Lignin is the most abundant natural raw material available on Earth in terms of solar energy storage. It represents 30 per cent of all the non-fossil organic carbon on Earth. Lignin can be used as a green alternative to many petroleum-derived substances, such as fuels, resins, rubber additives, thermoplastic blends, nutra and pharmaceuticals. It is also known to be the only renewable source for industrial aromatics production. Lignin can be found in other plants, such as cereal straws, bamboo and bagasse, but it is in wood that lignin content is the highest in terms of weight: 20–35 percent in wood compared to 3–25 per cent in other lignin sources.
Typically, kraft and organosolv lignins are two suitable candidates, whereas lignosulfonates will most likely lead to lower-value chemicals, which require more complicated processing.

In this report, we mainly analyze the lignosulphonates and Kraft lignin, including sodium lignosulfonate products, calcium lignosulfonate products, magnesium lignosulfonate products and Kraft lignin etc.

Lignosulfonates or sulfonated lignin, are water-soluble anionic polyelectrolyte polymers: they are byproducts from the production of wood pulp using sulfite pulping. Lignosulfonates can be used in a variety of commercial, manufacturing, mining, drilling and engineering applications. Lignin polymers act as excellent and cost effective binders (binding agents) in the dispersion of carbon black, pesticides and dyes as well as pellets (agglomeration) such as pelletized limestone, animal feed pellets, organic waste agglomeration, coal briquettes/ pellets, briquetting of mineral dust (fines, shavings, turnings), biomass pellets.

Kraft lignin is an inexpensive and abundant byproduct of pulp mills that can be used in the synthesis of adhesives and Lignin Productss along with energy production. Kraft lignins have different chemical properties than lignosulfonates. There are no sulfonate groups present, so kraft lignin is only soluble in alkaline solution (pH above 10). Kraft lignin can thus be precipitated from black liquor by lowering the pH to 10 with a suitable acid.

Lignin and Lignin-Based Products can be broadly classified into three types: Kraft Lignin, Lignosulphonates and other, and the proportion of Lignosulphonates in 2017 is about 88.7%.

The Lignin and Lignin-Based Products market was valued at 750 Million US$ in 2017 and is projected to reach 1380 Million US$ by 2025, at a CAGR of 8.0% during the forecast period. In this study, 2017 has been considered as the base year and 2018 to 2025 as the forecast period to estimate the market size for Lignin and Lignin-Based Products.
