Paper Recycling Conference Now Offers Operations Track

The Recycling Today Media Group has announced that the 2010 Paper Recycling Conference & Trade Show, to be held June 13–15 in downtown Chicago, will feature a new Plant Operations track.

This programming track will offer sessions geared specifically toward general managers, operations managers and other recycling professionals who work to process recovered fiber on a daily basis.

Among the Plant Operations track sessions providing plant managers with expert advice and analysis are:

• “Pulling the Trigger on Plant Expansion” – A panel of recyclers offers insight into how they decided the time was right to invest in additional processing capacity. Confirmed panelists include City Carton Recycling President Andy Ockenfels and FCR Inc. Vice President of Operations Dave Lank.

• “Adjusting MRFs to Changing Streams” – Recycling plant designers discuss operations in an environment of less ONP (old newspaper) and a wider variety of collected grades in the fiber mix. Confirmed speakers include Smurfit-Stone Recycling’s Dave Farrow and Metro Waste Paper Recovery’s Dan Lantz.

• “Safe and Sound” – Critical advice on operating a safe MRF or paper stock plant is offered by plant safety experts. ISRI’s Director of Safety John Gilstrap and Recycling Services’ Tomas Vujovic will be speaking at this session.

In addition, the Paper Recycling Conference also will offer attendees a Commodities & Trading track and a Collection & Municipal Markets track. Conference attendees will have the option to attend sessions from all three programming tracks in addition to several plenary sessions.
