Faculty note

John Katers of the Natural and Applied Sciences faculty will be participating in a panel discussion on anaerobic digestion at the Sustainable Packaging Forum in Dallas, Texas. The Sustainable Packaging Forum focuses on the latest sustainable packaging practices, business strategies and technologies from across the globe that support industry growth while meeting today’s sustainability challenges.

Of interest to “Eco U” longtimers: Katers will be joined on the panel by Norma McDonald from Organic Waste Systems, Inc., which is the U.S. rep for a technology (Dranco process) that has it roots at UW-Green Bay. Katers says he believes much of the original research on the Dranco process was done here more than three decades ago by Luc De Baere and Prof. Emeritus Lee Schwartz.
