20120005949 | SOLVENT-ENHANCED BIOMASS LIQUEFACTION - The present invention provides an improved method for solvent liquefaction of biomass to produce liquid products such as transportation fuel. The method uses a novel solvent combination that promotes liquefaction relatively quickly, and it reduces the need to transport large amounts of hydrogen or hydrogen-carrying solvents. It operates at lower pressure than previous methods, does not require a catalyst or hydrogen gas or CO input, and provides very high conversion of biomass into a bio-oil that can be further processed in a petroleum refinery. It also beneficially provides a way to recycle a portion of the crude liquefaction product for use as part of the solvent combination for the biomass liquefaction reaction. | 01-12-2012 |
20140303415 | HIGH PRESSURE FEEDING SYSTEM FOR A LIQUID-BASED BIOMASS TO LIQUID REACTOR - The present disclosure provides methods to transfer a pressurized slurry of plant-based biomass into a reactor vessel. The methods allow for the transfer of practical-sized pieces of biomass in a slurry pressurized to above about 300 psi. | 10-09-2014 |

20130304248 | Method and Apparatus for Automated Configuration of a Monitoring Function of a Machine Tool - System and method for automated provision of a monitoring function for a machining process which is to be executed by a machine tool. A computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) program of the machining process is automatically analyzed by means of a postprocessor in order to determine processing steps to be monitored. At least one monitoring instruction may be automatically inserted into a control program of the machine tool by the postprocessor, wherein the control program is executed during the machining process. | 11-14-2013 |
20150051726 | Method and Apparatus for an Automated Configuration of a Monitoring Function of an Industrial Robot - The invention refers to a method for an automated provision of a monitoring function for a processing process which is to be performed by an industrial robot, wherein the method comprises the following steps: (a) analyzing a computer aided manufacturing (CAM) program of the processing process with respect to processing steps which are to be monitored by means of a post processor; and (b) inserting at least one monitoring instruction which is executed when performing the processing process into a control program of the industrial robot by means of the post processor. | 02-19-2015 |
