20090038212 | Lignin Dewatering Process - A lignin plastics solids mass containing lignin solids and liquids with up to 85% liquids can be partially dewatered by heating the lignin plastics solids mass to above a critical temperature at which time the lignin plastics solids agglomerate into lower moisture granular solids with between about 45% to 55% liquids releasing excess liquid which can be easily removed from the solids. The process is particularly useful for lignin plastics solids removed from black liquor from paper mills, or for similar lignin plastics solids masses, which can contain up to 85% liquids and which need to be dried to form useful lignin solids, which can be used for example for fuel. The dewatering process can be combined with the process for separating the lignin from the black liquor to separate the dewatered lignin directly from the black liquor. | 02-12-2009 |
20090165370 | Method for Producing a Solid Fuel for Fuel Cells, Method for Controlling Vaporization of a Fuel for Fuel Cells, Solid Fuel for Fuel Cells, and Fuel Cell - A solid fuel for fuel cells is produced by introducing a fuel for fuel cells into a porous material, molding an obtained fuel-carrying material to a predetermined shape and forming a coating film on the surface of an obtained molded fuel-carrying material. Further, a solid fuel for fuel cells is produced by introducing water and a fuel for fuel cells into a porous material, molding an obtained fuel-carrying material to a predetermined shape and forming a coating film on the surface of an obtained molded fuel-carrying material. A solid fuel for fuel cells excellent in handleability can be produced thereby, while the safety of the fuel for fuel cells is improved by controlling the vaporization of the fuel for fuel cells. | 07-02-2009 |
