Our leading partner Graanul Biotech CEO Raul Kirjanen will talk today @BBISF19 about the need for stable policies in bioeconomy @BBI2020 #bioeconomy

🗨 Raul Kirjanen (AS Graanul Invest / OÜ Graanul Biotech): ‘Forests 🌲🌳 are the cornerstone of the #bioeconomy 🌱 and defence against #climatechange 🌍. That’s why we need uniform and pan-European policies about them and sustained continental cooperation.' #BBISF19

It has been a great year for the SWEETWOODS. Our flagship plant civil works are almost ready and several milestones on sugars and lignin applications were met. This could not be done without our create consortium and support from @BBI2020

SWEETWOODS 's project aim? To demonstrate on an industrial scale, how novel pre-treatment #technology in combination with innovative enzymatic #solutions will provide sugar recovery levels of over 90% and exceptionally high-quality lignin ! ow.ly/Appj50ypqBp

Our consortium is all set to start our day @BBI2020 for the project review meeting. A busy day ahead exchanging information.

Hand sanitizer and our consortium members relaxing at @BBI2020 office after the review meeting. On track to implement our innovative technology at full industrial scale to create new sustainable value chains. We´ll keep you updated!

SWEETWOODS flagship plant construction works have been finished and key equipment installation is nearly completed. All preparations are in place to start with commissioning as soon as pandemic related restrictions allow! @BBI2020 sweetwoods.eu/sweetwoods-pro…

In the report, the SWEETWOODS project has been brought out by Portuguese stakeholders as a good example of how forest residues are used to produce high-quality lignin and wood sugars.

The BBI JU-funded SWEETWOODS project is building a #flagship #biorefinery in Imavere, #Estonia 🇪🇪. The plant is using wood residues to produce #biobased 🌱 lignin & sugars that, once processed, can replace fossil-based chemicals ✅.

We have defined a new product avenue from our wood fractionation flagship and we are looking for Speciality Cellulose Development Manager to join Graanul Biotech team in Estonia or remotely from anywhere in Europe. linkedin.com/jobs/view/2491…

Project partners Global Bioenergies and Graanul Biotech have initiated demo scale IBN fermentation production campaigns. @BBI2020 #sustainable #innovation #flagship sweetwoods.eu/sweetwoods-pro…

SWEETWOODS biorefinery lignin has entered a new value-chain through flagship project #VIOBOND. Graanul Biotech is the partner supplying different lignin qualities to VIOBOND consortium for the development of a new lignin phenol-formaldehyde resin plant. sweetwoods.eu/sweetwoods-lig…

Traditional processing industries use only 40-50% of the wood for products, burning the leftovers to generate heat & electricity for the production plants. However, #wood residues contain #lignin & #sugars that could be turned into high-quality #biobased products👇 [1/2]

Our SWEETWOODS project is building a #biorefinery in #Estonia that will help reach the full potential of all the tree parts & #waste. Read more: bbi.europa.eu/cbe-ju-sweetwo… [2/2]
