As in the prior art, the outer surfaces of each set should have a release coating such as a fluorocarbon. The layer of hot-melt adhesive includes, by weight: 20-50% thermoplastic copolymer, 15-50% tackifying resin, and * 20-60% wax having a melting point of at least 60 C. As soon as the adhesive has cooled below its softening point, the stack can be fanned, thus breaking it into sets. Fanning can usually be performed within 45 seconds, because there is no need to wait for the adhesive to dry as has been necessary with the aqueous adhesives that have been used in the prior art.

  • The Pulp Invasion – Thailand
    CHRISLANG.ORG Join the transformation C The Pulp Invasion – Thailand By Chris Lang, published by WRM, December 2002. Back to contents (https://chrislang.org/2002/12/01/the-pulp-invasion-the-international-pulp-and- paper-industry-in-the-mekong-region/) THAILAND: The fast-growing pulp and paper industry This report looks at the expansion of the pulp and paper industry in Thailand. It starts with an overview of the industry today. Rather than providing a reliable source of paper needed by the people of Thailand, however, the industry today is dependent on imports, exports and lavish subsidies from the government and international “aid” agencies. The Thai government has actively supported the development of the industry, through subsidies, pro- cash crop and plantation policies, tax relief and favourable import duties on machinery imports. The second section looks at some of the government support, and includes a brief introduction to some of the background political situation in the country during the early 1990s. The third section looks at some of the international support to the industry in Thailand, largely through multilateral and bilateral “aid”. The fourth section looks at some of the Thai companies involved in the pulp and paper sector. While they have made profits, they have also run up enormous debts. This, accompanied by the economic crisis in 1997, has opened the door for international companies to buy up shares in Thai companies. Some of these companies are also profiled in this section, along with international consultants who provide advice and legitimacy for the industry. Associated with the expansion of the pulp and paper industry, the area of fast-growing tree plantations has also expanded, often with disastrous impacts for many local communities.

  • 8. Chemical Manufacturing and Processing Sources
    8. CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING AND PROCESSING SOURCES 8.1. BLEACHED CHEMICAL WOOD PULP AND PAPER MILLS In March 1988, EPA and the U.S. pulp and paper industry jointly released the results from a screening study that provided the first comprehensive data on formation and discharge of CDDs and CDFs from pulp and paper mills (U.S. EPA, 1988d). This early screening study of five bleached kraft mills ("Five Mill Study") confirmed that the pulp bleaching process was primarily responsible for the formation of the CDDs and CDFs. The study results showed that 2,3,7,8-TCDD was present in seven of nine bleached pulps, five of five wastewater treatment sludges, and three of five treated wastewater effluents. The study results also indicated that 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7,8-TCDF were the principal CDDs and CDFs formed. To provide EPA with more complete data on the release of these compounds by the U.S. industry, EPA and the U.S. pulp and paper industry jointly conducted a survey during 1988 of 104 pulp and paper mills in the United States to measure levels of 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7,8-TCDF in effluent, sludge, and pulp. This study, commonly called the 104 Mill Study, was managed by the National Council of the Paper Industry for Air and Stream Improvement, Inc. (NCASI), with oversight by EPA, and included all U.S. mills where chemically produced wood pulps were bleached with chlorine or chlorine derivatives. The final study report was released in July 1990 (U.S.

  • John's Corner
    www.natureswayresources.com JOHN’S CORNER Soil Amendments - Paper Sludge - By John Ferguson This week I want to mention another wood waste product that is used in horticulture and agriculture. Sludge is a generic term for several types of residues from pulp and paper making. In general the paper mill sludge's are highly fibrous containing a lot of cellulose and lignin. After reading over 50 technical papers and going through many textbooks on soil amendments, I found that there is a large variety in the sludge's produced. Some sludge's were very beneficial to plant growth while others were harmful and polluting. The sludge's today are much better than a couple decades ago where PCB's (sludge's that used carbonless copy paper), or dioxins were often found. Chlorine was used for many years to bleach the fibers white. Today many companies are using hydrogen peroxide which breaks down quickly in the environment to harmless components. The inks used to be petroleum based with heavy metals but today they are mostly vegetable oil based. Other ingredients include clay fillers, coating agents, inks, etc. Historically paper sludge's were disposed of by land filling, incineration or dumping into the ocean. Due to the current laws regarding air and water pollution the last two methods are not a viable option. Landfill rates are often over $100/ton in many areas of the country hence a very expensive option for companies producing paper products. Thus the paper industry is looking for less costly ways to get rid of paper sludge.

  • This Is Norske Skog in Words and Numbers
    This is Norske Skog in words and numbers. Norske Skog is a leading Norwegian industrial company which focu- ses on these core areas: printing paper for newspapers and maga- zines, bleached sulphate pulp, and wood-based building materials. The Group has about 5,800 employees, and its operating income in 1996 was NOK 13,265 million. 78% of its income came from export markets, primarily in Europe, but also in the US and the Far East. The Group operates 23 companies in Norway, one mill in Austria and one in France. Its activities are organized in fourAreas: Paper, Fibre, Building Materials and Resources. In printing paper, Norske Skog is one of the world's leading suppliers, with capacity of 2.3 million tonnes in a market that totals about 50 million tonnes. Norske Skog is the third largest manufactu- rer of printing paper in Europe, and the world's fifth largest news- print producer. The pulp sold by the Group is used in the production of printing paper, fine paper and tissue. Norske Skog Bygg AS is Norway's largest producer of building materials: sawn timber for building purposes, board for the building and furniture industries, and flooring products. Since its foundation in 1962, Norske Skog has grown rapidly through mergers with other companies, and major investments in new mills, both in Norway and abroad. Since 1990 the Group has in- creased its printing paper capacity by one million tonnes, or just over 70%. Norske Skog has a sound financial basis, with total assets of NOK 16,623 million, and an equity capital ratio of 45,9%.
