Title: Innovations of Raymond Le Van Mao

Introduction

Raymond Le Van Mao is a notable inventor based in Saint-Laurent, Canada. He has made significant contributions to the field of industrial biochemistry, particularly in the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass. With a total of 12 patents to his name, his work has the potential to impact various industries by providing sustainable solutions.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents focuses on the catalytic conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into industrial biochemicals. This invention describes a method for converting lignocellulosic biomass into ethyl esters of carboxylic acids. The process involves treating the biomass with an oxidizing agent in a solution containing acids, alcohols, and water. A catalytic reaction is then performed at elevated temperatures, utilizing a higher concentration of alcohol. This innovative method yields high amounts of ethyl esters, such as those derived from formic, acetic, and levulinic acids, while minimizing the production of unwanted by-products like dialkyl ethers. The oxidizing agent used is preferably a Fenton-type reagent, with hydrogen peroxide activated by Fe (II) or Ti (IV) ions being the most effective. The method also suggests pelleting the biomass material before treatment to enhance efficiency.
