FPInnovations’ partnership with Natural Resources Canada’s CanmetENERGY continues to stimulate the Canadian Pulp and Paper (P&P) industry by focusing on energy management, process debottleneck to facilitate the diversification of products, and reduction of greenhouse gases emissions (GHG). Energy efficiency and process debottlenecking have become essential to the P&P industry in Canada to maximize mill assets operation and utilization and to facilitate the integration of new technologies as they transition to become carbon-negative processes and biorefineries. Energy efficiency is a key pillar of Canada’s climate change policy [1]. The P&P industry is one of the most energy-intensive sectors in Canada. Energy consumption in this sector represents 15% of the Canadian industrial sector secondary energy use [2]. Although the industry covers most of its energy requirements with biomass fuels, fossil fuels are still used to produce heat and power, and for calcination of lime mud in the kraft process.
