Effisludge – For a sustainable, energy efficient pulp and paper industry

For a sustainable and energy efficient pulp and paper industry.

An ambition plan to optimise onsite wastewater treatment by enhancing biosludge production while reducing energy demand. Supported by the European programme LIFE, EffiSludge for LIFE works towards a future where European pulp and paper mills are the core of a new green economy.

RT @LiU_EnvChange: #Biogas-produktion kan vara både billigare och mer platseffektiv lösning för vattenrening vid pappersmassabruk. @ekstrand_eva från @LiU_EnvChange berättar i Vetenskapsradion om sin forskning kring rötning av avloppsslam från pappersmassabruk https://t.co/qMefww8ZLv @SRvetenskap

”The pulp and paper manufacturing sector is energy and raw materials intensive, with high capital costs and long investment cycles. The industry has an excellent track record in resource efficiency and innovation. It is a pioneer in making the EU low-carbon bioeconomy an industrial reality.”
