Solvent extraction of oil from distillers dried grains and methods of using extraction products
A process for extraction of crude oil from distillers dried grain solubles and/or distillers dried grains and producing corn distillers meal that may be used as a livestock supplement is disclosed. For example, the corn distillers meal may be used as a crude protein supplement for use in a livestock feed diet or a poultry feed diet. The solvent extracted crude oil may be suitable for oleochemical processing for personal care and home care products, biodiesel production, and/or renewable diesel production from hydro-treating the extracted oil to make green diesel fuel.
SOLVENT EXTRACTION OF OIL FROM DISTILLERS DRIED GRAINS AND METHODS OF USING EXTRACTION PRODUCTS
A process for extraction of crude oil from distillers dried grain solubles and/or distillers dried grains using a solvent extraction process and producing corn distillers meal that may be used as an animal feed supplement is disclosed. The corn distillers meal may be used as a crude protein supplement for use in a livestock feed diet, poultry feed diet, aquatic feed diet or the like. The solvent extracted crude oil may be suitable for other processes, including oleochemical processing for personal care and home care products, biodiesel production, and/or renewable diesel production from hydro-treating the extracted oil to make green diesel fuel.
Nutritionally Enhanced Isolate from Stabilized Rice Bran and Method of Production
Provided is a nutritionally enhanced derivative (isolate) from Stabilized Rice Bran (SRB) with improved antioxidant, fat and protein levels enhancing both the nutritional and yield values over existing techniques. Also provided is an improved method that utilizes certain enzyme combinations under various time and temperature conditions for extracting these nutritionally enhanced isolates from SRB.
Processes for obtaining microbial oil from microbial cells
Disclosed herein are processes for obtaining a microbial oil comprising one or more polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) from one or more microbial cells by lysing the cells to form a lysed cell composition and then recovering the oil from the lysed cell composition. Further disclosed herein is microbial oil comprising one or more PUFAs that is recovered from microbial cells by at least one process described herein.

ENHANCED PRODUCTION OF LIPIDS BY LIMITATION OF AT LEAST TWO LIMITING NUTRIENT SOURCES
The present invention is directed to a method of enhanced production of lipids by limitation of at least two limiting nutrient sources during the fermentation of the lipids producing cells.
Enzymatic Method for Preparation of Lecithin Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs)
The disclosure discloses an enzymatic method for preparation of lecithin polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and belongs to the technical field of separation and application of enzyme. A heat treatment procedure is added after a reaction substrate is in contact with an enzyme to adjust the ratio of sn-1 lysophospholipid PUFAs to sn-2 lysophospholipid PUFAs in a reaction product and to promote the production of sn-2 lysophospholipid PUFAs, thereby promoting the production of lecithin PUFAs, which greatly increases the production efficiency of lecithin PUFAs and the lecithin PUFA content in the product. With simple operations and high reaction rate, the method can significantly increase the content of lecithin PUFAs in the product, can effectively avoid the oxidation of PUFA, and has high economic benefits and promising industrial application prospects.
ENHANCING PRODUCT STREAMS FROM ETHANOL PRODUCTION
Processes are described herein for realizing an enhanced yield of ethanol and co-products from the by-products (e.g., stillage) of existing ethanol production processes, particularly processes for producing ethanol from biomass containing lignocellulosic material. Also described herein are product outputs of these processes having new and useful properties and systems implementing the processes.
TWO-STAGE PROCESS FOR PRODUCING OIL FROM MICROALGAE
A process for production of biofuels from algae can include cultivating an oil-producing algae by promoting sequential photoautotrophic and heterotrophic growth. The method can further include producing oil by heterotrophic growth of algae wherein the heterotrophic algae growth is achieved by introducing a sugar feed to the oil-producing algae. An algal oil can be extracted from the oil-producing algae, and can be converted to form biodiesel.
