Offering eight program tracks focused on operations and maintenance throughout the pulp mill, the  Pulping, Engineering, Environmental, Recycling and Sustainability (PEERS) Conference, will take place October 28-31, 2018 in Portland, Ore., USA.

 

In the Alkali Pulping and Bleaching track, you and your team will discover new developments in:

• oxidative pulping
• brown stock monitoring and efficiency enhancements
• bleach plant optimization
• bleaching chemical utilization and production
• oxygen delignification performance
• and the impact and control of non-process elements.

Sessions will be focused on:

• Catalytic Oxidation of Wood Using Cobalt Schiff Base Compounds
• Technological Evaluation of Pinus Maximinoi Wood for Industrial Use in Kraft Pulp Production
• How to Use TDS Measurements for Evaluating the Performance of Diffuser Washers – Mill Study
• Novel Chemistries Enable Pulp Mills to Recover Lost Washing Efficiency
• pH in the Bleach Plant: Why It’s Important and What to Do About It
• Are There Advantages to Using 50% versus 10% Strength Peroxide in Pulp Bleach Plants?
• Economic Fundamentals of Ozone Bleaching
• More Efficient Oxygen Delignification
• Managing Evaporator Fouling for Operational Efficiency
• And many more. 

Two panel discussions include:

• Chip Supply Issues: Quality and Quantity in the Pacific Northwest
• Value and Use of TAPPI’s Technical Information Papers (TIPs)

After completing this track, attendees will be able to:

• Identify opportunities to optimize the alkali pulp and bleaching process
• Address issues and develop solutions to operational issues
• Optimize process parameters to minimize production costs and maximize profitability.
