Biofuels TRIZ Cases

Alpha-glucosidase enzymes hydrolyze alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,6 glucosyl-glucose linkages to boost monosaccharide yield.

Alkyl phenol amine aldehyde condensates inhibit oxidation in unsaturated biofuels, preventing residue formation and discoloration during storage.

Upward fluid flow distributes a slurry catalyst within cellulosic biomass solids to stabilize soluble carbohydrates during hydrothermal digestion.

Engineered xylanase polypeptides resolve low conversion and stability trade-offs by maintaining activity across wide pH ranges and elevated temperatures.

A rotating basket centrifuge separates fiber from slurry using centrifugal force and an internal auger.

Acid treatment neutralizes catalytic alkali metals in biomass, preventing glucose fragmentation and boosting anhydrosugar yields during pyrolysis.

Recycling the condensing liquid reduces biodiesel consumption while stabilizing bio-oil composition for fuel standards.

A mobile vehicle processes wood into biochar via pyrolysis and inserts it directly into soil.

Blending light hydrocarbon fractions with bio-diesel lowers viscosity and surface tension for improved atomization.

Aqueous ammonia pretreatment removes inhibitors from biomass, preserving sugar yields for efficient saccharification and fermentation.

Washing separation membranes with acidic aromatic solution prevents clogging and maintains cellulose-derived sugar liquid production.

Blending renewable distillate with mineral feedstocks resolves cold flow and energy density trade-offs during co-processing.
