Abstract: A system for recycling energy in a production plant includes a distillation device configured to generate a heated vapor in response to distillation and a system configured to recycle heat from the heated vapor back into the production plant. The system for recycling heat can include a fin-fan heat exchanger and a compressor or a heat pump with a heat exchanger configured as an evaporator and a heat exchanger configured as a condenser.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods to separate solids from liquids in a production facility. A process separates components in the process stream by applying non-condensable media to create density differences and then using a mechanical device to separate the solids from the liquids based on the density difference. The process produces the liquids and solids, which may be further processed to create valuable animal feed products.

Abstract: This disclosure describes processes for using biomass feedstock to produce a fermented product and co-products. The process includes washing the biomass feedstock, pretreating the washed feedstock, hydrolysis and fermentation of the pretreated feedstock(s) to produce cellulosic biofuel and co-products. The processes may also include yeast hydrolysis and aerobic propagation.
