In our study we are focused on developing of the effective procedure for synthesis of novel chemical materials from lignin which is a component of wooden biomass.
Our project is focused on lignin valorization as lignin is a natural polymer. Lignin as material has high economical potential for industrial development.
SLTS has helped me to turn my dream into reality! After my basic studies I wanted to continue with PhD-studies, and with the help from the Foundation I was able to move to Finland and start my further studies in Åbo Akademi.
