This document summarizes the findings from the Round Robin on lignin pyrolysis conducted at the ThermalNet meeting in Glasgow, September 20-22, 2006. It outlines the EUROLIGNIN project, which involved 36 members across 16 European countries examining lignin production and characterization. A comprehensive report is available, featuring 500 references, insights into different lignin types, sources, and pyrolysis processes. It also discusses current contacts and potential providers, including Granit S.A. and STFI, highlighting the industry's collaborative efforts to enhance lignin utilization.

Round Robin on Lignin Pyrolysis ThermalNet meeting Glasgow, Scotland, UK 20-22-September 2006 Dietrich Meier
Lignin Round Robin • Facts • EUROLIGNIN, August 2002-July 2005 • 36 members, 16 European countries • report on lignin production in Europe available • 500 references at ILI website • selected protocols for lignin characterization evaluated by round robin • www.ili-lignin.com
Lignin Round Robin • Questions • What kind of lignin? • Who can provide lignin? • What pyrolysis process? • Who can participate?
Potential lignin providers • International Lignin Institute via Granit S.A., Switzerland) • lignin from soda cooking of non-wood biomass • STFI (Sweden) • kraft lignin from the „lignoboost“ process
Status of contacts • ILI contacted beginning of August --> Dr. Abächerli was not available --> new contact via phone with Dr. Barakat from Granit S.A., no response yet as responsible person is currently in U.S. • STFI contact details sent to Doug Elliott
