The purpose of the project is to increase the knowledge about various pathways for the chemical pulp industry, for example: production of dissolving pulp as a raw material for textiles, increased production of green electricity or upgrading of extracted hemicellulose/lignin to biofuels or biochemicals.
The results of the project can be expected to strengthen the Scandinavian pulp and paper industry by identifying relevant biorefinery concepts that are energy and cost efficient.
