Hurd Solutions develops plant based materials to replace single-use petroleum based plastics. Hemp straw, a residue of hemp processing, is of particular interest to Hurd Solutions as it represents an underutilized value added product that would further reduce the environmental footprint of the hemp industry. This work will perform a comprehensive literature review of the work in phenolic resins from plant-based materials and suggest future directions/work. The py-oil is produced by ABRI-Tech Inc for Hurd Solutions (using hemp straw provided by Hurd Solutions) in a one tonne/d pyrolysis system.
