International Classification:

C10L 5/36
C10L 5/14

Abstract:

A flavor or aroma charcoal material, such as charcoal briquets, which is formulated to include a flavor or aroma component. The charcoal material may include a smoldering agent (e.g., limestone), wood particles (e.g., sawdust), a binder, and the flavor or aroma component (herbs and/or spices). The flavor or aroma charcoal material may not be configured as a fuel charcoal material, for example, it may be substantially void of char and/or coal. In an embodiment, the flavor or aroma charcoal material may be provided as part of a blend of different charcoal materials that includes both flavor or aroma briquets in combination with fuel briquets (e.g., which fuel briquets include char and/or coal, while the flavor briquets do not). The flavor briquets provide enhanced aroma and/or flavor to the grilling experience.

Abstract:

Processes are disclosed for the microbial nitritation of ammonia that attenuate the production of at least one of nitrate anion and nitrous oxide. The processes use an ME biocatalyst having a highly porous, hydrophilic polymeric structure with ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms substantially irreversibly retained therein. The processes are particularly useful for integration with anammox processes.
