Taking the Guesswork Out of Decarbonizing Pulp and Paper Mills, Paper360º September/October 2024

Over the past decade, the pulp and paper industry has made significant strides to improve the sustainability of its forestry practices and mill operations. Today, around two-thirds of the power and steam consumed in mills is produced via “circular” practices, including the combustion of byproduct materials like black liquor, solids, and other rejects. Waste heat recovery (WHR) systems are also common and reduce the need for unnecessary auxiliary heating via boilers.

Even with the industry’s growing focus on efficiency and the environment, most mills still rely heavily on fossil fuels to meet many of their power and steam requirements (either through onsite generation or external power and steam purchases).
