How to join and benefit from the provides project?
19 November 2015, European Paper Week 2015
Annita Westenbroek
Technical coordinator ISPT DES cluster and Provides project
Ambition Provides
Approaching 80% CO2 emission reduction by the application of Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs)
• Common development of the technology
• Europe-wide application
Provides
PROcesses for Value added fibres by Innovative Deep Eutectic Solvents
Objectives
Develop radically new, sustainable and techno-economically feasible pulping technologies for industrial wood and agro-based lignocellulose raw materials based on natural DESs
• Pulping with lignin dissolving DES
• Pulping with cellulose dissolving DES
• Removing contaminants with DES
• Pure cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose
• Low cost
• From different sources (wood, straw) Tailor made fibres depending on DES mixtures
Dissolving lignin
• Recovery of pure cellulose from papermaking residues
• Low cost Clean dissolved pulp or building block for bio chemicals, materials or fuels
Dissolving cellulose
Dissolving ink and other contaminants
Scope
Objectives
• Select suitable DESs
- Develop the theoretical framework for fast screening of DESs
- Develop understanding of extraction kinetics
• Develop recovery protocols
• Integrated process design and evaluation
• Develop and explore exploitation parameters
Publication, dissemination and communication
Dissemination of project results • 20 October – Nordic Wood Biorefinery Conference, Helsinki (NWBC) – presentation of

Participants
New partners
Any new industrial partner from the European pulp and paper industry is welcome to join the project under the same conditions as the other partners
• after official agreement in the General Assembly
• conditions: 40 kEuro in-cash + 40 kEuro in-kind
Cooperation
Activities • Scientific work: TU Eindhoven, CTP, VTT, University of Twente and
University of Aveiro • Work packages: co-chaired by industry to ensure industrial steering
towards applicability of the results • All industrial partners take their share of the industry- and application
oriented work and contribute equally • Pöyry assists with the DES business case IP • All results are shared and potentially owned by all partners • Within the scope of the project: No partner can have non-accessible
IP that blocks other partners from applying the results
