About NORCELlab
NORCELlab is a national infrastructure dedicated to cellulose research and development, hosted by RISE PFI and funded by the Research Council of Norway. NORCELlab is available both to national and international stakeholders (universities, institutes and industries), providing its services to companies on commercial contract basis as well as to the benefit of research and development projects and education.
Contribution to research and innovation
NORCELlab will represent the whole value chain from production of cellulosic building blocks to development of prototypes from them. The toolbox in NORCELlab includes advanced instrumentation and analysis equipment in addition to laboratory equipment suitable for simulating industrial production methods. Hence, NORCELlab will secure research on fundamental level and development of products closer to industrialization.
The laboratory is localized at the Gløshaugen campus, making collaboration with other highly relevant infrastructures such as NORFABnode Nanolab and NorBioLab easy.
NORCELlab addresses the thematic priority areas “Nanotechnology and advanced materials”, “Bioeconomy”, “Food”, “Health” and “Petroleum” through the applications of the cellulosic building blocks.
NORCELlab is owned by RISE PFI
The laboratory will comprise three categories of infrastructure, all located in the same building (Høgskoleringen 6b, Trondheim): i) production and processing of micro- and nanocelluloses, ii) production of micro- / nanocellulose-based materials and structures and iii) characterization of micro- /
nanocelluloses and structures made thereof.
RISE PFI is part of RISE - Research Institutes of Sweden
