  • High-solids biomass slurry generation for enhanced efficiency hydrolysis processing and equipment design to yield the same
    Patent number: 10501765
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a high solids biomass slurry that is readily pumpable and transportable to downstream processing units, such as chemical and/or biochemical processing units. The slurry is amenable to saccharification efficiencies of >70 % in processing times of <36 hours. Also provided are devices for processing materials, such as the high solids biomass slurry.
    Type: Grant
