摘要
The Canadian pulp and paper industry must identify new value-added products in order to compete. One potential pathway is the forest biorefinery. This paper reviews feedstock availability, novel products easily produced in existing facilities, and existing or emerging technologies. Feedstocks include hemicellulose, lignin, volatile organic compounds, organics in wastewaters, wood resins, and sawmill and forestry residuals. Products include transportation fuels, commodity chemicals, chemical building blocks, specialty chemicals biopolymers, and other novel products. Technologies include chemical, thermochemical and biochemical processes for products such as bioethanol.
