Lrj Department of Ck( The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date 3 /. DE-6 (2/88) 11 ABSTRACT This work presents data toward the development of a new zero-liquid discharge (ZLD) system, the aim of which is to concentrate a liquid effluent thereby recovering process water. The crystallization technology used in this work is clathrate hydrate crystal formation. A screening of clathrate hydrate formers was performed and three were chosen, propane, carbon dioxide, and a 30-70 mol% propane - carbon dioxide mixture. Experiments were carried out with these substances in a vessel that was immersed in a temperature controlled bath. The effluent samples used in this study were generated at four pulp mills, an unbleached and a bleached thermo-mechanical pulp mill (TMP1, TMP2), a bleached chemi-thermo-mechanical pulp mill (BCTMP), and a combined bleached BCTMP/TMP mill (CTMP).

  • TIMBER & Forestry
    Chapter 19 TIMBER & Forestry The single most dangerous action you can take on this tour is failing to pay attention while travelling on the route. Do NOT read the following chapter while actively moving by vehicle, car, foot, bike, or boat. TIMBER and Forestry Driving Tour To avoid possible forest fires, My thanks to Mike Gogo please DON’T SMOKE for the & Sandy Macham for their parts of this tour found west input to this chapter of Highway 19, in city parks, and/or in forests during your travel. Thank you very much. COMMON CONIFEROUS TREES Coniferous trees bear cones and most kinds are evergreen, since they do not lose their needles in fall. The heavily watered rain forests of coastal BC have always offered enormous conifers of all kinds: cedar, fir, spruce and hemlock. Each one had its own specialized use. The lightness, water resiliency, and resistance to decay of red cedar have historically been useful in ship building, roof shingling, and finishing work. The strength, durability, and hardness of Douglas fir made it perfect for construction purposes. The fast growth in poor soil and knot-free grain of Sitka spruce made it ideal for ship masts and musical instrument manufacture. The softness of western hemlock made it the best choice for ornamental lumber or pulp and paper production. These are likely trees you may see along this tour. Red Cedar Douglas Fir Sitka Spruce Western Hemlock Differentiating appearances of bark from four trees commonly found near Nanaimo A BRIEF HISTORY OF LOCAL FORESTRY Initially, the Snuneymuxw (original inhabitants) carefully used wood for building their longhouses and carving their canoes and totems.
