Does Fastmarkets have water consumption or water treatment data for pulp, paper or wood and bioenergy mills?
Water usage and effluent data is not available to the extent that would allow good enough coverage, while the nature of water-related consumptions is more of a process-control-based decision rather than a clear and consistent consequence of equipment, process or technical age, similar to, for example, energy consumption. The result of these more complex characteristics is that water usage or effluent quantity and quality cannot be simulated in a meaningful way for the majority of mills.
