Domtar Papers' land application: experience at Cornwall

Domtar Papers at Cornwall has developed a unique program to use mill residues beneficially Since 1994 at Domtar, uses have evolved for most of the residues produced at the mill, such as primary cellulose fibre, bark, lime and secondary treatment biosolids. From September 1995 to now, all secondary treatment biosolids have been diverted to farms, forestry or land rehabilitation sites. In 1997, Domtar was able to direct more than 90% of residues produced to beneficial use.
