Project BioLi2.0 – From lignin to bio-based fuels and chemicals

The strategic innovation programme BioInnovation has been granted its third innovation project – BioLi2.0 –”From lignin to bio-based fuels and chemicals”. The project will develop processes for the production of fuels and chemicals based on renewable lignin as a replacement for fossil fuels and petroleum-based products. The project will contribute to development and scale up of new processes and also evaluate the technical and economic potential for different value chains.
Lignin is the second most common component after cellulose in plants and functions as a skeleton. Around 20-30% of trees and other plants consist of lignin (News Item Innventia, 22 August 2016).
