The forest as a source of new climate-friendly products

The forest industry and the forest industry's products play a key role in the development towards a sustainable, bio-based society. Everything that is made of oil can in principle be made of forest. Ulrika Rova, Professor of Biochemical Process Engineering, at Luleå University of Technology and Ann-Britt Edfast, R&D Manager at Sveaskog, lectures on top-level joint research collaborations with the aim of finding new climate-friendly products of forest residues - everything from fish feed and health food to green fuel and bio-coal.

Feedback Friday - a new testbed

Sometimes you're stuck, need input or advice on how to move forward or want a mini panel who can say 'yay' or 'nay'.
On the first Friday of every month, we provide a live testbed here at TGN. This will be a forum where you can test your idea or product on other members. Or even get help with a problem, instant feedback or maybe valuable tips.
