Volume 4, Issue 8

Feature: Partnering for success
In June Danish industrial enzymes producer Novozymes and Lignol Energy, a company in the cellulosic ethanol sector, signed an R&D agreement to make biofuel from wood chips and other forestry residues. Their ultimate goal: to develop a commercially viable process for making ethanol from forestry waste at a production cost of $2 (€1.5) per gallon, a price competitive with petrol and starch ethanol. Millions of tonnes of woody biomass are readily available, but are currently being underused. This waste material comes from sources such as beetle killed pine, recycled wood, and residues from the building and lumber industries and pulp and paper mills.
