The BLRBAC stands for Black Liquor Recovery Boiler Advisory Committee. It was formed in 1961 as a non-profit trade association dedicated to improved safety of chemical recovery boilers, and their auxiliaries, through the interchange of technical knowledge, experience, and data on past and any future recovery boiler incidents.
It's formation stemmed from an alarming number of explosions, injuries, and deaths involving Black Liquor Recovery Boilers. Industry professionals from insurance companies, paper companies, and boiler companies agreed to create the BLRBAC for the purpose of generating safety procedures and guidelines that govern the operation of Black Liquor Recovery Boilers.
The BLRBAC has a number of active sub-committees that are constantly reviewing and updating their safety guidelines to reflect current technology and knowledge.
The Black Liquor Recovery Boiler Advisory Committee meets twice a year in Atlanta GA, usually the first week in April and October.
