R & D – ‘Development of a process to valorise Lignin’ – A PhD project co-sponsored by Scottish Forestry with Eva Steele, PhD Student, a recent graduate of Biological Sciences from Edinburgh University. First steps have been to analyse the lignin produced from the Oak trials in 2019. Once PP#2 is commissioned we will be working with Sitka Spruce provided by Scottish Forestry and looking at ways to valorise the lignin being produced. A key initiative to producing high value, marketable lignin.
Current Objectives – We are actively looking for strategic investors and partners to scale up the technology to a demonstrator plant. For chemicals companies interested in our products, we have product samples available for sampling if required.
