Methods For Detoxifying A Lignocellulosic Hydrolysate

View page
US Patent:
20130210102, Aug 15, 2013
Filed:
Feb 12, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/764943
Inventors:
BP Corporation North America Inc. - , US
Yukiko Sato - San Diego CA, US
Karen Kustedjo - San Diego CA, US
Kelvin Wong - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
BP Corporation North America Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
C12P 7/10
US Classification:
435165, 25218231
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods for detoxifying a hydrolysate obtained from a lignocellulosic biomass and methods of producing ethanol from the detoxified hydrolysate. The present methods provide detoxified hydrolysates in which the quantity of compounds that are deleterious to fermenting microorganisms are substantially reduced relative to the starting hydrolysate and in which the amount of total fermentable sugars loss is minimal.

US Patent:
20170057894, Mar 2, 2017
Filed:
Nov 10, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/348160
Inventors:
- Wilmington DE, US
Leslie William Bolton - Hampshire, GB
Ian David Dobson - London, GB
Sarah Richardson Hanson - San Marcus CA, US
Aidan Hurley - East Riding of Yorkshire, GB
Karen Kustedjo - La Jolla CA, US
Andrew Richard Lucy - Brough East Yorkshire, GB
Liang Song - San Diego CA, US
International Classification:
C07C 29/86
C07C 31/12
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing butanol through microbial fermentation, in which the butanol product is removed by extraction into a water immiscible organic extractant during the fermentation. The invention also relates to a method for producing butanol through microbial fermentation, in which the butanol product is removed during the fermentation by extraction into a water-immiscible extractant composition. The invention further relates to compositions comprising a solution of butanol in a water immiscible organic extractant composition.
