This PAPTAC biorefinery course will seek to provide the knowledge and tools for forest industry leaders, technology providers, and consultants to develop bioenergy strategies and better understand emerging bioenergy technologies and their design/implementation in a business strategy.

More specifically, the course is intended for corporate and mill leadership – including mill managers and senior technical staff – who wish to become more knowledgeable about biorefinery implementation strategy and design methods, and who seek to identify and select the best biorefinery strategy for their mills. A total of 19 expert instructors from across North America and Europe will share their experience during the three days, generally structured as follows:

Day 1: Advanced Biorefinery Fundamentals
Day 2: Setting Biorefinery Strategy
Day 3: Biorefinery Techno-Economics and Case Studies

The course format has been designed to encourage exchange between instructors and participants, and a copy of the newly-released book of "Integrated Biorefineries: Design, Analysis, and Optimization" will be included in the registration price. For your information, the same course will also be offered by TAPPI and co-sponsored by PAPTAC this September in Green Bay, Wis., USA. Learn more about that course.

We look forward to being in touch with you regarding this opportunity.
