EUBP Talk #5: Solving the lignin conundrum to create scalable, CAPEX-efficient CO2-reduction in the plastics industry

The fifth EUBP Talk will host Fredrik Malmfors from Lignin Industries, who will cover the topic “Solving the lignin conundrum to create scalable, CAPEX-efficient CO2-reduction in the plastics industry”. It will take place on 04 September 2024.

For decades, the forestry and pulp milling industries have been looking for ways to valorize Lignin. Typically being burnt for energy purposes in pulp mills, Lignin is abundantly available globally and could close the perceived “biomass” gap. Lignin Industries’ patented technology can now reduce 15-40% of fossil raw materials in PE, PP and ABS with more polymers to come. Being a true drop-in material as well as fully recyclable, it helps the plastic industry transition to climate-friendlier materials.
