Free TAPPI Webinar on Monitoring Microbes

Monitoring Tools and Strategies for the Detection and Control of Microbial Growth in Papermaking Systems

Wednesday, January 30, 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. (EST)

Microorganisms thrive in industrial systems, including paper manufacturing environments. Inadequate control of microbial growth can allow for spoilage and deposit formation that reduces process efficiency and product quality. This webinar will provide an overview of monitoring approaches that can be used to assess the performance of biocontrol programs and optimize treatment strategies for improved control of microbial spoilage and deposit formation.
