Control of VOC emissions from mechanical pulping beyond BAT (VOCless pulping)
Start date: Oct 1, 2006, End date: Sep 30, 2009,
Background
Emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and related odour problems are an important environmental problem. VOCs present a specific health and safety issue in affected workplaces as well as both a nuisance and a health-risk factor in the surrounding communities.
Mechanical and semi-mechanical pulp production is a notable source of VOC e ...
