R&D Projects
Development of Market Readiness for Lignin Purification Technology (DeAshLignin-DAL)
Scope of the project
Project period: 01.09–31.08.2026
Project funding: EUR 75,000
The project focuses on the DAL technology developed at TalTech, which aims to purify Kraft lignin to a very low ash content (≤0.05%). DAL uses green solvents and has a simpler process compared with competing technologies.
Within the project, the technology’s innovation readiness will be advanced in terms of Commercial Readiness Level (CRL) and Business Readiness Level (BRL) by collecting market feedback, developing the business model, and strengthening the necessary competencies.
As a result of the project, the commercialisation potential of the DAL technology will increase.
