Sekab and Vertoro have begun the construction of a demonstration facility in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. The plant will convert biomass, lignin or residues from the paper and pulp and forestry industry into Goldilocks®, a proprietary blend of ethanol and soluble lignin oligomers.
The production is expected to start in about a year and it will deliver biofuel to the shipping sector as a first off-take for this lignin ethanol oil product.
Companies to Drive a Green Revolution in the World
In this collaboration, two European companies joined forces to drive a green revolution in the world by developing a cost-effective platform. The initiative is to produce sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels, chemicals and materials.
The new technology will break dependence on the fossil oil and use renewable raw materials to replace crude oil-based products. The cooperation is considered to be an important step for the development of a fossil-free society.
