A method for producing an electrode active coating on a current collector comprising providing isolated lignin and subjecting the isolated lignin to a pre-treatment in order to remove low molecular mass fractions of the lignin. The pre-treated lignin is mixed with an electrode active material, water and a conductive additive material so as obtain a slurry adapted for coating of a current collector. The coating obtained by the method comprises pre-treated lignin as a binder. The coating obtained has good binding properties between the particles of the coating as well as to the current collector. Furthermore, it has excellent electrochemical properties during use in a lithium-ion battery.

Electrode active coating for a lithium-ion battery and method of production therefore

This invention relates to the use of a tunicate or an extract obtained from a tunicate for the production of one or more biofuel selected from an alcohol and biodiesel. The invention also relates to a method for producing a biofuel from a tunicate wherein the biofuel is selected from an alcohol and biodiesel and wherein said method comprises the steps of: (a)(i) subjecting said tunicate or one or more polysaccharides extracted from said tunicate to enzymatic or acid hydrolysis to form a hydrolysate containing one or more monosaccharides and (ii) fermenting said one or more monosaccharides to form an alcohol; or (b)(i) extracting lipids/fatty acids from said tunicate and (ii) converting said lipids/fatty acids into biodiesel by transesterification or alcoholysis or (iii) subjecting said tunicate to transesterification or alcoholysis thereby converting lipids/fatty acids present in said tunicate into biodiesel.

Animal feeds and feed components are provided which comprise tunicate material. The tunicate material may be whole tunicate, e.g. washed and/or dried, or a tunicate extract. Preferred tunicate extracts include protein- and/or lipid-enhanced extracts. Also provided are uses of tunicates and tunicate extracts as, or in, animal feeds and methods for feeding animals, e.g. fish, comprising administering feeds containing tunicate material.
