Method to sustain culture activity, gas uptake and improve selectivity for ethanol production during syngas or producer gas fermentation in bioreactors

BACKGROUND Global energy demand continues to rise while fossil fuel reserves decline, heightening the need for sustainable alternatives such as biofuels. Syngas- a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and carbon dioxide (CO2)- can be biologically converted into valuable chemicals including alcohols through microbial fermentation. However,...

Redox-based Meat Discoloration Monitoring Tool

BACKGROUND Meat is a vital food source, rich in protein, minerals, and vitamins, that form a critical component of the human diet. However, meat quality and freshness are largely determined by its color, which consumers worldwide use as a primary indicator when making purchasing or meat use decisions. The red color of fresh meat primarily originates...

Recycled Composite Extruder

TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION The national carpet recycling rate is substantially lower than the amount produced, creating large amounts of carpet waste. This leads to conceiving a method to continuously produce recycled carpet composites. A machine combines carpet and plastic together through compressive force, producing a composite material that shows...

Conductive Organic Threads as Electrical Interconnects for Smart Clothing and Non-metallic Electrodes for Clinical Applications

BACKGROUND Organic conductive fibers are a combination of electric wires and textiles having characteristics of both used to transfer electric current. Conductive fibers consist of a non-conductive or less conductive substrate, which is then either coated or embedded with electrically conductive elements. Because it is thin and flexible, can take many...

Desktop Slide Impactor

BACKGROUND Although impact testing is extensively used in the research, development, and quality control of mechanical structures, slide impactors delivering shear impact on an external surface (i.e., “slide impact”) has not yet been developed. The lack of a commercially available device to evaluate realistic slide impacts means a narrow...

An Eco-Friendly Method to Disrupt Pheromone Perception in Ostrinia nubilalis: Helping Hand to Farmers

BACKGROUND European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis, is a very serious pest of grain corn, sweet corn, and other crops. O. nubilalis accounts for about 5.5 to 8.5 million tons of corn loss per year in Europe and other countries. Introduced to the United States in the 1900s, this pest accounts for 20% of yield loss in North America with damages estimated...
