Flexible pilot plant for stock preparation for cellulose fibres, an important step in paper production.

The separation of cellulose from forests, agriculture and the sea constitutes a fundamental aspect of biorefinery and sustainable production. The Earth's circular and renewable raw materials are in demand and should be sufficient for a considerable amount, and this demand is increasing.

The high-pressure platform enables conversion of various renewable feedstock into both green fuels and bio-based chemicals. The facility has batch and flow reactors that can handle various types of feed at small and medium scales. RISE also offers extensive expertise in the analysis and characteris…

The RISE carbon capture pilot is a transportable facility that can be used to evaluate continuous carbon capture of flue gases from existing industrial plants.  

(Vertical Atmospheric Flexi Fuel Furnace) is a testbed facility for both gasification and combustion experiments

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) is a thermochemical conversion process for upgrading side streams into HTC carbon with interesting properties. Possible applications include soil improvement, environmental remediation, energy storage, dewatering, and as an energy source.

RISE subsidiary RISE Processum in Örnsköldsvik has equipment and pilots of various sizes to scale up chemical biorefinery processes and syntheses. In an ATEX-classified room there is a reactor system with pilots that are used to develop processes and products in a cost-effective manner. The facilit…

During 2021, a lab-scale electrochemistry test bed has been established in Örnsköldsvik. This technology can use renewable electricity to create valuable chemicals and alternate fuels from industrial waste streams.

With climate change, there is an increased need to capture and take care of carbon dioxide-rich waste streams. Instead of emitting CO₂ into the atmosphere, it can be utilized (CCU) or permanently stored (CCS). The test bed can provide answers to which unit operations are required to produce liquid …

Paper pilot for research constitutes an important paper pilot and is a cost-effective tool for conducting tests and evaluating new applications for pulp and chemicals. Its cost-effectiveness and ability to generate reliable results make it an invaluable tool for driving innovation projects.

Our testbed provides extensive equipment and expertise for the development of efficient and sustainable chemical processes.

The SHC test bed enables conversion of biobased feedstock, even hard-to-process feedstock like pyrolysis oil and lignin, to chemicals and fuels. The pilot plant can be run in both continuous and semi-batch mode. RISE also offers relevant peripheral equipment, as well as expertise and equipment for …

The test bed offers evaluation of techniques for post-treatment methods for PFAS in soil and water as well as evaluation of methods and means for PFAS-free fire extinguishing.

At Paint center, companies can try and evaluate different pre-treatment and painting processes, chemicals and paint for most types of coatings. We have expertise throughout the entire value chain, from chemical and paint suppliers, paint users (in-house and jobcoaters) and appli…

Within the Textile fiber development test bed, RISE develops innovative materials and methods to produce fibers, yarns and nonwoven from bio-based and synthetic raw materials. We offer expertise, manufacturing methods and material analysis related to anything from raw material to final product.

The use of plastics need to be more sustainable, and more plastic need to be recycled back into new products in a resource-efficient way. RISE Testbed for recycling of plastics is an arena and test facility for plastic recycling that offers both expertise and equipment for developing and testing of…
