Products Comprising Corn Oil And Corn Meal Obtained From Corn

View page
US Patent:
6723370, Apr 20, 2004
Filed:
Jan 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/046856
Inventors:
James Ulrich - Lake Forest IL
Neal T. Jakel - Lake Zurich IL
Joel Ingvalson - Minneapolis MN
Michael J. Tupy - Crystal MN
Doug C. Kotowski - Plymouth MN
Francis Amore - Plymouth MN
Michael J. Beaver - Victoria MN
Eugene J. Fox - Dayton OH
Troy T. Lohrmann - Lake Villa IL
Assignee:
Cargill, Incorporated - Wayzata MN
Renessen LLC - Bannockburn IL
International Classification:
A21D 200
US Classification:
426622
Abstract:
Methods of manufacturing and processing corn oil and corn meal obtained from whole corn are included in useful products. The corn oil is extracted from the whole corn to form the corn meal. The corn oil generally comprises levels of nutrients not found in commercially available corn oils, since most or all of the corn grain, rather than just the germ, is exposed to the extraction process. The corn grain generally includes the steps of flaking corn grain having a total oil content of from about 3% to about 6% and extracting a corn oil from the flaked corn grain.

Method Of Making Hydrogenated Metathesis Products

View page
US Patent:
8115021, Feb 14, 2012
Filed:
Jul 10, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/170818
Inventors:
Michael John Tupy - Crystal MN, US
Francis Amore - Plymouth MN, US
Hiroki Kaido - Eden Prairie MN, US
Xiangsheng Meng - Chanhassen MN, US
Assignee:
Elevance Renewable Sciences, Inc. - Bolingbrook IL
International Classification:
C07C 51/36
US Classification:
554146
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of making hydrogenated metathesis products comprising the steps of: (a) providing a metathesis composition; (b) providing a metathesis catalyst comprising a transition metal; (c) metathesizing at least a portion of the metathesis composition in the presence of the metathesis catalyst to form a first composition comprising one or more metathesis products and a transition metal; (d) hydrogenating at least a portion of the first composition in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst to form a second composition comprising one or more hydrogenated metathesis products, transition metal, and hydrogenation catalyst; and (e) removing at least a portion of the hydrogenation catalyst from the second composition, wherein the removal of the hydrogenation catalyst removes at least a portion of the transition metal of the metathesis catalyst from the second composition.

Chemical Methods For Treating A Metathesis Feedstock

View page
US Patent:
8642824, Feb 4, 2014
Filed:
Aug 11, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/672651
Inventors:
Daniel W. Lemke - Cokato MN, US
Kevin D. Uptain - Edina MN, US
Francis Amore - Plymouth MN, US
Tim Abraham - Minnetonka MN, US
Assignee:
Elevance Renewable Sciences, Inc. - Woodridge IL
International Classification:
C07C 2/00
C11B 3/02
US Classification:
585500, 554175, 554189, 554190, 554191, 554195, 554196, 554161, 585639
Abstract:
Various methods are provided for metathesizing a feedstock. In one aspect, a method includes providing a feedstock comprising a natural oil, chemically treating the feedstock under conditions sufficient to diminish catalyst poisons in the feedstock, and, following the treating, combining a metathesis catalyst with the feedstock under conditions sufficient to metathesize the feedstock.

US Patent:
20020193617, Dec 19, 2002
Filed:
Aug 10, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/927836
Inventors:
James Ulrich - Lake Forest IL, US
Neal Jakel - Lake Zurich IL, US
Troy Lohrmann - Lake Villa IL, US
Douglas Kotowski - Plymouth MN, US
Patrick Adu-Peasah - Gurnee IL, US
Joel Ingvalson - Minneapolis MN, US

Francis Amore - Plymouth MN, US
Stephan Anderson - Minneapolis MN, US
Beth Anderson - Minneapolis MN, US
International Classification:
C11B001/00
A23B004/044
US Classification:
554/012000, 426/463000
Abstract:
Corn oil and corn meal obtained from high oil corn are included in useful products. The corn oil is extracted from the high oil corn to form the corn meal. The corn oil generally comprises levels of nutrients not found in commercially available corn oils, since most or all of the corn grain, rather than just the germ, is exposed to the extraction process. The corn grain generally includes the steps of flaking corn grain having a total oil content of at least about 6 wt. % and extracting a corn oil from the flaked corn grain. The corn oil is useful for making nutritionally enhanced edible oil or cooking oil, lubricants, biodiesel, fuel, cosmetics and oil-based or oil-containing chemical products. The extracted corn meal is useful for making enhanced animal feed rations, snack food, blended food products, cosmetics, and fermentation broth additive.

International Classification:
C11C001/00
A21D002/00
US Classification:
554/010000, 554/020000, 426/622000
Abstract:
Corn oil and corn meal obtained from corn are included in useful products. The corn oil is extracted from the corn to form the corn meal. The corn grain process generally includes the steps of cracking corn grain having a total oil content of from about 3% by weight to about 30% by weight and extracting a corn oil from the cracked corn grain. The corn oil is useful for making nutritionally enhanced edible oil or cooking oil, lubricants, biodiesel, fuel, cosmetics and oil-based or oil-containing chemical products. The extracted corn meal is useful for making enhanced animal feed rations, snack food, blended food products, cosmetics, and fermentation broth additive.
