The present invention relates a process and a system for the point-of-use dilution of microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) from a higher solids content to a lower solids content, for example from a solids content in the range of 5 % weight by weight ("w/w") - 50 % w/w, preferably 5 % w/w - 30 % w/w, further preferably 5 % w/w - 15 % w/w, down to a solids content of below 7 % w/w, preferably below 5 % w/w, preferably to a solids content of 0.01 % w/w - 5 % w/w, further preferably to a solids content of 0.1 % w/w - 3 % w/w. The process at least comprises the following steps: (i) providing microfibrillated cellulose in a solvent, wherein the solids content is in the range of 5 % weight by weight ("w/w") - 50 % w/w, preferably 5 % w/w - 30 % w/w, further preferably 5 w/w - 15 % w/w; (ii) subjecting said microfibrillated cellulose from step (i) to a dilution step in a rotor-stator mixer; (iii) simultaneously to step (ii): injecting solvent into the rotor-stator mixer, or into a volume segment upstream of the rotor-stator mixer, in order to lower the solids content of the microfibrillated cellulose in the rotor-stator mixer.

The present invention relates to a continuous process for the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulosic biomass and to an apparatus for conducting said process. According to the present invention, a steady state is achieved in a reactor in regard to the hydrolysis reaction. Therein, cellulosic biomass of a high total solids content (preferably 10% or higher, further preferably between 15 and 30%) is continually added to said reactor, while at least partially hydrolyzed cellulosic biomass is continually removed from said reactor. The steady state is adjusted, i.e. the amount of cellulosic biomass added and the amount of at least partially hydrolyzed cellulosic biomass removed is adjusted, so that the retention time of a given portion of added cellulosic biomass in the reactor is longer than its “liquefaction time”, i.e. the time period required to transform a solid slurry into a pumpable liquid during hydrolysis, i.e. the time required to lower the viscosity of the slurry to a value, which is acceptable for further processing.

The liquid carbon dioxide miscible liquid is replaced by liquid carbon dioxide under pressure, and the carbon dioxide is removed by evaporation. A device for use therefore is also described.

The invention relates to a method for drying microfibrillated cellulose, comprising at least the following steps: (i) applying a composition comprising microfibrillated cellulose and a liquid onto a cold surface; (H) removing the frozen composition formed in step (i) from said surface to form frozen particles; (iii) optionally increasing the size of the frozen particles formed in step (ii); (iv) drying the frozen particles formed in step (iii) comprising: subjecting said particles to a cold moving gas thus removing liquid by means comprising sublimation and optionally (v) isolating the microfibrillated cellulose formed in step (iv). The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method of the invention.
F26B 5/06 - Drying solid materials or objects by processes not involving the application of heat by evaporation or sublimation of moisture under reduced pressure, e.g. in a vacuum the process involving freezing
The present invention relates to a process for the production of second generation biofuels and/or sugar based chemicals - for example ethanol, butanol etc - and/or materials - for example plastics, single cell proteins etc. - together with sulfonated lignin from lignocellulosic biomass, in particular from lignocellulosic biomass comprising, among others, annual plants, agricultural waste, or wood. In particular, the present invention relates to a process for the production of sugar based chemicals, biofuels or materials together with sulfonated lignin from lignocellulosic biomass comprising the pretreatment of a lignocellulosic biomass in a sulfite cooking step.
