ACTIVITIES Consultancy
work is aimed either at providing expertise otherwise lacking within the
client organisation or simply providing extra resources at times when
in-house resources are being stretched. The use of consultancy services may
thus be essential at certain times, but is no substitute for adequate
training of full-time personnel, which provides enhanced in-house expertise
available to the company all the time. This can be achieved by many methods
from reading relevant journals to attending conferences. The former is
relatively cheap and accessible to all staff, but rarely given adequate time,
whereas the latter tends to be expensive and consequently limited at most to
one person. An intermediate approach is on-site training which has the
benefit of being able to bring together a group of people all interested in
the same objective and working to a common aim. Envirocell
organises focused seminars aimed at different audiences within the pulp and
paper sector. These are put on as general seminars at a central location, but
also as customised seminars put
on at a company's site. General
seminars The
current standard seminar programmes are as follows: Introduction to paper chemistry Wet end chemistry for papermakers Wastewater treatment at paper mills Optimising water close-up at paper mills Optimising wastewater treatment at paper mills Optimising waste management at
paper mills Management and technical options for environmentally-sound papermaking Carbon
characterisation and profiling for papermakers If there
are adequate numbers within one company, it is often better to do the seminar
in-house as this allows a more focused programme and greater freedom for
discussion. The programmes can cover the above stand-alone programmes,
combinations of these programmes or programmes aimed at specific groups of
people in the company. Examples of the latter are: - Practical
Paper Chemistry,
a one day programme developed for paper machine operators -
Practical Effluent Treatment, a one day programme for effluent treatment
plant operators, based on the optimising |
