The challenge of achieving more sustainable operations requires strong and concerted action to deliver on the goals of net zero carbon emissions. Decarbonization strategies focus on improving the efficiency of production systems and minimizing energy use, among others. Innovative, data-driven technologies like Pulp Wash Intelligence provide better control and optimization of washing stages, increasing black liquor solids and saving energy in evaporators.

Improved water efficiency means not only demonstrated commitment to your sustainability goals, but also improved production efficiency. Wet-end chemistry through PARETO™ Mixing Technology improves productivity while providing water and energy savings. This solution can help one mill save millions of gallons of water per year.

Decreasing the organic content (COD) of process water is a core aspect of water management system best practices. Financial and organizational investments in improving water management systems have provided great progress into reaching COD reduction goals, but the next step is integrating these best practices into the remaining operations. Ecolab offers a number of integrated wastewater treatment solutions and tools to efficiently analyze, evaluate, and treat your entire wastewater operation.
