  • Patent number: 11919196
    Abstract: A manufacturing system includes a tape advancing through the manufacturing system and a station of the manufacturing system. The tape includes a first portion having grains of an inorganic material bound by an organic binder. The station of the manufacturing system receives the first portion of the tape and prepares the tape for sintering by chemically changing the organic binder and/or removing the organic binder from the first portion of the tape, leaving the grains of the inorganic material, to form a second portion of the tape and, at least in part, prepare the tape for sintering.

  • Publication number: 20100184178
    Abstract: The invention features methods for producing isoprene from cultured cells having increased expression levels and/or activity levels of a mevalonate kinase polypeptide and an isoprene synthase polypeptide. The invention also provides methods for producing isoprene from cultured cells having reduced accumulation of intermediates (such as mevalonate, isopentenyl diphosphate, 3,3-dimethylallyl diphosphate, geranyl diphosphate, or farnesyl diphosphate) in the biosynthesis of isoprene or isoprenoids that may otherwise cause undesirable amounts of growth inhibition, toxicity, or cell death. The resulting isoprene compositions may have increased yields and/or purity of isoprene.
