Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100151112Novel Triglyceride and Fuel Compositions - Triglyceride oils and fuel compositions derived therefrom are disclosed. In some embodiments the novel oils contain levels of medium chain fatty acids such as those having chain lengths of 8, 10, 12, and 14 carbon atoms. Also disclosed are biodiesel and alkane diesel fuels derived from the novel oils. Byproduct animal feeds from the process of manufacturing the novel oils are also disclosed.06-17-2010
20100151535Renewable Chemical Production from Novel Fatty Acid Feedstocks - Disclosed herein are methods of manufacturing renewable chemicals through the manufacture of novel triglyceride oils followed by chemical modification of the oils. Methods such as transesterification, hydrogenation, hydrocracking, deoxygenation, isomerization, interesterification, hydroxylation, hydrolysis and saponification are disclosed. Novel oils containing fatty acid chain lengths of C8, C10, C12 or C14 are also disclosed and are useful as feedstocks in the methods of the invention.06-17-2010
20100151538Cellulosic Cultivation of Oleaginous Microorganisms - Methods are disclosed for cultivation of oleaginous microorganisms on feedstocks including depolymerized cellulosic material such as corn stover, 06-17-2010
20100151539Recombinant Microalgae Cells Producing Novel Oils - Disclosed herein are obligate heterotrophic microalgae cells containing an exogenous gene. In some embodiments the gene is a sucrose utilization gene, and further disclosed are methods of manufacturing triglyceride oils using sugar cane or sugar beets as a feedstock in a heterotrophic fermentation. In other embodiments the feedstock is depolymerized cellulosic material. Also disclosed are cells that produce medium chain fatty acids at levels not produced in non-recombinant cells of the same species and genus.06-17-2010
20100151567Nucleic Acids Useful in the Manufacture of Oil - Novel gene sequences from microalgae are disclosed, as well as novel gene sequences useful in the manufacture of triglyceride oils. Also disclosed are sequences and vectors that allow microalgae to be cultivated on sugar cane and sugar beets as a feedstock. In some embodiments, the vectors are useful for the purpose of performing targeted modifications to the nuclear genome of heterotrophic microalgae.06-17-2010
