Chempolis commissions biorefinery
Biorefining technology company Chempolis has commissioned a third-generation biorefinery demonstration plant in Oulu, Finland.
With a total investment of €15 million the biorefinery is expected to reach full production during Q2.
‘The demonstration plant represents the third-generation because it can use the entire vegetable matter and produce a number of biomass-based products and chemicals unlike refineries based on earlier technologies,’ Chempolis president and CEO Esa Rousu says.
Chempolis develops environmentally-friendly biorefining technologies and production solutions, which use non-wood and non-food raw materials, such as straw, reeds, corn stem and bagasse.
Chempolis focuses on paper fibre and pulp, but there is growing international interest in new biofuel production technologies.
