Canadians Change Waste Into Wealth
University of Toronto researchers completed 315 projects this year. They recovered sulfur from smelter fumes by trapping sulfur dioxide and concentrating it into sulfur. They also treated logs to prevent sinking and converted distant natural gas into a chlorinated liquid for easy transport. Defective pulpwoods, notably pine and spruce, now yield usable material, increasing harvests by about 50 percent.
