Water Supply and Treatment
FisherSolve's Water Module shows water and wastewater flows for each mill. It includes data on volume source, application, destination, and treatment methods for each site's incoming water, outgoing wastewater, and sludge. This data can be used to measure water consumption per ton and compare it to the mill's water risk.
-
Production Data
FisherSolve provides information on machine, line, mill, and company production data covering all grades and finished products, furnish and fiber details, speed, width, trim, and asset descriptions.
Our platform describes products produced in hierarchies, separated by Major Grade, Grade, Finished Products, Bleached/Unbleached, Coated/Uncoated, On-Off-machine coating, and Machine PH to facilitate analysis of the over 500 paper and market pulp products.
-
Manufacturing Costs and Mass-Balance
Users can model every mill, pulp line, and machine's cost-of-production through FisherSolve's rich asset and raw material database to increase their understanding of mill operations with reliable insights into real-world modeled costs.
Our data-driven mass-energy balance engine delivers transparent results, detailing the costs of each machine and its products, rolling data up by level, including:
- Stage of the manufacturing process
- Line, mill, company, country, region, and global
- The finished product, grade, major grade, total
- Type of cost input
-
Capacity Trends
FisherSolve's Capacity Trends module allows users to analyze quarterly historic and announced actions for any grade and region segment in the industry.
Draw strategic-level conclusions with the ability to see how each machine's assets and production capacity have evolved.
-
Installed Costs
Replacement costs, also known as installed costs, are unique to FisherSolve.
With replacement costs of every major unit operation in every mill in the world, combined with our proprietary measure of assets' technical age, you can understand the magnitude of investment required to bring each asset up to current standards.

Virtual Mills
Our Virtual Mill feature allows you to create a confidential, user-defined mill that passes through Fisher's proprietary mass and energy balance model and can represent any greenfield, brownfield, rebuild, or grade change project.
Virtual mill inputs are defined by you with the Fisher consultant's expertise. The virtual mills are modeled with the same rigor as existing sites and the results - such as cash costs, energy consumption, or carbon emissions - can be visualized and benchmarked against existing sites and other virtual mills in FisherSolve.
Analysis of your virtual mill results can provide significant insights for decision-making as multiple scenarios can be evaluated.
