  • Publication number: 20220097435
    Abstract: A textile printing method for printing on a fabric, the fabric being a nonwoven fabric containing synthetic fibers. includes a first adhering step of adhering to the fabric by ejecting a dyeing ink by an ink jet method, and a second adhering step of adhering a non-dyeing ink to the fabric. The dyeing ink contains a disperse dye, a water-soluble organic solvent, and water, and the non-dyeing ink contains a water-soluble organic solvent and water. The water-soluble organic solvent contained in the non-dyeing ink contains a glycol-based organic solvent having a HSP value of 13.6 or more, and the content of the glycol-based organic solvent is 80% by mass or more relative to the total amount of the organic solvent contained in the non-dyeing ink. The adhesion position of the dyeing ink and the adhesion position of the non-dyeing ink are at least partially overlapped each other.

  • Patent number: 10941427
    Abstract: A production system for a product selected from a nitrogen-containing product and a fermented and cultured product that does not involve (or can minimize) the transport of liquid ammonia can include: an ammonia synthesis apparatus in which an ammonia-containing gas is synthesized by reaction of a source gas containing hydrogen and nitrogen in the presence of a supported metal catalyst containing as a support one or more selected from the group consisting of: i) a conductive mayenite compound; ii) a two-dimensional electride compound or a precursor thereof; and iii) a complex formed of a support base containing at least one metal oxide selected from ZrO2, TiO2, CeO2, and MgO and a metal amide represented by a formula M(NH2)x (where M represents one or more selected from Li, Na, K, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, and Eu; and x represents a valence number of M) supported by the support base.

  • Publication number: 20200407762
    Abstract: Provided is a novel production system that does not involve, or can minimize, the transport of liquid ammonia in the production of an organic compound or the production of a microorganism by microbial fermentation. A production system for an organic compound or a microorganism includes: an ammonia synthesis apparatus in which an ammonia-containing gas is synthesized by reaction of a source gas containing hydrogen and nitrogen in the presence of a supported ruthenium catalyst; and a culture apparatus that cultures a microorganism having organic compound productivity using ammonia originating from the ammonia-containing gas obtained by using the ammonia synthesis apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10787691
    Abstract: A method for producing an L-amino acid such as L-glutamic acid is provided. An L-amino acid is produced by culturing in a medium a bacterium having an L-amino acid-producing ability, which has been modified so that the activity of a c1795 protein is reduced or the activity of a protein of which the expression is repressed by a c1795 protein is increased, and collecting the L-amino acid from the medium or cells of the bacterium.
