Turning biofuel waste into wealth

Post by nayabsharif »

Lignin is a bulky chain of molecules found in wood and is usually discarded during biofuel production. But, the simple addition of formaldehyde could turn it into the main focus.

can we use any other chemical in place of formeldehyde?

Hello. We noticed you are posting multiple questions that seem to be geared toward a more generic discussion of science used in industry but not directly related to a science fair project. This website is specifically for helping students with science fair projects. If you are doing a science fair project, please tell us more about your project. If not, there are other online forums more appropriate for your discussions.

Thank you.
