Calhoun Station researchers aim for no waste in wood
forest at Calhoun

Researchers at the Calhoun Research Station are developing new uses for small-diameter trees and for recycled wood. They are producing new chemicals and products by recycling preservatives and wood fiber from decommissioned telephone poles. They also have projects involving partial harvesting of unmanaged forests to improve tree growth and production of wood chips for energy.
