OSTI ID:5154029

Forest products industries in the 201-county Tennessee Valley region produced 8.7 million tons (initial condition) of industrial wood and bark residues in 1984. In the 125-county Tennessee Valley watershed, 4.8 million tons of residues were produced. Use of these residues was similar for both areas (201 area - 87.2% and 125 area - 86.8%). These residues were used chiefly for pulp and industrial fuel. This report highlights changes in the production and use of plant by-products since 1975. Detailed information is presented by industry and county on the type, condition, amount, and use of residues produced. The information is designed for use by firms plannng expansions or new developements using wood and bark residues as a raw material. 7 refs., 4 figs., 6 tabs.
