Lignin as an additive in concrete

The main field of Lignin application is as an additive in concrete. Domsjö’s lignin is characterized by stable and consistent quality, which facilitates the customer's production process. As an additive in concrete, Lignin has two functions. One works as a dispersing agent, improving viscosity and workability, and another, acting as a water reducing agent, increasing concrete strengths, and therefore allows less use of cement.

Lignin for feed industry

Domsjö’s Lignin has excellent properties as a binder which is often used in pelletizing of different materials, such as animal feed. Our manufacturing plant and product qualifies for the European standard HACCP, which is required by the feed industry.

Other fields of application

Lignin is used as a dispersant and complexing agent in a variety of industries such as carbon black, ceramic and in chemicals for agriculture and tannery. The properties of the lignin are also utilized in dust binding and stabilization of unpaved roads.

New Packaging Line

The investment in a new packaging line for lignin has made it possible to deliver the lignin in bags of 25 kilograms. Please watch the clip to see how it is done. The film is produced by Lake Mt. Film.

Our history

Domsjö’s Lignin was traditionally used as biofuel for our own facilities’ production of steam and electricity. A change of ownership at the turn of the millennium raised the concept that the lignin should be sold on the international market and therefore create an entirely new business.

A new business around Lignin Sales was built, where first lignin sales were as a liquid product. In 2009, we invested in our first lignin dryer, which opened opportunities to reach additional markets. Because of increased volume demand, we were able to invest in our second lignin dryer in 2012 and today’s Lignin powder production capacity is 120, 000 ton per annum.

Contributes to a better environment

Lignin is a natural component of the tree. It is extracted using a unique chlorine-free and closed bleaching process in Domsjö’s environmentally friendly facility. The lignin is dried in the most sophisticated spray drier unit, completely driven by biogas from our own biological treatment plant. By replacing oil-based products, Domsjö’s lignin contributes to a better environment.
