  • CHITIN-GLUCAN COMPLEXES AND METHOD FOR THE PREPARATION THEREOF FROM CHITIN-RICH BIOMATERIALS
    Publication number: 20160122444
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a novel process for the preparation of chitin-glucan or chitosan-glucan complexes from raw materials of biological origin rich in chitin, such as mycelium of micro-fungi and exoskeletons of crustaceans, where the product obtained presents a chitin proportion between 19 and 55% and average molecular weight between 1.7 and 155 kDa.

  • Process for the destruction of toxic residues via oxidation in presence of water and oxygen and continuous mobile unit to treat hazardous compounds
    Patent number: 8541640
    Abstract: Process for the destruction of toxic residues via oxidation in the presence of water and oxygen developed in homogenous phase at temperatures over 374° C. and pressure of at least 220 atmospheres and a continuous mobile unit easily transferred to treat effluents or contaminated media. This mobile unit is composed of a reactor, which includes pressurization, reaction, cooling, depressurization and sampling zones for the destruction of toxic residues like polychloride biphenyls (PCBs), pyridines, and other hazardous compounds.

  • PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF CALCIUM SALT SUSPENSIONS
    Publication number: 20130224279
    Abstract: The current invention is related to a novel process for the production of aqueous suspensions of micro and nanoparticles of calcium salts smaller than 10 ?m particle size, along with a method to enrich nutritional, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical beverages with calcium salts. In the process, an aqueous suspension of calcium salt is subjected to pressurization with critical, subcritical, or supercritical carbon dioxide to increase the solubility of the calcium salt, which has a particle size greater than 30 ?m. The resulting solution is expanded through a nozzle to generate a calcium salt suspension of micro and nanoparticles that is imperceptible to sight and taste.
