    PROJECT CAPABILITIES BOILER CONVERSION TO BIOMASS BURNING Scope of Service Boiler owner/operators in recent years have been motivated to convert existing fossil fuel-fired boilers to burn some, or exclusively biomass fuels. Biomass fuels often provide lower fuel costs and lower flue gas emissions as well as being considered a “green” renewable resource. Whether the boiler currently burns exclusively fossil fuels or burns a combination of fossil and biomass fuels, JANSEN has the experience and capabilities to provide the necessary services to enhance biomass firing in most all boiler configurations. A recommended phased approach to fuel conversion projects is listed below: Initial assessment of feasibility and required modifications to generate early budgetary costs. Engineering evaluation of existing boiler to determine the unit’s capabilities when operating with the new fuel (pressure parts, auxiliary and air pollution control equipment). Definition engineering to develop +/- 10% accuracy cost estimate. Engineering design, fabrication, and materials supply. Installation. Operator training and start-up assistance. JANSEN has the capability and experience to carry out any or all of these steps.

  • Catalyst Paper Generates Outstanding Savings and Improves Product Quality with Honeywell’S Advanced Control Solution
    Catalyst Paper Generates Outstanding Savings and Improves Product Quality with Honeywell’s Advanced Control Solution “Investing in a state-of-the-art advanced control solution from Honeywell has permitted Catalyst Paper to gain increased control over our operating systems while saving millions of dollars each year in raw materials and energy. And we have been able to accomplish all this without sacrificing the high quality of the various products we produce.” Dwight Anderson, Senior Process Control System Specialist, Catalyst Paper Benefits Catalyst Paper sought to find ways for its thermo-mechanical pulp (TMP) process to reduce dependence on kraft consumption and improve process efficiency at its Canadian Elk Falls facility. In order to maintain the company’s high quality expectations, Catalyst wanted to find new, leading-edge ways to reduce kraft consumption, because of its expense, without sacrificing any of the mill’s end-product standards. To achieve cost savings without sacrificing product quality, The Elk Falls Division is located on the Pacific coast of British Columbia, Catalyst Paper called upon Honeywell to partner with them in Canada, near the city of Campbell River on Vancouver Island developing an advanced control solution to improve their pulp quality. Background Some of the benefits realized by Catalyst Paper after the Catalyst Paper Corp., as it has been known since 2005, was implementation of Profit Controller include: formed from the amalgamation of several predecessor companies and acquisitions—including British Columbia Forest • Improved pulp quality by decreasing pulp freeness variability Products, Fletcher Challenge Canada, Norske Skog and by 41% and pulp mean fiber length variability by 21%, Newstech Recycling—each with its own rich history.

This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. 30th June 2013 Jason Barnett Date ii | P a g e Abstract In January 2008 Norske Skog, Boyer (NSB) , Tasmania, commissioned an activated sludge (AS) wastewater treatment plant to lower the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and suspended solids (SS) in the treated effluent discharged from the mill. In October 2009 the company also changed the feed stock of the mill from a mixed Pinus radiata and Eucalypt to solely P. radiata, altering the pulping process. The cold caustic soda (CCS) plant was decommissioned and replaced with an additional thermo-mechanical pulping (TMP) plant. Trace metals in the mill wastewater samples were analysed before and after this transition to detect any differences due to the changed feedstock and operating conditions, and to determine if metal levels were sufficient for optimum operation of the AS wastewater treatment plant.

  • From Waste to Value
    4 New path development for forest- based value creation in Norway Antje Klitkou, Marco Capasso, Teis Hansen and Julia Szulecka 4.1 Introduction This chapter focuses on path development in the forest-based industries of Norway, based on the valorisation of side- streams and residues. Forest- based value creation is one of the main avenues for the emerging bioeconomy in Norway and the neighbouring Nordic countries Sweden and Finland. Historically, the forestry sector has been an important part of the Norwegian economy, both in terms of GDP and employment. The sector contributed 10.4% of Norwegian GDP in 1845 (Grytten, 2004, p. 254). After the discovery of oil and natural gas on the Norwegian shelf, the importance of the forestry sector has diminished. And over the last decade this negative trend has multiplied. For decades, the forestry- based industry in Norway has specialised in pulp and paper production, especially newsprint paper. Therefore, huge volumes of forest resources, including residues and side- streams, have been poured into this industry. However, due to changing global market conditions – the massive deployment of the Internet reducing demand for newspapers – and the rise of competitors in other parts of the world, European pulp and paper production has declined significantly in the last decade (Karltorp & Sandén, 2012). This development has had a tremendous impact on the market possib- ilities of forestry residues, since they can now be processed for pulp and paper to a much lesser degree. Nevertheless, other valorisation pathways exist besides pulp and paper production, such as the wooden construction industry, wooden furniture manufacturing, bioenergy – including solid bioenergy and liquid biofuels – and the production of lignocellulosic chemicals and mater- ials.

  • September 2015 City of Powell River – PRSC Limited Partnership
    City of Powell River City Hall – MacGregor Building 6910 Duncan Street, Powell River BC V8A 1V4 Telephone 604 485-6291 ~ Fax 604 485-2913 www.powellriver.ca FILE: 1405-01 September 2015 City of Powell River – PRSC Limited Partnership INFORMATION Background In 2003 the City of Powell River (in conjunction with the Powell River Regional Economic Development Society) and Sliammon Development Corp (SDC) separately approached Norske Skog Canada (now Catalyst Paper) to purchase waterfront industrial lands near the mill. After some discussion, SDC proposed that NorskeCanada and the City come together with it to form a joint venture to pursue development of the lands surplus to mill operations. The conversation between the three parties led to the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding to pursue the formation of a partnership in 2004. After two years of hard work the three parties announced in August 2006 that they had formed PRSC Limited Partnership to take ownership of approximately 800 acres of land no longer strategic to Catalyst Paper Corporation’s operations in Powell River. In return for the lands, PRSC Limited Partnership (LP) secured a mortgage of $4.5 million due on August 1, 2011 at an interest rate of 5% annually (A 4 year extension was secured early in 2011). Each party held shares in the Limited Partnership through wholly owned corporations: • Powell River Waterfront Development Corporation (PRWDC) - owned 100% by the City of Powell River • Tees’kwat Land Holdings Ltd (TLH) - owned 100% by Sliammon Development Corporation • 0606890 BC Ltd - owned 100% by Catalyst Paper Corporation While under Creditor Protection in 2012, Catalyst Paper made an agreement with the PRWDC and TLH to sell its shares in the Limited Partnership and retire the mortgage for the sum of $3.0 million dollars.
