About Us

SO2 and HCl emissions from stack gases in many of the approximately 500 pulp & paper mills in North America are serious air pollution concerns. The EPA's MACT standards, the air portion of the Cluster Rule which covers emissions of hazardous air pollutants in pulp & paper mills (http://www.epa.gov/ttn/atw/pulp/pulppg.html), demonstrate that solutions to air pollution need to be found.
Established by Solvay Chemicals, Inc. in 2005, the SOLVAir® Products group offers the products that can help mills comply with regulations affecting the pulp & paper market.
