18 Jan 2024 --- Stakeholders of the forest industry, technology companies, research organizations and universities, employing around 20 full-time researchers, have joined forces to “revolutionize” traditional pulping processes, decreasing carbon emissions and reducing water usage. The Emission Free Pulping research program runs under the joint leadership of the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and the RISE Research Institutes of Sweden. The program intends to improve energy efficiency, enhance the effectiveness of wood usage and conversion to products, achieve emission-free pulping (mainly carbon dioxide emissions) and reduce water usage in the processes.
