Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019054913A1] A method for production of fuel pellets or briquettes from tree material, which method comprises de-barking the tree material to separate bark and wood material, processing the wood material in a chemical pulping process, separating lignin from spent cooking liquor from the chemical pulping process and pelletizing the bark to form pellets or briquettes, wherein the pelletizing comprises adding at least some of the separated lignin as a binder.
