20130146049 | PROCESS FOR RECOVERING SUGARS FROM A PRETREATMENT STREAM OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS - The process is for pretreating a lignocellulosic biomass feedstock and comprises: soaking a lignocellulosic biomass feedstock wherein the soaked biomass is present as a mixture with a free liquid and wherein the free liquid comprises at least one dissolved compound selected from the group consisting of glucose, xylose and respective oligomers thereof, washing the mixture of the soaked biomass and the free liquid, wherein at least a portion of the free liquid containing at least one dissolved compound selected from the group consisting of glucose, xylose and respective oligomers thereof is separated from the soaked biomass to create a soaked washed biomass and at least one free liquid stream, compressing the soaked biomass to create a released liquid, separating the released liquid from the soaked biomass, and keeping at least a portion of the released liquid separate from any free liquid. | 06-13-2013 |
20130158253 | PROCESS FOR RECOVERING SUGARS FROM A PRETREATMENT STREAM OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS - This specification discloses an improved method for conducting the removal of C5 xylan based sugars from biomass. The improved method involves a series of soakings and washings of the biomass as opposed to conducting one soaking and washing step. | 06-20-2013 |
20130168602 | Pre-soaking process for biomass conversion - An improved method of conducting the pre-soaking step involving pre-soaking the ligno-cellulosic biomass in a liquid (water) at a temperature in the range of between 100° C. to 150° C. prior to soaking at higher temperatures. This material can then be soaked and soaked liquid filtered by nano-filtration. When nano-filtration is used, the pre-soak temperature can be in the range of 10° C. to 150° C. | 07-04-2013 |
20130313472 | PRE-TREATED BIOMASS HAVING ENHANCED ENZYME ACCESSIBILITY - This invention is to a biomass composition of 5 and 6 carbon sugars, lignin, and cellulose which has been steam exploded and the composition has a very high enzyme accessibility at 24 hours for hydrolysis. | 11-28-2013 |
