  • Patent number: 11946088
    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a method for processing oil crops with rhodotorula, and belongs to the technical field of fermentation. The method includes the step of inoculating the rhodotorula (such as Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Sporidiobolus salmonicolor and Rhodotorula glutinis) that can produce carotenoid into a fermentation medium that contains oil-rich oil crops for solid state fermentation to obtain oil and oil crop meal rich in carotenoid. The carotenoid as a fermentative metabolite of the rhodotorula has bioactivities of resisting oxidation, preventing vascular sclerosis, enhancing immunity and preventing cancers. Contents of carotenoid in the oil and oil crop meal acquired by the method can be up to 9.071 ?g/g and 8.062 ?g/g correspondingly.

  • Patent number: 11274208
    Abstract: A method for reducing odors including the steps of admixing active agents and a diluting agent to liquid crumb rubber modified bitumen, wherein the active agents comprise 20 to 60 wt.-% of an aldehyde selected from alpha-hexyl cinnamaldehyde, 2-(4-tert.-butylbenzyl) propionaldehyde, 2-benzylidenheptanal, or mixtures thereof, and 10 to 40 wt.-% of one or more alcohols having a boiling point of at least 150° C., calculated on the total weight of active agents. A crumb rubber modified bitumen composition as obtained by the method above. The use of a crumb rubber modified bitumen composition as obtained by the method above in road surfacing and road base materials, in insulating layers for buildings, in roofing materials and/or in sealing sheeting.
