Can additives made from a pulp-industry residue stand in for fossil-based antioxidants in rubber?
Our partner CTR has put together a great summary of the rubber validation work in ZEBRA-LIFE. Read their summary to see how the validation went.

In the past weeks we’ve focused on circularity: keeping side streams in use and closing the loop. Today we move to the next question: how do we turn lignin from black liquor into bio-based antioxidants?
The answer is OHRIGINS, a technology developed by @CENER_Energia.

On the ZEBRA-LIFE Multimedia section, the partners explain the project in their own words: a tour of the new CENER pilot plant, and the ZEBRA-Talks interview series on the target markets, rubber, food, fuels and lubricants, and cosmetics. Have a look: zebra.bio2c.es/

A couple of weeks ago, @WOOD4PLASTIC and @ZebraLifeEU held a webinar on circular economy becoming an industrial reality and the challenge of building real circular value chains across industries. You can watch it here:

📻 🎧 #Valorizar un #residuo 🌱 y conseguir un #antioxidantenatural que tiene aplicaciones en el sector #cosmético, de la #alimentación o los #biocombustibles, es uno de los puntos fuertes que se han conseguido lograr gracias a la tecnología #OHRIGINS desarrollada por #CENER , en el proyecto @ZebraLifeEU tal y como explica 🎙️ Vicente Lopez Fernandez, director de Innovación del Dpto. de Biomasa en esta entrevista realizada para @SERnavarra en el programa "Con los pies en la tierra" // #HoyporHoyNavarra
✳️ @ZebraLifeEU es un buen ejemplo de lo que ayuda la existencia de programas de financiación como #LIFE de la #ComisiónEuropea para desarrollar proyectos innovadores en el ámbito de la #sostenibilidad.

Meet the @ZebraLifeEU team and see the pilot plant in action: antioxidants that outperform BHT, fully bio-based, 840 hours of continuous operation.
On to thousands more.

Circularity isn’t just sustainability — it’s a competitive edge.
Through the @ZebraLifeEU project, we’re building on what already exists, turning by-products into the starting point of entirely new value chains.

We recovered this info about lignin and the paper industry, a good resource to recall what our mission is and set the stage for the coming months.
Check it out! 👀

Industries using petroleum-based additives need alternatives that fit their existing supply chains. @ZebraLifeEU plugs into infrastructure already running: a mill recovering lignin end markets consuming these additives today.
More info below.

Thirty months of design, construction and testing, and then 840 hours running continuously. The @ZebraLifeEU pilot plant in northern Spain is now officially commissioned, which means we're officially allowed to make a big deal about this. So we are: 🎉 🎉 🎉

We’re pulling back the curtain on some of our processes. Starting with @CENER_Energia, who are at the heart of it all: they take kraft lignin, develop our product, send it to partners, collect their feedback and refine the formula. But what exactly do they examine to do this? 👇🏼
ZEBRA-LIFE retweeted
Unless you’re a chemistry natural or have a flawless memory from your high school days, chances are you’ll find this piece on #antioxidants very interesting. After all, antioxidants are in almost everything you eat or wear, so why not get to know them better? #ZEBRALIFE
