Asphalt for roads is manufactured by binding together aggregate with bitumen, a petroleum product. Lignin binds together the <strong>cellulose<\/strong> \ufb01bers in plants, and so, it is believed it can serve the same purpose in the production of asphalt<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">FPInnovations\u2019 Environment and Sustainability group analysed the potential <strong>environmental<\/strong> benefits of using lignin in asphalt. In a preliminary study performed for the province of Alberta, assuming it is feasible to substitute 5% to 10% of the bitumen in a typical asphalt mixture with lignin, results showed that emissions of up to 16,000 to 31,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year could be avoided. On a national scale, this translates into a reduction of <strong>GHG emissions<\/strong> in the order of 117,000 to 260,000 tonnes of CO2 eq. per year. This is equivalent to removing up to 56,171 cars from the road each year<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">To read the full blog from\u00a0<em>FPInnovations<\/em>, click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/web.fpinnovations.ca\/lignin-from-canadian-forests-the-secret-ingredient-for-greener-roads\/\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">20.04.2021<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Ref: <a href=\"https:\/\/web.fpinnovations.ca\/lignin-from-canadian-forests-the-secret-ingredient-for-greener-roads\/\">web.fpinnovations.ca<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>News- In recent years, environmental considerations related to the use of petroleum-based products have led many around the world to evaluate greener options for reducing the carbon footprint of asphalted roads.
