The program revolves around how people make the difference to our organizations. Attendees can look forward to some outstanding speakers, presentations, and of course the always valuable networking. Another exciting development that I will report on at the upcoming conference is the potential hire of a full-time Executive Director. The Executive Committee is meeting at the end of this month to further explore job requirements and costs associated with such a hiring. The existing board of volunteers (in particular John Sunderland) has done a very good job of getting the organization on the right track financially and operationally. However, in order to stay on track we may need to hire a full-time Executive Director. Stay tuned. Our relationship with TAPPI continues to bear fruit. We are currently partnering on safety leadership and contractor safety training. See the article on TAPPI-Safe in this edition. I also want to mention that I have reviewed the list of this year’s safety award winners. Every year I am impressed by how many of you post incredibly industry leading safety records.

  • INFORMATION (C-07.Pdf)
    CAPABILITIES BOILER CIRCULATION STUDIES Boiler Circulation (Chemical Recovery, Biomass, and RDF/MSW Boilers) Circulation of water through boiler tubes is necessary to prevent tube overheating and potential failure. The need to conduct a circulation study on a boiler is typically dictated because of any one, or combination of, the following reasons: • To establish the maximum steaming rate at which circulation remains adequate. • To determine pressure part modifications needed to support a significant increase in fuel burning rate. • To evaluate the effect of changing boiler operating conditions (such as type of fuel or operating pressure) on circulation. • To evaluate the effect of changing heating surfaces on circulation. • To uncover factors causing repeat pressure part failures and/or tube overheating. • To investigate the cause of excessive scale depositions inside tubing. A valuable technique used by JANSEN during its analyses of circulation conditions is the application of Ultrasonic Flow Monitoring (UFM).

    NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: Susan Morgan, Corporate Communications The Millcraft Paper Company [email protected] 216-429-9836 The Millcraft Paper Company to Acquire the Midwest Business Assets of Ariva from Lindenmeyr Munroe, a Division of Central National-Gottesman Cleveland, Ohio, July 22, 2013: The Millcraft Paper Company today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire the United States Midwest-based business assets of Ariva Distribution, Inc. from Lindenmeyr Munroe (“Lindenmeyr”), a division of Central National- Gottesman Inc. (CNG). In a separate but coordinated business transaction, privately-held CNG entered into its own agreement with Domtar Corporation, Ariva’s parent company, pursuant to which Lindenmeyr, based in Purchase, New York, will first acquire Ariva’s entire U.S. operations. Millcraft’s acquisition includes Covington, Kentucky-based Ariva’s six Midwest locations in Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati, Fort Wayne and Indianapolis. The transaction is expected to close at the end of July, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions. “We couldn’t be more excited about the opportunity to integrate the Ariva operations into our Millcraft business model” said Travis Mlakar, Millcraft’s President. “The acquisition offers us new product lines, including expanded digital capabilities, Ariva’s expertise in packaging, and so much more. However, perhaps the most exciting aspect is the prospect of consolidating two incredible teams of people into a great organization which will continue to be focused on the customer going forward.” Millcraft has a long history of strategic acquisitions throughout its 93 years of business. The Ariva purchase supports the company’s continuing commitment to locally serve the Midwest fine printing paper market while diversifying its product and service platforms to meet the industry’s changing needs.
