This technical disclosure describes improvements that would be readily apparent to a Person Having Ordinary Skill In The Art (PHOSITA) when considered in combination with the foundational architecture disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 11,856,972.

Background and Problem Solved

The original patent disclosed a process for preparing Stevia extract compositions with high RebM content. However, these compositions may not be suitable for high-security, disaster relief, or extreme weather conditions due to limitations in production, processing, and packaging. This new invention addresses these limitations by introducing specialized variations and niche solutions for Stevia extract compositions.

Novelty and Inventive Step

The new claims introduce novel and non-obvious variations of the original Stevia extract compositions, tailored to address the specific challenges of high-security, disaster relief, extreme weather conditions, and other specialized environments. These adaptations provide a significant improvement over the original patent, enabling the production of Stevia extract compositions that meet the unique requirements of these environments.

Alternative Embodiments and Variations

Alternative embodiments of the invention may include the use of different Stevia rebaudiana cultivars, variations in the Stevia extract processing unit, or alternative packaging materials for the Stevia-based sweetener compositions. Additionally, the invention could be adapted for use in other specialized environments, such as space exploration or military operations.

Potential Commercial Applications and Market

The invention has significant commercial potential in the food and beverage industry, particularly in the areas of high-security, disaster relief, and extreme weather conditions. The invention could also be applied in other industries, such as pharmaceuticals or cosmetics, where specialized sweetener solutions are required.
