Description

LignEasy is a startup with a patented technology for producing lignin, a low carbon footprint bioproduct. LignEasy's portfolio consists of two solutions: a technology package with our patented process for pulp mills and the lignin itself, produced at our pilot facility, which can be used across multiple chemical industries. The current lignin extraction method relies on sulfuric acid, which disrupts the chemical balance in kraft mills, resulting in high capital and operational costs. Our technology is the world’s first sulfuric acid-free system, significantly lowering the costs for mills. The produced lignin also meets the chemical industry's demand for low carbon footprint materials to comply with new stricter regulations.
