NWBC 2018:Proceedings of the 8th Nordic Wood Biorefinery Conference

The 8th edition of the Conference, and this book of proceedings, continue the tradition of NWBC on building the foundation of a sustainable bio-economy. This requires that the many aspects of the foundation are systematically considered, including for example societal issues, design and consumer needs, technological performance and economics of production. Furthermore, findings both from industrial experiences from all linked sectors in implementation and R&D and academic research needs to be communicated to close the loop. The organizers hope that the selected scientific contributions, industrial viewpoints and the conference format are able to contribute to building yet another layer on this foundation.
