Pope & Talbot Cuts Steam Use, Reduces Energy Costs at Harmac Mill

摘要

At pope & talbot LTD's harmac pulp mill in Nanaimo, B.C, two hog-fired power boilers were shut down in the spring of 1999 to reduce maintenance and manning costs, simplify operation of the boiler house, and improve mill environmental performance. In an effort to decommission the boilers without increasing the fossil fuel consumption of the remaining boilers, mill steam consumption had to be reduced by approximately 60,000 lb/hr.
