Chemical structure and selected applications of lignins - Training school

This training school mainly targets on the chemical structure and selected applications of lignin. It has a special focus on the industrial significant processes by including interactions with industries. Example lectures are:

- Lignin first process, Prof. Mikhail Balakshin, Aalto University, Finland
- Chemical structures of lignin by NMR, Dr Ewellyn Capanema, RISE, Sweden
- SEC/MALLS with some 2D-SEC and functional dispersity distribution and speed analysis methods, Prof. Antje Potthast, BOKU, Austria
- New methods in understanding aging/chromophore chemistry, Prof. Thomas Rosenau, BOKU, Austria
- Lignin nanoparticles, Prof. Monika Österberg, Aalto University, Finland
- Lignin carbonization, Prof. Michael Hummel, Aalto University, Finland

For doctoral students, ÅAU will give 2-5 credits depending on the assignments that will be included.
