Abstract: Processes are described herein for realizing an enhanced yield of ethanol and co-products from processes for producing ethanol from biomass containing lignocellulosic material. Also described herein are product outputs of these processes having new and useful properties and systems implementing the processes.

Abstract: Processes are described herein for realizing an enhanced yield of ethanol and co-products from the by-products (e.g., stillage) of existing ethanol production processes, particularly processes for producing ethanol from biomass containing lignocellulosic material. Also described herein are product outputs of these processes having new and useful properties and systems implementing the processes.

Abstract: A process and system for the conversion of biomass, such as spent brewers grain, into ethanol and other commercial products, such as pelletized fuel, biogas, fertilizer, and livestock feed, is disclosed. The method may include biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, fermentation, distillation, and dehydration phases.

Abstract: A reusable support for a batter board member is provided comprising at least one sleeve for receiving a batter board member attached to an elongate spike such that a batter board member received within the sleeve is supported in a substantially vertical orientation when the spike is driven into the ground. Elongate legs may be attached to the sleeve for better stability in the ground and multiple sleeves may be used for better support of the batter board member. A batter board assembly is provided wherein at least two reusable supports are driven into the ground and two batter board members are received in the supports such that the members extend substantially vertically from the ground. A horizontal batter board member is then secured between the two vertical batter board members and a control string is attached to the horizontal member. When the batter boards are no longer required, the horizontal members may be detached from the vertical member and the vertical members removed from the reusable supports.
