The 2022 Marcus Wallenberg Prize is awarded to Professor Ilkka Kilpeläinen and Professor Herbert Sixta for the development and use of novel ionic liquids to process wood biomass into high-performance textile fibres.
The future demand for textile fibres is growing due to global population growth. Production of cotton, the predominantly used cellulose fibre for textiles, is not expected to ke
Der Marcus-Wallenberg-Preis 2022 wird an Professor Ilkka Kilpeläinen und Professor Herbert Sixta für die Entwicklung und den Einsatz neuartiger ionischer Flüssigkeiten zur Verarbeitung von Holzbiomasse zu Hochleistungs-Textilfasern verliehen.
Die künftige Nachfrage nach Textilfasern steigt aufgrund des weltweiten Bevölkerungswachstums. Es wird erwartet, dass die Produktion von Baumwolle, der am
Vuoden 2022 Marcus Wallenberg -palkinto myönnetään professori Ilkka Kilpeläiselle ja professori Herbert Sixtalle uudenlaisten ionisten liuottimien kehittämisestä ja soveltamisesta puubiomassan prosessoinnissa korkealaatuisiksi tekstiilikuiduiksi.
Tekstiilikuitujen kysyntä kasvaa tulevaisuudessa maapallon väestönkasvun vuoksi. Tekstiileissä tällä hetkellä pääasiallisesti käytettävä selluloo
Marcus Wallenbergpriset 2022 tilldelas professor Ilkka Kilpeläinen och professor Herbert Sixta för utveckling och användning av nya joniska vätskor för konvertering av pappersmassa till högpresterande textilfibrer.
Den framtida efterfrågan på textilfibrer ökar på grund av den globala befolkningsökningen. Produktionen av bomull, den cellulosafiber som främst används för textilier, förväntas inte
A digital prize ceremony for the Marcus Wallenberg Prize was accomplished yesterday. The three professors Joseph J Landsberg, Australia, Richard H Waring, USA, and Nicholas C Coops, Canada were awarded for a model, 3PG, with addition of advanced satellite imagery analysis. The result is a powerful tool for predicting forest growth and assessing the risks to the world's forests posed by climate ch
Igår genomfördes en digital prisutdelning av Marcus Wallenbergpriset. De tre professorerna Joseph J. Landsberg, Australien, Richard H. Waring, USA och Nicholas C. Coops, Kanada belönades med priset för en modell, 3PG, som kompletterats med avancerad satellitbildsanalys. Resultatet är ett kraftfullt verktyg för att förutsäga skogstillväxt och bedöma vilka risker som klimatförändringarna innebär för
The Board of the Marcus Wallenberg Foundation and its Selection Committee invite individuals and institutions, globally, to nominate candidates for the Marcus Wallenberg Prize.
Joseph J Landsberg, Richard H Waring and Nicholas C Coops, share the 2020 Marcus Wallenberg Prize for a model to predict forest growth in a changing climate. Satellite imagery offers the possibility to scale up the model to show how different environmental conditions affect the world's forests.
The 2020 Marcus Wallenberg Prize will be announced on 28 April at 22:00 CEST.
Professor Torgny Näsholm received the Marcus Wallenberg Prize 2018 for the discovery that pine, spruce, and other plants can take up different kinds of organic nitrogen from the soil. He has also developed sustainable fertilizers. Torgny Näsholm says that the success is a result of a great teamwork but we would not have succeeded without all the mistakes along the road.
The purpose of the Prize is to recognize, encourage and stimulate pathbreaking scientific achievements which contribute significantly to broadening knowledge and to technical development within the fields of importance to forestry and forest industries.
