1 Dear Customer, Dear Reader, the Twogether Issue No 15 in Front Of 1 Dear Customer, dear Reader, The twogether issue No 15 in front of you clearly represents Voith Paper Technology’s wide spectrum of products and services it offers to the pulp and paper industry as well as its truly global representation. You will read about the fastest, widest and most productive commodity-grade paper machines of Voith origin as well as such special items as the production of bank note papers. The success of these installations is augmented by our competence in the field of Fiber Systems, Automation, Finishing, Roll Service and Roll Cover technology and last, but not least, the clothing expertise of Voith Fabrics. The synergies between Voith Paper and Voith Fabrics are well in place and appreciated by our customers. We are in the process of moving our Voith Fabrics headquarters from Raleigh, North Carolina, USA to Southern Germany. We are convinced that this move will further strengthen the positions of Voith Fabrics and Voith Paper (Voith Hans Müller Paper Technology) in the marketplace. In the past business year we successfully inte- grated Jagenberg’s paper technology activities, the recycling and dewatering division of Kvaerner Pulping and Finckh into the Voith Group of companies. Our focus will now be even more directed towards research and development and the expected growth resulting from new products and services. Our overall performance in the past business year 2001/02 was quite satisfactory in all business results except for order intake. The overall business environment and specifically that of the pulp and paper industry left its mark. However, the first four months of our new business year (starting October 1st, 2002) showed a remarkable recovery in orders received for the current business year and we are quite certain that we will reach our planned order intake. With the acquisition phase virtually completed and with the formation of the new Automation Division Voith Paper Technology now offers products and services that are second to none in completeness. On behalf of all Voith employees serving the pulp and paper industry I wish you an enjoyable read. Hans Müller, on behalf of the Voith Paper Technology team 2 Startup highlights in 2001/2002 Fiber Systems Moritz J.

  • 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.

  • Optimisation of the Norske Skog Activated Sludge Wastewater Treatment Plant at Boyer: the Role of Trace Metals and Vitamins
    Optimisation of the Norske Skog activated sludge wastewater treatment plant at Boyer: The role of trace metals and vitamins Jason Barnett BEnvSc (Honours) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Chemistry University of Tasmania June 2013 Declaration I declare this thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution, except by way of back ground information and duly referenced in the thesis. To the best of the candidate’s knowledge and belief, no material previously published or written by another person is included in the text of the thesis except where due reference is made in the text of the thesis. 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.

  • 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.

  • Business Possibilities of Finnish Pulp Sector in Vietnamese Market
    Thao Huong Mai 1301189 BUSINESS POSSIBILITIES OF FINNISH PULP SECTOR IN VIETNAMESE MARKET Bachelor’s Thesis International Business September 2015 Author Degree Time Thao Huong Mai Bachelor of September 2015 International Business Thesis Title Business Possibilities of Finnish Pulp Sector in Vietnamese Market 78 pages 2 pages of appendices Commissioned by Kymenlaakso University of Applied Sciences Supervisor Senior Lecturer Pia Kaari Abstract Pulp and paper industry is a very important industry in many countries. The birth of paper was a mark of another level in science and technology, bringing human beings to new civilized era. Although pulp industry plays an important role in economy, its scale in Vietnam is considered small compared to many other countries. Pulp production technology is at a low level and has developed slowly. Moreover, the pulp and paper production process exhausts a significant amount of waste in solid, liquid and gas, which needs a high-tech process to reduce the pollution and be friendly with environment. Because of the current situation in Vietnam, paper and pulp industry is in transforming period with high potential business in pulp sector, which is demanding the developed science and high technology to meet industry requirement as well as environment issues. Therefore, this thesis is created to assist Finnish pulp and paper enterprises evaluate the potential of Vietnamese market in pulp sector. The objectives of the research are to evaluate the possibility for Finnish paper enterprises to operate technologies and equipment in pulp sector in the Vietnamese market, and to suggest these companies different market entry options to be successful in extending the business to target market.
