20090099873 | Method and Apparatus for Monitoring Calorie, Nutritent, and Expense of Food Consumption and Effect on Long Term and Short Term State - A system for improving health and monitoring diet has been developed which enables a consumer before making important decisions which effect health to consider health, nutrition, dietary, budget, and time information resources more easily before decisions are made. The system has a variety of user inputs that enable the user to access information easily and enter information easily, so that the personal profile and health history and diet information is up-to-date. This system is adjustable to contain additional modules of information such as dietary restrictions which can be used to regularly recommend or restrict purchase decisions at the point of sale, storage, preparation, or consumption. | 04-16-2009 |

20120202907 | LIGNIN BASED POLYOL FROM BLACK LIQUOR AND GLYCERINE - A composition of waste glycerol and black liquor is disclosed. The composition is separated into two layers: the polyol layer and the aqueous layer. The polyol layer may be reacted with an isocyanate producing polyurethane foam, a polyurethane plastic or other polyurethane material. The glycerol contains one or more of the following compounds in various percentages: alcohols, such as ethanol or methanol, fatty acids, methyl esters, ethyl esters, triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides, where said triglycerides, diglycerides and monoglycerides may be selected from the group of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated. | 08-09-2012 |

20160032525 | PROCESS FOR THE ISOLATION OF LIGNIN FROM BLACK LIQUOR AND MODIFICATION OF THE LIGNIN FOR PLASTIC APPLICATIONS - A process for the isolation of lignin from black liquor and modification of lignin for use in many plastic applications is disclosed. The isolation of lignin consists of removing all of the non-lignin components from black liquor solution. The non-lignin components including but not limited to organic acids, sugars, and inorganic materials can be removed using either solvent extraction or ion-exchange resin or a combination of both methods. The isolated lignin is water soluble. The non-lignin components can be further isolated and sold or reused in the pulping or lignin isolation processes. The isolated lignin can be further modified in order to meet the needs of the desired plastic application. | 02-04-2016 |
