"Weyerhaeuser
Guarantee Combustion By Design"
October 2001
After a lengthy tendering process
involving a number of suppliers, Weyerhaeuser has signed
a three-year agreement with Kiln Flame Systems Ltd. (KFS) for
combustion engineering
and burner equipment services for its eleven lime recovery kilns in North
America. The KFS
team has already provided combustion equipment to three of these kilns
and will supply
additional equipment and services throughout the period of the agreement,
thereby
guaranteeing Weyerhaeuser access to cutting-edge combustion expertise in
its lime
recovery processes.
The decision to choose
KFS came from Weyerhaeuser's desire for combustion expertise
that extends beyond traditional burner equipment supply. The KFS
combustion solutions
and equipment design are underpinned by proprietary aerodynamic,
combustion and
mathematical modeling techniques that have been validated through
extensive industrial
experience.
As KFS Director Richard Manning states, "We are obviously very excited
that one of North
America's major players in the pulp and paper industry has recognized our
special expertise
and wants us to develop closer links with both its mills and technical
engineering center".
