Domsjö's first lignin dryer was commissioned in January 2009, and the product has had a very favourable development in the global market. Now a second dryer is being constructed, and the drying capacity will be doubled, from 60,000 to 120,000 tons per annum.The doubled drying capacity will enhance Domsjö's capability to develop and produce lignin products with higher quality and higher value. During the spring this year, a new product will be launched. It will be the first product which is based on new technology, which Domsjö has developed and submitted a patent application for. The new product will give Domsjö access to new market segments, the company writes in a press release.The main energy source for the new lignin dryer will, just like for the first dryer, be biogas from the in-house bio-treatment plant.
