Dans un mode de réalisation, un procédé de séparation des sous-produits des grains utilisés pour la production d'alcool consiste à soumettre des grains broyés à liquéfaction pour obtenir une solution d'amidon liquéfiée contenant des fibres, des protéines, et des germes. Le germe est séparé de la solution d'amidon liquéfiée. Le germe séparé est broyé, par ex., jusqu'à obtention d'une taille de particules inférieure à 50 microns, pour libérer l'huile et obtenir un mélange germe/huile. Puis, avant fermentation, l'huile est séparée du mélange germe/huile pour obtenir un sous-produit huileux. Le pH du mélange germe/huile peut être ajusté à environ 8~10,5 et/ou des enzymes ou des agents chimiques aptes à rompre les parois cellulaires peuvent être ajoutés pour contribuer à la libération de l'huile contenue dans le germe. Dans un exemple, le rendement d'huile est supérieur à 1,0 lb/Bu.

Abstract: A variable area fan nozzle comprising an array of hinged rigid petals and a petal actuation system in which the principle of actuation is realized by changes in shape (i.e., deformation) of the actuators rather than by movement of cooperating mechanical parts. Because these actuators have no rotating or sliding mechanical components, wear and associated maintenance are reduced. Each deformable actuator has a portion made of shape memory alloy that has been trained to change shape in a specific manner when heated to a temperature above a transition temperature. In addition, each shape memory alloy actuator is shaped to act as a fairing to reduce aerodynamic drag.
