On-going project: Continuous digester runability - MIHA

General

The MIHA-project considers improvement of pulp mill runability, focusing particularly in changes in the raw-material (chips).

 

The target is to better understand the root causes for runability problems and develop improved feedforward and feedback controls via advanced monitoring, aiming to reduction in runability problems.

 

The work is conducted as a subcontracted project related to Forest Cluster’s EffFibre Program WP6 on “Future pulp mill development”.
