Financial Assistance: Institute of Paper Science and Technology (IPST), Atlanta, GA

요약

The U.S. Department of Energy, Idaho Operations Office, announces that pursuant to the DOE Financial Assistance Rules 10 CFR 600.7, it intends to renew Grant Number DE-FG02-85CE40738 to Institute of Paper Science and Technology, Atlanta, Georgia. It is DOE's intent to provide funds for the renewal of a project entitled: ``Advanced Water Removal Processes for Drying in the Pulp and Paper Industry-- Impulse Drying''. The project goal is to demonstrate through pilot testing a novel water removal process, Impulse Drying, for the manufacture of paper. Utilizing this process would greatly reduce the energy and associated costs required for the full cycle of drying required for paper manufacture. The original proposal ``Advanced Water Removal Processes for Drying in the Pulp and Paper Industry'' was submitted to DOE by IPST in May 1984 as an unsolicited proposal. The project has previously been funded at a cost of $5,152,000 with a 35% IPST cost share. The proposed renewal will have a duration of two (2) years. IPST proposed total cost is $2,446,250 of which the proposed DOE cost is $1,957,000 and IPST's and associated partner's proposed cost- share is $489,250 (20%) of the total cost.
