Residential Mixed Paper - How Much OCC Will it Replace?, 1998 Recycling Symposium Proceedings

With a high level of recovery for the more conventional commodity grades of recovered paper (OCC and old newspapers), residential mixed paper (RMP) is emerging as a potential substitute/extender source of secondary fiber. This paper will cover the following topics with regard to RMP:

- Generation issues - recovery and diversion rates

- Composition/Specifications issues - how the grade is produced from the household and the different fibers present

- Usability at different types of mills

- examine the current usage at tissue, newsprint, recycled paperboard, and containerboard mills

- Trends in the generation and usage of RMP
