Smallwood 2006 Moves East

Smallwood 2006 will provide current up-to-date information on woody biomass and small tree utilization and will foster peer-to-peer learning. Enormous quantities of biomass are being generated from thinning operations, land clearing, and hurricane disasters. These issues drive the need to create solutions for using low-value and waste wood. The conference will include an international slate of speakers, including researchers, material and equipment suppliers, manufacturers, and end-users. Smallwood 2006 will feature technical and poster presentations, discussions, and tabletop displays. The conference will also include tours on Thursday, May 18, in the surrounding Richmond area of mill sites, biomass energy facilities, and small forest products businesses, a state-of-the-art small log sawmill, and related forest products businesses. Topics include:Community Partnerships Forest Health Restoration Supply and Availability Harvesting Systems Processing and Manufacturing Markets for Products Energy from Woody Biomass Workforce Training
