Resumen de: US20260241367A1

The present disclosure provides biorefining systems for co-producing activated carbon along with primary products. A host plant converts a feedstock comprising biomass into primary products and carbon-containing co-products; a modular reactor system pyrolyzes and activates the co-products, to generate activated carbon and pyrolysis off-gas; and an oxidation unit oxidizes the pyrolysis off-gas, generating CO2, H2O, and energy. The energy is recycled and utilized in the host plant, and the CO2 and H2O may be recycled to the reactor system as an activation agent. The host plant may be a saw mill, a pulp and paper plant, a corn wet or dry mill, a sugar production facility, or a food or beverage plant, for example. In some embodiments, the activated carbon is utilized at the host plant to purify one or more primary products, to purify water, to treat a liquid waste stream, and/or to treat a vapor waste stream.

WO_2026170590_A1

Resumen de: WO2026170590A1

Provided is a method for improving the yield of 1,3-butanediol from biosynthesis. The oxygen-depletion-induced endogenous promoter pfnF8 of Escherichia coli is used to drive the expression of key genes in a 1,3-butanediol synthetic pathway, and the expression of genes in the 1,3-butanediol synthetic pathway can be automatically induced by means of cell growth and changes in oxygen levels during the fermentation process, thereby balancing cell growth and the synthesis of 1,3-butanediol. In addition, the method does not require the addition of an exogenous inducer, thereby reducing production costs, and the method is suitable for large-scale industrial production.
