 Print this article | Send to Colleague
The Dissolving Pulp Forum at this year's TAPPI PEERS Conference, October 2 -5, at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Ore., USA, examines the still-evolving specialty cellulose "gold rush" from three basic perspectives. Following a Sunday afternoon (October 2) opening presentation by global consultants, The dp Group, on latest process developments and technologies worldwide, suppliers including Andritz and Metso, will explore systems approaches being used in several major conversion and expansion projects underway around the world. Jacobs Engineering then examines options, directions, and considerations for companies evaluating dissolving pulp production.
On Monday morning (October 3), the Forum shifts focus with a special bridge session into the main PEERS program that looks at current market developments around the world and the developing outlook for dissolving pulp production and demand for the next two to three years. During this session, RISI and Poyry International will examine the dissolving pulp "path" into the foreseeable future and explore forces likely to control progress as well as setbacks along the way, including recent successes as well as failures of global cotton crops.
More information, including registration, is available online for the Dissolving Pulp Forum and 2011 PEERS, as well at the 2011 International Pulp Bleaching Conference being held at the Oregon Convention Center immediately following PEERS, on October 5-7.
