The Centre for Research and Innovation in the Bio-Economy, or CRIBE, are announcing an extension in their partnership with Greenfield Specialty Alcohols.
Greenfield is currently working on making pulp mills more efficient and will be testing new technology at the Terrace Bay Mill.
CRIBE CEO Lorne Morrow says if successful it would mean less waste for mills.
The project has two phases, the first of which saw CRIBE invest 1.5-million dollars, this most recent phase included an investment of 1.3-million dollars.
