Abstract: A system and a process for the production of ethanol and related products from lignocellulosic biomasses (second generation—2G-ethanol), particularly from sugarcane bagasse and straw is provided, however not limited thereto, integrated with conventional processes for the production of ethanol (first generation—1G-ethanol) such as, for example, from sugarcane juice and/or molasses (either in sugar and ethanol plants or in autonomous distilleries), corn, grain, wheat, sugary sorghum, white beetroot, among others, including the recovery/reuse of streams and effluents. More specifically, an integrated process for the production of ethanol and related products where the process warrants increased efficiency particularly in the use of the raw material, steam, electric power and treated water is provided.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a system and a process for the production of ethanol and related products from lignocellulosic biomasses (second generation—2G—ethanol), particularly from sugarcane bagasse and straw, however not limited thereto, integrated with conventional processes for the production of ethanol (first generation—1G—ethanol) such as, for example, from sugarcane juice and/or molasses (a process that is typically Brazilian, either in sugar and ethanol plants or in autonomous distilleries), corn, grain, wheat, sugary sorghum, white beetroot, among others, comprising the recovery/reuse of streams and effluents. More specifically, the present invention refers to an integrated process for the production of ethanol and related products where the said process warrants increased efficiency particularly in the use of the raw material, steam, electric power and treated water.

Abstract: A cleaning apparatus for a chenille production machine has a yarn fabricating head enclosure that includes a base member positioned in parallel and in close proximity with a back side of the yarn fabricating head and fixedly mounted to the supporting frame, a body member circumferentially encompassing the yarn fabricating head and fixed to the base member, and a cover member secured to the body member to enclose the fabricating head for collecting the fabricating dust. The cover member has at least one opening port for direct removal of the dust. A dust evacuating system is associated with the opening port. The dust evacuating system has a guiding member that is positioned within the cover member to direct the dust from the enclosure to a hose connected to an exhaust system. The cleaning apparatus optionally includes an automatic purge system which provides an automated cleaning service of the yarn fabricating head in a predetermined time intervals and for a predetermined duration.
