PE Tech's study for pulp mill kilns shows biomass burners replacing gas, yielding significant carbon savings and operational cost reductions, with a promising return on investment.
The potential for renewable energy production positions anaerobic digestion as a technology to watch in the industry. It remains a strong example of the economic and environmental opportunities sustainable technology provides when strategically employed. Stay tuned to PE Tech for more insights into industry developments and innovative solutions.
Under the BC Hydro Low Carbon Electrification (LCE) program, PE Tech produced a compelling study evaluating the feasibility of enhanced biomass fuel efficiency within a BC pulp and paper mill. The primary objective was to determine if pre-drying hog fuel prior to use in the power boiler could significantly reduce the natural gas consumption needed to evaporate moisture, thereby curtailing carbon emissions.
PE Tech collaborated with CleanBC and major industrial clients to become a leader in delivering increased efficiencies, lowered energy consumption, and reduced emissions through process, equipment and control system (DCS) upgrades
PE Tech's study, backed by the CleanBC Industrial Incentive Program, suggests that installing a flash dryer in a BC pulp mill's lime kiln could significantly cut fossil fuel use and GHG emissions, aligning with global sustainability practices.
PE Tech's study reveals major sustainability gains in BC fish farming through grid power electrification, promising over 99% fossil fuel reduction and up to $58.8 million in savings, while highlighting potential for further efficiency enhancements.
