RenFuel Lignin Bio Oil
Lignol has a similar structure as fossil oil,
means gasoline, diesel, jetfuel…
Needs Hydro Treatment in refinery
90% CO2 reduction
• Existing refineries
• Both gasoline, diesel and jet
• Mix to any degree fossil fuel
to meet regulation over time
• Existing distribution system
• No investments in stations
• No adjustments on vehicles

Preem invest in refining lignol into gasoline & diesel to
make the Swedish vehicle fleet fossil free...
Preem becomes the world’s first refinery to use LIGNOL®
for production of bio-gasoline and bio-diesel in Preemraff.

RenFuel Lignin Bio Oil
Together with Rottneros a basic engineering project phase have been
concluded 2019
The results from technical scale up and regulation is very good
The results from ROI (4-5 years) from pulp mill project investment
is not acceptable (lignin extraction, harbor, infrastructure)
Lesson learned…
Scale of economy focus on pulpmill with capacity of +300 kton pulp
and commitment to increase pulp product!
First establishment of bio-refinery…!
