February 10, 2012 |

In Canada, Lignol announced that they have been awarded up to $2.06 million in additional SDTC funding, for a total of $6.78 million awarded to date. The duration of the current work plan, that started September, 2009 with the support from SDTC, will be extended until Q3 2013 with an overall total project cost estimated to be $20.4 million.

The original project resulted in the establishment of an integrated industrial scale facility for the production of cellulosic ethanol and renewable biochemicals. The additional project scope will result in further enhancement to Lignol’s biorefinery technologies, focusing on  hemicellulose-derived sugars.
