Lignosulfonates as Binders for Briquetting and Pelletizing
High-Performance Binders for the Fuel Industry
Briquette and pellet production places high demands on the binder used – reliable binding strength at low dosage, low ash content on combustion, and resistance to moisture are all essential. Otto Dille supplies fuel industry manufacturers with lignosulfonates as binding and dispersing agents – sourced through our established global import and export network.
Thanks to their excellent binding properties, lignosulfonates are used across a wide range of industries for briquetting and pelletizing. Applications range from coal dust, iron oxide, and zinc oxide to livestock feed.
Our Products for the Fuel Industry
- Lignosulfonates as Briquetting and Pelletizing Binders: Even relatively low dosages deliver excellent results. Particularly advantageous are the low ash content on combustion and the water-insolubility achieved after heating to approximately 250 °C – an important benefit for the storage and transport stability of the finished briquettes and pellets.
- Lignosulfonates as Dispersing Agents in Carbon Black Production: In the production of carbon black, lignosulfonates perform well not only as a pelletizing aid but also as a dispersing agent with high temperature resistance.
- Lignosulfonate T11 N5 (#6599025): Our specialty product, Lignosulfonate T11 N5, is particularly well suited for briquette production – technical specifications and the safety data sheet are available on request.

Sustainability of Lignosulfonates in the Fuel Industry
Lignosulfonates are a sustainable binder for the fuel industry: they are generated as a natural by-product of pulp production from wood – a renewable resource – offering a bio-based alternative to synthetic, petroleum-based binders in briquetting and pelletizing. Rather than going unused during paper production, the lignin contained in the wood is put to meaningful further use – a contribution to the circular economy, in which a residue from the pulp industry becomes a valuable raw material for new applications.
Lignosulfonates also score environmentally in use itself: their low ash content on combustion enables clean energy generation from briquettes and pellets, while even small dosages provide reliable binding strength – reducing chemical usage compared to less efficient binders. As a biodegradable product, lignosulfonates also place no burden on soil or groundwater.
With lignosulfonates from Otto Dille, fuel industry manufacturers gain a sustainable, bio-based binder that conserves fossil resources, puts residues from the paper and pulp industry to meaningful further use, and delivers outstanding technical performance in briquetting and pelletizing.
