Disclosed herein are methods of increasing nitrogen fixation in a non-leguminous plant. The methods can comprise exposing the plant to a plurality of bacteria. Each member of the plurality comprises one or more genetic variations introduced into one or more genes or non-coding polynucleotides of the bacteria's nitrogen fixation or assimilation genetic regulatory network, such that the bacteria are capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen in the presence of exogenous nitrogen. The bacteria are not intergeneric microorganisms. Additionally, the bacteria, in planta, produce 1% or more of the fixed nitrogen in the plant. 1. A method of producing one or more bacteria , comprising:(a) isolating bacteria from tissue or soil of a first plant;(b) introducing genetic variation into one or more of the bacteria to produce one or more variant bacteria;(c) exposing a plurality of plants to the variant bacteria;(d) isolating bacteria from tissue or soil of one of the plurality of plants, wherein the plant from which the bacteria is isolated has an improved trait relative to other plants in the plurality of plants; and(e) repeating steps (b) to (d) with bacteria isolated in step (d).2. The method of clause 1 , wherein the improved trait is enhanced nitrogen fixation in the plant from which bacteria are isolated.3.

CATALYTIC OXIDATION OF NOX/SOX IN FLUE GASES WITH ATMOSPHERIC OXYGEN AS THE OXIDATION REAGENT

Номер: US20200289983A1

The present invention solves the existing problem of using very expensive oxidation reagents, such as HOand ozone, in removal of NOand SOfrom flue gases, by performing simultaneous oxidation of NOand SOwith atmospheric oxygen in a combined system for catalytic oxidation and wet-scrubbing of both NOand SOfrom a flue gas and manufacturing fertilisers. Two major configurations of the oxidation system are disclosed in the present invention. The first configuration operates on oxygen-enriched air to increase efficiency of the oxidation reaction and requires an additional oxygen concentrator unit. The second configuration operates on atmospheric air at ambient conditions and requires an additional catalyst activation unit. In the second configuration, the efficient oxidation process is carried out at low temperatures of about 30-90° C. in the presence of recovered and re-activated catalyst. This temperature is a result of the exothermic character of the reaction, and therefore, no heating is required in the process.
