Biorefinery – new products
A biorefinery is a plant that refines wood or other biological raw material along the lines of an oil refinery turning crude oil into petrol and similar products. Bioenergy and biofuels that can replace oil, coal, petrol, diesel, etc. will be the main products of tomorrow’s biorefineries. The idea is to make use of the whole tree, which opens up the possibility of manufacturing a large range of materials and products, including raw materials for bioplastics, textiles, chemicals, paints, foods and medicines.
