Lignin is a complex polymer of aromatic alcohols known as monolignols. It is originates in different types and characteristic of hardwoods, softwoods and grasses. In addition, it is found in various types such as low purity lignin, ligNosulphonates (lignosulfonates), kraft lignin, organosolv lignin, and high-grade lignin, depending on their purity. It can be distinguished two categories as sulphur bearing and sulphur-free. It is found in all vascular plants, mostly between the cells, but also within the cells, and in the cell walls. It makes fiber in food, and it is majorly uses for papermaking. It contains carboxylic acids as well as the cellulose fibers.
Europe is the major market for lignin-based products; the demand is centered towards mature economies such as UK and Germany, because of well established application markets in these regions. Lignin is the components of wood, which is a raw materials used in papermaking. Improving biotechnological extraction, technologies along with increasing demand for biochemical feedstocks are estimated to enhance production capabilities in Europe especially in the countries are UK and Germany. This is further supported by capacity expansions of bio-refineries. Growth of niche applications, which include lignin-based phenol, vanillin, animal feed, micronutrients, cleaning chemicals and dye dispersants, is expected to provide market players with immense growth opportunities.
