As recently as last month, ALLM posted potential promising opportunities for the "lignin waste" as they call it in the very first paragraph...

So many options for that lignin to choose from! The problem is...it doesn't appear to be that simple...

This is from December 2015, check out the first paragraph. That's all you need to know (however, I encourage you to read the entire article). If it's not a product, it's a waste. Even ALLM said so in their article. If you can't sell it, then you must pay to transport & dispose of it, adding to the cost. 20% - 30% of the biomass is a huge number! If ALLM processes 250 ton of biomass / day (as they state via press release), how much waste is that?
It's not that there isn't a market for lignin, it's just not a strong one. Most prefer to dispose as waste or energy recovery (burn it). Heck, these guys in link below are even in the lignin business and they admit there are difficulties to find stronger additional commercial use for it...

Those uses that are listed are merely used as an additive, not a main ingredient.
Why don't they know of ALLM's groundbreaking technology?
