Discounted Registration for PEERS and IBBC has been extended to September 21. In addition, discounted hotel rooms at the host hotel, the Savannah Marriott Riverside, are available on a first-come, first-serve basis through September 21.
New Program Addition: Safety Training Session (Session 13 led by Matthew Kanneberg, RockTenn) an interactive training session sponsored by the Pulp and Paper Safety Association exploring the four (4) stages of safety learning and help participants identify their current organizational safety level. This analysis will identify actions needed to support an injury free team from planning through implementation to delivering safe solutions throughout the organization.
PEERS is a "must attend" event for anyone seeking to make their mill run more efficiently. The Pulping Program focuses on ways to improve kraft pulping to afford pulps that are more uniform in quality and to afford higher pulp yields. The Engineering Program has added a focused one-day session focusing on OpEx Maintenance and Reliability. The Environmental Program will address the challenges and costs involved in keeping up with the regulations of the U.S. paper industry. The Recycling Program brings together experts from around the world to present new technological breakthroughs related to fractional pulping, absorption deinking and electrostatic deinking. Keynote Speaker Don Roberts will discuss why the pulp and paper industry should be open to change by presenting a case study in commercializing an emerging bio-energy technology and the key success factors as part of the Sustainability Program.
PEERS is co-located with IBBC, the only conference that is dedicated to examining applications of biorefineries in the pulp and paper industry - offering you a deeper analysis of technology and economics in commercializing biorefineries. See the Full Program.
