New innovative lignin industrial applications.

A Latvian company operating in wood and cellulose processing sectors is looking for new innovative ways and areas of lignin industrial applications. The new way of lignin industrial application should expand possibilities of lignin use in industry. The way or technology requested must be fully developed and available for purchase or application. The company is looking for commercial agreement with technical assistance.

In order to expand the business and application of lignin in different industrial processes worldwide, the company is willing to find new ways and technologies to use lignin. The company is looking for possibilities, new methods or technologies to expand application of lignin in other industrial processes than it is usually done today. The main goal is to develop and promote industrial applications of lignin to replace use of petroleum products. The technology or method should be efficient, economic and innovative. The company is looking for commercial agreement with technical assistance.Technical Specifications / Specific technical requirements:The company is interested in any new technology/method to use lignin in different industrial processes instead of petroleum products. The lignin mostly is used in ceramics, agriculture, colors and fertilizers industry, but there is an interest to expand the area of lignin application in other industries as well and to promote lignin utilization as alternative to petroleum products. Technology should be fully developed and ready for implementation.
The solution could be offered as a technology to use lignin instead of petroleum products in different industrial processes or a brand new way/method of lignin application.
