Unlike a traditional review, this article does not summarise and discuss scientific progress in terms of traditional focus topics such as upstream processes or conversion and downstream processes, but instead provides examples proving that Yes, we can make money from lignin and other bio-based resources. The nine success stories from Scion's research are differentiated by the size of the product from designing trees with customised lignin and modifying wood dried by supercritical processing to bioaromatics from lignin hydrogenolysis, the scale of the product - from wood fibre plasticcomposites at commercial scale and lignin-rich bioadhesives to bio-based materials for 3D printing and the value of the product(s) - from lignin-based nanofibres and supercritical extraction of chemicals and compounds to utilising biomass side streams.
