Deadline for registration ends 20th october 2022

INTRODUCTION

This three days course provides a deep analysis of whole tissue paper production process from fibres selection to Stock Preparation, from Tissue Machine to Slitter Rewinder as well as tissue products characterization and quality and energy saving.
The innovative course format is based on academic presentation of the Tissue Production processes: each unitary operation function and description is then integrated with Special Lectures by specialists from the most international important equipment suppliers.
Participants have the opportunity of attending to a course where specific topics and latest innovations are presented by international experts; special meeting sessions are also organized for face-to-face meetings of participants with the speakers.
Enrico Galli (Tissue Consultant - Chairman) shall present the tissue production process,  coordinate specialists’ interventions and moderate following extended question and answer sessions.
The preliminary speakers panel includes technicians from Tissue Machine and equipment companies as ACelli (Yankee, Slitter-Rewinder), Lantier (creping), RUNTECH (Vacuum systems, energy savings), VALMET (refining, “hybrid” tissue machines, press section, Yankee, Slitter-Rewinder)  VOITH (refining, “hybrid” tissue machines, TAD, forming session, press section, felts, fabrics and sleeves, dry-end, energy saving, creping), chemicals suppliers for enzymatic refining, wet-end chemistry, coating, softness chemicals) as BUCKMAN and SOLENIS (enzymatic refining, wet-end chemistry, coating) and fibres and pulp specialists as RAIZ (fibres for tissue).
Presentations will be in english, but the question and answer sessions could be translated to portuguese.
