At Stockholm University, scientists have come up with a resource-efficient technique to generate new lignin-based materials that can be reprocessed thermally and further utilized to replace adhesives and thermosetting resins.
Green chemistry
Sustainable chemistry, also known as green chemistry, is a broad field that addresses and solves important environmental problems related to climate change. The goal of experts in this field is to support the change of industrial production toward a no-waste generation and almost zero pollution.
Sustainability has long been high on Stockholm Universitys agenda, and the university is now taking a broader approach to tie existing sustainability research and education to the area of green chemistry.
A new center for circular and sustainable systems (SUCCeSS) was founded at the end of 2020. It builds on the universitys existing efforts in this area, with a goal to develop both research and education, and become a leading center internationally. Moreover, a new graduate program in sustainable chemistry will be launched this fall with an introductory course in green chemistry. The universitys undergraduate program in chemistry will also weave various aspects of
