From Wood to Pulp: Innovation & Processing Summit

The conference brings together experts from the pulp fibre production industry and related by-product value chains. Participants exchange knowledge, share experiences and discuss the latest developments in raw material handling, wood and fibre processing. The programme highlights technologies that improve quality, efficiency and sustainability.

Tailored for professionals involved in woodchip handling, woodyard operations and pulp production, the summit provides a valuable forum for knowledge-sharing, discussion and collaboration. Through inspiring presentations, practical case studies and interactive dialogue, participants will gain fresh insights into the journey from wood to pulp, while exploring global and regional market conditions, as well as the technologies and innovations shaping the future of the industry.

The conference is organised in collaboration with our conference partners

Studies of Wood and Wood Handling

Studying wood can provide insights that are crucial to answering several important questions in the pulp and paper industry, one of which is whether it is possible to introduce new wood species into production while maintaining the desired properties of the resulting pulp.

Analysis of wood chips for pulp & paper production

The quality of the wood chips is critical to the production of pulp, and at RISE we offer several different analyses to ensure the quality of the wood chips. By carefully examining and evaluating various properties, we can identify any defects or deviations that may affect the production process and the quality of the resulting pulp.

Separation of cellulose

The separation of cellulose from forests, agriculture and the sea constitutes a fundamental aspect of biorefinery and sustainable production. The Earth's circular and renewable raw materials are in demand and should be sufficient for a considerable amount, and this demand is increasing.
Expertise

Scales and deposits

Formation of various precipitates that disturbs the process are common in the pulp and paper industry and can result in large losses of production. RISE has a unique competence and experimental equipment for investigating causes and solutions to these problems, where two examples are scaling in black liquor evaporators and the fiber line.

Bleaching of Cellulose

By understanding the bleaching process and making the necessary adjustments and optimisations, the pulp and paper industry can produce high-quality products with the desired properties and durability. This not only helps to fulfil customer requirements and expectations, but also reduces environmental impact and promotes sustainable production.
Composites / Expertise

Process simulation

The use of finite element-based models for simulating composite manufacturing processes is an efficent way to evaluate manufacturing concepts without the need for expensive full-scale testing equipment. The aim of the simulations can be, for example, to predict the final shape of the product, mechanical properties or residual stresses.
