Resumen de: US2025340673A1

Processes disclosed are capable of converting biomass into high-crystallinity nanocellulose with surprisingly low mechanical energy input. In some variations, the process includes fractionating biomass with an acid (such as sulfur dioxide), a solvent (such as ethanol), and water, to generate cellulose-rich solids and a liquid containing hemicellulose and lignin; and mechanically treating the cellulose-rich solids to form nanofibrils and/or nanocrystals. The crystallinity of the nanocellulose material may be 80% or higher, translating into good reinforcing properties for composites. The nanocellulose material may include nanofibrillated cellulose, nanocrystalline cellulose, or both. In some embodiments, the nanocellulose material is hydrophobic via deposition of some lignin onto the cellulose surface. Optionally, sugars derived from amorphous cellulose and hemicellulose may be separately fermented, such as to monomers for various polymers. These polymers may be combined with the nanocellulose to form completely renewable composites.

CEREAL ETHANOL AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING ETHANOL USING WET CEREAL GRAINS

Solicitante: 
RICHETTI RAFAEL [BR]

WO_2025222263_PA

Resumen de: WO2025222263A1

The invention relates to cereal ethanol and to a process for producing ethanol using wet cereal grains, such as corn, barley, rice, oats, rye and wheat, inter alia. The main objective of the process is to increase starch availability for the fermentation process, since it includes anaerobic storage phases of grains obtained directly from the harvest, followed by a maceration phase, thereby allowing alcoholic fermentation to occur naturally from the beginning of the process. This increases starch availability, enabling full utilization of the fermentation potential of the grains, lowering the pH, and allowing their preservation. An additional distinguishing feature is the possiblity of storing the grains after maceration for a period of up to three years, their also being immediately usable. Thus, it is not necessary to dry the grains obtained from the harvest for storage, and, for the production of ethanol using processes known in the art, they no longer need to be rehydrated at the beginning of the process, resulting in technical and environmental advantages due to the drastic reduction in water consumption during the process.

Resumen de: WO2025222271A1

A method and system for size reduction of cohesively fibrous crop straw into homogenously sized straw particles are disclosed. A two-stage processing system comprises a debaling apparatus that removes bale-retaining means and breaks down feedstock into manageable sizes. The material is then transferred to a coarse stage reduction unit where a shearing rotor cuts the straw to a desired first stage size, facilitated by an arcuate discharge filter. The sheared straw is conveyed to a fine stage reduction unit where it is ground to a finished particle size appropriate for pelletization. The system ensures continuous, efficient processing of various fibrous straws such as flax, wheat, barley, and corn stover into fine particles, enhancing the feasibility of biomass pellet production, reducing the energy requirement and mitigating equipment clogging risks.
