Description: Here is a view of the Edmundston Fraser pulp and cardboard mill in 1945. We see on the left the Jensen bleach towers which fed bisulfate to the digester for cooking pulp. In the towers, sulphur was burned to produce a sulphuric gas. The gas rose up in the towers that also contained lime stones; water was added to produce bisulfate acid. The boiler room located on the right, provided steam energy for the digester in the process of fabricating pulp.
