  • Publication number: 20250092333
    Abstract: Cleaning compositions that include a non-functionalized alkyl polyglycoside, a nonionic surfactant system, and water. In certain embodiments, the cleaning compositions are substantially free of alkyl phenol ethoxylates. Additionally, some embodiments of the invention are substantially free of butyl cellosolve. The cleaning composition is capable of removing both proteinaceous food soils and hydrocarbon-based oily soils. The cleaning compositions include a biorenewable, environmentally friendly alternative to nonyl phenol ethoxylates and exhibit superior cleaning of food soils.

  • Patent number: 12122985
    Abstract: The invention discloses cleaning compositions which employ a synergistic combination of an ester solvent, preferably a fatty acid methyl ester in combination with one or more linear alkyl amines. The alkyl amines act as to remove and suspend organic oils which have been burnt or adhered to a surface with heat and may even be used alone as a soil removal agent. The cleaning compositions have particular use in cleaning of distillation towers associated with biofuel, and vegetable oil refining, but also find use in cleaning ovens, food cooking surfaces and even dry cleaning.

  • Publication number: 20230345939
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for biofilm remediation are disclosed. Biofilm is reduced and removed from soiled surfaces by providing to a surface in need an effective amount of a composition comprising a biocidal surfactant and at least one organic solvent. According to the invention, the biofilm remediation compositions reduce and remove biofilm formation by administering a one-step cleaner and disinfectant. The biofilm remediation compositions are stable and effective in concentrated and diluted ready-to-use formulations comprising an anionic sulfated or sulfonated surfactant that is not an organocarboxylic acid, a sparingly soluble organic solvent and optionally a soluble organic solvent.

  • Patent number: 11561772
    Abstract: A computer-implemented low-code development platform is provided including a user interface and having access to a library of step macros configured for user configuration and interconnection via the user interface to generate executable code. Each step macro includes a step configuration generator and an execution code generator. The step configuration generator is configured to generate a step configuration file based on user-configurable data points configurable via the user interface. The execution code generator is configured to generate executable code in the form of a compiled step file configured for storage in memory and execution by a processor of a computing system. The execution code generator receives and inputs the step configuration file into a metaprogramming component configured to interpret the user-configurable data points of the step configuration file and to generate and output the compiled step file.

  • Publication number: 20220372402
    Abstract: A composition comprises from 0.1 to 30 wt-% of one or more amino acids, 0.1 to 30 wt-% of one or more surfactants, and optionally one or more hydrotropes. The amino acids may be selected from arginine (“ARG”), lysine (“LYS”), histidine (“HIS”), glycine (“GLY”), or combinations thereof. The composition can be formulated as a cleaning composition, such as a hard surface cleaner, a floor cleaner, or a degreaser. The composition can be used in a method for treating a surface, where the composition is applied to the surface and allowed to remain on the surface for a length of time, and the surface is then wiped.

  • Publication number: 20210006478
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and associated system is provided for distributed computing platform service management. The method is conducted by an operating system executing on a distributed computing platform accessible to client devices of an organization. The distributed computing platform facilitates access to a centralized or decentralized distributed service by the client devices. The method includes obtaining service level parameters for the service, quantifying risks associated with each parameter and generating a parametric distribution based on the quantified risks. Access is provided to the parametric distribution. The level of service associated with the distributed service is monitored via a centralized or decentralized component adapter. In response to detecting that a service level parameter is breached, a notification of the breach is transmitted to the digital platform.
