis, and decrease cell survival and/or proliferation).

The present invention relates to a process for treating a glycerol solution comprising fatty acid soaps obtained in a biodiesel production process, to obtain a glycerol enriched phase.
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide an industrially advantageous production method of 1,4BG, ensuring that generation of THF in the crude 1,4BG can be also suppressed and at the same time, the concentration of 2-(4-hydroxybutoxy)-tetrahydrofuran can be reduced. The present invention relates to a method for producing 1,4-butanediol, comprising heating crude 1,4-butanediol containing from 0.01 to 0.5 wt % of 2-(4-hydroxybutoxy)-tetrahydrofuran and from 1 to 25 wt % of water at 80° C. or more in the presence of an amine to obtain purified 1,4-butanediol.
摘要:
A process for cleaning contaminated fluid includes combining the contaminated fluid with an acid and water to yield a mixture in which at least some contaminants in the contaminated fluid are insoluble. The insoluble contaminants precipitate to yield precipitated contaminants. At least a portion of the precipitated contaminants are separated from the mixture. At least a portion of the acid and a portion of the water in the mixture are separated from the glycol in the mixture to yield cleaned fluid.
摘要:
A system and method for removing organic carboxylates from a mono ethylene glycol (“MEG”) stream includes a reaction vessel; means for cooling and diluting the MEG stream being routed to the reaction vessel; means for acidifying the cooled and diluted MEG stream during its residence time within the reaction vessel; and means for removing an acetic-rich overhead stream from the reaction vessel. The acidification of the cooled and diluted MEG stream occurs under a vacuum. The reaction vessel may be located downstream of a calcium removal vessel and receive a filtered bottom stream from that vessel, or it may be a single reaction vessel that cycles between a calcium removal mode and an acetate removal mode, with the pressure of the single vessel being greater during the calcium removal mode than during the acetate removal mode.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and systems for remediating one or more impurities (e.g., diacetyl) that are present in manufacturing an alcohol (e.g., ethanol) from cellulosic biomass. The methods and systems include reacting the one or more impurities with at least one treatment compound (e.g., an oxidizing agent, an alkali compound, or a mixture thereof) to form a reaction product that can be separated from the alcohol.
摘要:
A method and system for precipitation and separation of carboxylic acid salts from a hydrate inhibitor solution is disclosed. The method comprises lowering the solubility of the carboxylic acid salts to force precipitation of carboxylic acid salts and separation of the precipitated carboxylic acid salts from the hydrate inhibitor solution.
