We would like to invite you to join us for exclusive tour as we go to visit Borregaard’s production facility in Sarpsborg, Norway
The bioethanol that is produced in Borregaard’s biorefinery is based on extracting sugar from wood (spruce), which is then fermented to make ethanol. Ethanol is one of several products coming out of the total process. The pulp for specialty cellulose is produced by cooking spruce chips with acidic calcium bisulfite cooking liquor. After concentration of the sulfite spent liquor, the sugars are fermented and ethanol is distilled and dehydrated to get absolute ethanol. The lignin (binding agent in wood) is modified to a broad range of product applications. Lignin is also raw material for the production of vanillin, the vanilla flavour. Borregaard is the only producer of wood based vanillin.
There is no extra charge to join the site visit, although places are limited and allocated to the conference delegates on first come first served basis. Therefore, we would strongly suggest to book your place early to avoid disappointment

Steeper Energy Aps is an advanced-biofuel technology development company, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, commercializing its proprietary high-temperature high-pressure hydrothermal liquefaction (“HTL”) technology platform known as Hydrofaction®. This highly energy-efficient technology converts residual or waste biomass to drop-in biofuels such as renewable diesel and jet fuel as well as bio-chemicals. Other products include: renewable H2; liquid CO2; and, synthetic water. The company’s commercialization plan for Hydrofaction™ is progressing with the recent announcement of a project with Silva Green Fuels (a biofuel JV between Statkraft A/S and Södra AB). With proven technology and strong commercialization partners, Steeper is targeting the urgent need for renewable high-energy density transport fuels in EU, North America and eventually the world. With proven high oil yields (45% mass and 80% energy basis) utilizing existing available forestry and agricultural residues over 5 million barrels per day of Hydrofaction™ Oil could be produced in the EU and North America alone and perhaps up to 14 million barrels around the world accounting for over one third of today’s heavy transport fuel consumption.
