As a result we will share ½ of a senior develop- ment officer with the College of Engineering, and have access to the University’s giving software. The availability of new software is timely as we are seeing deterioration of our current 30 year old software called GIFT. We welcomed Mike Higgins aboard as our new development officer. Mike has been busy REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN AND PRESIDENT visiting mills and becoming familiar with our industry. We look forward to increased scholarship and student support with Mike’s arrival. The past year was vibrant and productive with many changes in Foundation activity driven Again our scholarships spend was stable at $742,000. The quality of our students continues by Foundation volunteers. We began the year with industry representatives choosing 21 to be very high, with many electing to accept employment in the paper industry. In 2012, scholarship students who entered our University in the fall. Applications to our programs we awarded a total of 83 scholarships. continue to come in at record levels. This year’s Consider Engineering program was one of the most successful in recent years with outstanding feedback from students and parents After spending significant time developing updated goals and new strategies over the past alike. 102 students were selected from a record number of 182 applicants to attend the year, we will need to now focus on implementation. As Barbara moves off the Executive 2012 Consider Engineering program. Committee and becomes Chair Ex-Offiio, and as John moves on to become Chairman, we would like to thank the more than 80 volunteers of the UMaine Pulp & Paper Foundation Some key events in 2012 were: who do much of the work, and ultimately make the support of our students possible. We are very pleased that John Donahue of Sappi will take over as the next leader and President of There were four meetings held by the Strategic Planning Committee which was appointed our organization, and we wish him the very best and support in his new role. by the Executive Committee. The result at year end was a new Strategic Plan that will modernize, simplify and streamline the Foundation, and take us successfully into the fu- ture. Some of the changes involve a clear focus on engineering and a shift away from Chairman, Barbara Kerr Hamilton President, John Wolanski forestry since many of the mills have divested forestlands. We have clarified our mission and goals, and aligned strategies and committees with each goal. Please see our website for a summary of the updated strategy, as well as a lined out version of the updated bylaws – your feedback is welcome. Our Scholarship Committee revised the Foundation’s Scholarship to one that will still at- tract top talent, but will reduce our overall spend by $50,000 per year over the next three years. This committee did outstanding work through student interviews and using a deci- sion matrix to help decide on the best alternative. The new process will also simplify Pulp & Paper Foundation office paperwork. The updated scholarship can be found on our web site at www.mainepulpaper.org. Our Investment Management Committee evaluated 4 separate investment advisors and ultimately elected to move our liquid funds to Vanguard. This will result in annual savings in fees of more than $70,000 per year. We will continue to hold approximately $1,000,000 of funds in alternate investments at Commonfund. Paper Days 2012 was an outstanding event with a keynote address by former scholarship recipient Mark Cross, Senior Vice President for MeadWestvaco. Mark’s graduation style presentation, reminding us to make each day our masterpiece, in addition to great presen- tations and camaraderie, made for a great event with a record crowd of more than 330 in The University of Maine Pulp & Paper Foundation Board of Directors pose for a group photo at attendance.

Zaro's talk is the third installment in the Climate Change Institute's monthly lecture series, which is free and open to the public. According to Zaro, humans are active components of the environment and have been manipulating the physical world for thousands of years. While modern industrial nations are often viewed to have the greatest impact on ecological change, ancient civilizations have also left long-lasting imprints on the landscape that continue to shape our contemporary world.

Preface This book is a compilation of lectures given at the TAPPI Pacific Section Meeting in Seattle, Wash., in September 1968. They dealt with experiences in continuous pulping obtained over more than one decade at Billeruds AB in collaboration with AB Kamyr. One reason for my choice of topic was that Kamyr digesters have dom­ inated the most vital operation in our industry for more than ten years and still do, although some signs of healthy competition have appeared.

  • “From Chips to Pulp in Minutes”: Innovations and Continuous Pulp Cooking in the Soviet Union in the 1940S- 1950S
    Elena Kochetkova “FROM CHIPS TO PULP IN MINUTES”: INNOVATIONS AND CONTINUOUS PULP COOKING IN THE SOVIET UNION IN THE 1940S- 1950S BASIC RESEARCH PROGRAM WORKING PAPERS SERIES: HUMANITIES WP BRP 76/HUM/2014 This Working Paper is an output of a research project implemented within NRU HSE’s Annual Thematic Plan for Basic and Applied Research. Any opinions or claims contained in this Working Paper do not necessarily reflect the views of HSE Elena Kochetkova1 “FROM CHIPS TO PULP IN MINUTES”: INNOVATIONS AND CONTINUOUS PULP COOKING IN THE SOVIET UNION IN THE 1940S-1950S2 The 1940s – mid-1960s saw rapid developments in the chemical and cellulose industries internationally. In this period, a number of attempts to introduce new technologies were taken by industrial scientists and engineers, some of which happened in different countries simultaneously. In the late 1930s, Swedish engineer Johan Richter proposed the Kamyr digester project to industrialists, and after roughly ten years it succeeded in implementing the technology at an industrial scale. Several years earlier, Soviet engineer Leonid Zherebov proposed a project different from the Swedish one in some technical parameters, but with the same purpose – increasing the production of pulp. This initiative, however, was not introduced as planned. Instead, after more than 20 years, Soviet industry mostly produced pulp using Kamyr digesters purchased from abroad. Following the question raised by historian Loren Graham as to why Russian innovations often remained isolated ideas, this article seeks to investigate the nature of Soviet innovation by examining Soviet modernization through a case study of continuous pulp cooking. It will focus not only on the technological specifics of the innovation, but on social and political conditions.

  • Model-Based Optimization of a Compactcooking G2 Digesting Process Stage
    School of Chemical Technology Degree Programme of Chemical Technology Igor Saavedra MODEL-BASED OPTIMIZATION OF A COMPACTCOOKING G2 DIGESTING PROCESS STAGE Master’s thesis for the degree of Master of Science in Technology submitted for inspection, Espoo, 31 December 2015. Supervisor Prof. Sirkka-Liisa Jämsä-Jounela Instructors Dr. Ing. Aldo Cipriano D.Sc. Olli Joutsimo ABSTRACT OF MASTER’S THESIS Author Igor Saavedra Thesis title Model-based Optimization of a CompactCooking G2 Digesting Process Stage Department Biotechnology and Chemical Technology Abstract A CompactCooking™ G2 (Valmet) digesting system represents a challenging process stage to be optimized in the context of a kraft pulp mill. Its highly non-linear behavior due to liquor recycling and heat integration poses a barrier to traditional trial-and-error optimization conducted by physical lab-scale simulation. Hence, this thesis aims to design a solution based on numerical simulation and mathematical optimization, whose results can be directly applied on industrial-scale as computed optimal set-points for the supervisory control. Based on published, first-principles, pulp digester models, a customized dynamic model was developed in Matlab/Simulink to simulate a complete CompactCooking™ G2 stage. The process model is founded on Purdue wood reaction kinetics and Härkönen chips bed compaction models, and it seamlessly takes into account process characteristics mentioned above. The non-linear model was validated by comparison against historical data of an industrial unit (200 h), and then employed in the design of a steady-state optimizer for this process stage by means of linear programming. Simulation results showed very good agreement in terms of liquors residual alkali, weak black liquor solids, and blowline kappa, despite high uncertainty on disturbances data and model simplifications.
