EDT to Exhibit at PaperWeek Canada 2016


EDT will be an exhibitor at PaperWeek Canada 2016, which will be held at the 'Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth Hotel' in Montreal, Canada, from February 1-5, 2016. PaperWeek Canada is a global platform for the advancement of the pulp & paper and forest products industry and is the sector's preeminent annual conference and tradeshow in Canada. EDT’s enzyme-based technologies center on a variety of value propositions for the processing of recovered wastepaper for the manufacture of tissue and towel. In particular, EDT will be focusing on strategies employed with client mills to reduce wastepaper cost, enhance fiber yield, control stickies, and reduce total energy costs used in production. 

Founded in 1994, Enzymatic Deinking Technologies, LLC (EDT) is a pioneer and leader in the development and commercialization of enzyme-based treatments for the pulp and paper industry. EDT's applications span both recovered fiber and virgin pulp processing. In fiber recycling applications, the company works with mills on customized treatments for a variety of value propositions spanning improvements in optical properties, physical properties, and throughput/operations. The company has an increasing focus of work in energy reduction and in helping mills reach their corporate sustainability goals. Each treatment is tailored to a mill's furnish, deink plant system, key operating conditions, as well as the desired goals from the application. EDT works with mills processing virgin pulp in the extractives management of mechanical pulps, fiber modification, and in the bio-bleaching of bleached kraft pulps. 

Based in Norcross, Georgia, USA, EDT has been providing mill-specific enzyme-based solutions to pulp and paper mills throughout the world since the mid 1990s.
