Growing Use of Lignin as a Sustainable Energy Source to Aid the Market Growth of Lignin

The rising demand for alternative sources of energy due to the growing concerns regarding climate change is aiding the market growth for lignin. As lignin is one of the most abundant organic materials, it can be deployed as biomass to provide energy in the chemical industry, providing further impetus to the market growth. Moreover, the introduction of new technologies to use lignin as an energy source while effectively separating woody biomass to increase the marketability of wood output are expected to augment the market growth. It is also deployed in the production of liquid wood, which can be used in steering wheel segments, mobile phone housings, and musical instruments, among others, therefore fuelling the market growth. Lignin is combined with various natural fibres, such as hemp and flax, to produce fibres that can remain stable at any temperature. It is also being increasingly used to meet the energy demands in ethanol distillation and biomass pre-treatment in biorefinery plants, which is further propelling the growth of the lignin industry.

 

Lignin: Market Segmentation

Lignin is an organic polymer that is significant in the formation of the cell wall in woods and barks owing to its rigidity and stability. It is typically comprised of coniferyl alcohol, sinapyl alcohol, and paracoumaryl alcohol, among others. Lignin is an integral material employed in the papermaking process.

Development of New Separation Methods of Lignin to Bolster the Growth of the Market

Increasing research activities to develop new conversion methods for the separation of cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose, among others, to enhance the functionality of constituents is significantly contributing to the growth of the lignin industry. Lignin can be converted to energy carriers, such as syngas, to be employed in high molecular mass applications, such as carbon fibres, wood adhesives, and polyurethane foams, which has been catalysing the market growth.

In addition, lignin is extensively used in the production of polymer building blocks as well as monomers such as xylene, benzene, and toluene, among others, hence invigorating the growth of the lignin industry. The potential use of lignin as a binder, owing to its binding and gluing properties in the construction industry is anticipated to fuel the growth of the lignin industry. As lignin contains phenylpropanoids, it is used as a substitute for petroleum-based derivatives in the production of products such as plastics, drugs, and paints, among others, which is providing further impetus to the market growth of lignin.
