Mass transport in wood components from processed woods(III-3)
Treesearch research themes:
- 1-wood components, 2-biorefinery
Project partners:
- Chalmers, KTH, WWSC
Funding:
- Chalmers stiftelse, KAW
Status:
- Ongoing
Purpose of the project is to study mass transport of ionic liquids into wood pieces and fibers and consequent lignin and hemicellulose transport out from the pieces. Therefore, characterisation techniques to investigate the location of ionic liquids and lignin in the fiber structure are needed to be developed. Examples of such techniques are X-ray imaging, TOF-sims, EPR. This project is part of WWSC(III-3).
