IPC: B29C48/325
Filed: 2007-03-19
Abstract: The object of the invention is a method for the extrusion of preforms (1), which exit from a die gap of an extrusion head (4) delimited by a mandrel (2) and a die ring (3), and are widened in a blow mold (5). The width of the die gap is changed during the extrusion of the preforms, by means of a setting movement of the mandrel and/or of the die ring. The cross-sectional geometry of an elastically deformable sleeve (9) disposed on the extrusion head (4) and delimiting the die gap on the circumference side is also changed during the extrusion of the preforms. By means of setting movements of an additional element (10) that is controlled or regulated separately, the melt distribution on the circumference side is changed at least in that section of the preforms (1) that is widened to form an upper barrel end in the blow mold (5). In this connection, the deformation of the sleeve (9) and the setting movements of the additional element (10) are coordinated with one another in such a manner that the upper region of the barrels widened in the blow mold has no deviations in thickness from default values in the circumference direction.

Inventor: FALLAVOLLITA JOHN ALLAN
IPC: C08H7/00
Filed: 2007-08-01
Abstract: A process is provided for the recovery of holocellulose sugars and a nearnative lignin co-product from lignocellulosic biomass. The cellulose produced from the process is amenable to subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis to produce monomeric sugar units which can be combined with hemicelluloses-derived sugar units to be co-fermented to produce biofuels and/or chemicals. The process can include either single or multiple hydrothermal treatments of the biomass in aqueous solution under pressure at selected pH and temperature conditions to produce a first liquid phase containing mostly hemicellulose sugars, and a first solid stage containing native lignin. The first solid phase can be subjected to an organosolv treatment to produce a second liquid phase containing most of the near-native lignin as a dissolved component, and a second solid phase containing mostly cellulose. The second liquid phase can be processed to recover near-native lignin powder. The second solid phase can be exposed to hydrolysis enzymes and fermentation yeasts and/or recombinant organisms to produce a biofuel or biochemical. The second solid phase can further be combined with the first liquid phase so as to allow simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation of the holocellulose-derived sugars.
