The value of U.S. tall oil exports to Finland and Sweden increased significantly last year, according to a report filed with the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service’s Global Agricultural Information Network. The increase is primarily attributed to increased demand for tall oil as an advanced biofuel feedstock. Both countries are expected to further expand their advanced biofuel production capacity over the next five years, and import demand for tall oil is forecast to grow accordingly. Tall oil is produced from back liquor generated by the pulping of wood.
