Cascades uses nonrecyclable material for energy.Cascades Fine Papers Group, Rolland Division, has executed a plan to reduce greenhouse gas greenhouse gas n. Any of the atmospheric gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect. greenhouse gas emissions in partnership with Intersan and Gaz Metro. Through the program, Intersan captures biogas bi·o·gas n. A mixture of methane and carbon dioxide produced by bacterial degradation of organic matter and used as a fuel. biogas Noun gaseous fuel produced by the fermentation of organic waste generated from the decomposition decomposition /de·com·po·si·tion/ (de-kom?pah-zish´un) the separation of compound bodies into their constituent principles. de·com·po·si·tion n. 1. of waste buried at its Sainte-Sophie, Quebec, landfill. Gaz Metro transports the gas through a 13-km pipeline to Cascades' paper mill, where the biogas produces energy to help power the plant's equipment. Cascades forecasts that this green energy will fulfill 75 percent of its thermal power requirements. The project required a CAN $2 million investment by Cascades and was implemented in partnership with Intersan and Gaz Metro. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Cascades, Intersan provides the green energy at a competitive price, enabling Cascades to fulfill a major part of the fuel requirements of the Saint-Jerome, Quebec, paper mill for the next 10 years, while also reducing its energy costs. |
