  • Measurement of S and Na Distribution in Impregnated Wood Chip by XRF
    Measurement of S and Na distribution in impregnated wood chip by XRF Hafizur Rahman1, Siwen An2, Börje Norlin3, Erik Persson4 and Per Engstrand5. Department of Chemical Engineering, FSCN1, 4, 5 & Department of Electronics, STC2, 3, Mid Sweden University, Sweden. Summary As there are increasing demands to replace plastics especially as packaging material with renewable, easy to recycle and compostable materials as those produced by paper industry, there is an increasing demand also to improve the fundamental scientific understanding of pulp and paper manufacturing systems. High yield pulping (HYP) processes, such as CTMP, are increasingly interesting for packaging material as well as manufacturing of hygiene paper. The yield from wood chips to final fiber is about 90%-98% and due to that, the lignin (28% of coniferous wood) plays a key role when designing properties of packing materials. A key unit operation when producing CTMP is the pre-treatment of wood chips before defibration. In order to separate the wood to individual fibers with a minimum amount of electricity it is necessary to soften the lignin. The lignin is softened by means of a combination of sulphonation at high pH and elevated temperatures in the preheater and in the refiner, where the fiber separation occurs. As the size of wood chips is normally about 20 mm in length, 3-4 mm in thickness at the same time the fiber size is 20-40 μm in width with 1.5-5 mm in length, it is challenging to create a process technology that gives an even distribution across the wood chips of the sodium sulphite (Na2SO3) containing liquid used for impregnation.

When fibers or fiber containing material are lost, valuable and scarce material is being lost and thrown away. In addition, costs also increase, since besides the raw material loss, there is a residue to handle, to transport and to dispose away. This residue is also called pollution. For this reason, generating fibrous solid wastes in pulp mills is a great ingenuousness, impacting on our costs and on nature.

Introduction The purpose of this manual is to present an easy to understand description of the stock preparation refin- ing process. Useful methods for analyzing the process will be presented, together with guidelines for the proper selection of refiner fillings and operation of refiners. It is difficult to learn about pulp refining without first knowing something about the overall process of papermaking. This introductory manual will provide a very brief discussion of the process of converting trees into finished paper products. To include such a broad scope of information requires a certain degree of simplification. Nevertheless, the big picture is very helpful when considering pulp refining applications, identifying process problems and recognizing the real economic opportunities of an optimized system. The refining technologist must learn how to select refiner fillings and operate refiners so as to optimize the performance of the paper being produced using available raw materials.

  • The Lost Art of Splitting Paper: Recreating the Interventions of an Eighteenth-Century Collector Mulshine, ANAGPIC 2017, 1
    Shannon Mulshine Conservation Center, Institute of Fine Arts, NYU Supervisors: Margaret H. Ellis, Giada Damen, Lyndsey Tyne The Lost Art of Splitting Paper: Recreating the interventions of an eighteenth-century collector Mulshine, ANAGPIC 2017, 1 Introduction Splitting Paper & Paper Splitting: Origins and Brief History Splitting paper is a procedure by which one makes two sheets from one. Rather than cutting the top half from the bottom half, or performing any other variation of simple dismemberment, splitting separates the recto from the verso by dividing a sheet through its thickness. The product is two thinner sheets of the same dimensions (l/w). Historically, paper was split for many reasons. The earliest paper splitting was probably undertaken for the discrete addition of margins to trimmed prints. Pierre-Jean Mariette, an eighteenth-century collector and connoisseur of prints and drawings, may have been the first to apply the technique to entire drawings (Smentek, 2008, 48). Splitting drawings has historically been undertaken by some collector-dealers to increase profit by selling multiples; for Mariette, however, this was rather a solution to the visual limitations of mounting double-sided drawings (De la Chapelle, 2015, 40). Unlike contemporaries who mounted drawings in albums, in which double-sided drawings could be set within windows cut out of pages and thereby viewed from both sides, Mariette’s practice of mounting overall to boards could not accommodate such windows. Some have suggested that Mariette even split papers to preserve their appearance, by preventing iron gall ink migration from one side to the other (Smentek, 2008, 50). By the 20th c., paper splitting had become Mulshine, ANAGPIC 2017, 2 common knowledge among restorers, and eventually, descriptions of the previously concealed process were published (Brückle and Dambrogio, 2000; Schweidler, 1938, 104-5).

  • Dirt in Pulp – Chart Method (Proposed Revision of T 213 Om-01)
    WI 050809.05 T 213 DRAFT NO. 2 DATE June 13, 2006 TAPPI WORKING GROUP CHAIRMAN JW Walkinshaw SUBJECT CATEGORY Pulp Properties RELATED METHODS See “Additional Information” CAUTION: This Test Method may include safety precautions which are believed to be appropriate at the time of publication of the method. The intent of these is to alert the user of the method to safety issues related to such use. The user is responsible for determining that the safety precautions are complete and are appropriate to their use of the method, and for ensuring that suitable safety practices have not changed since publication of the method. This method may require the use, disposal, or both, of chemicals which may present serious health hazards to humans. Procedures for the handling of such substances are set forth on Material Safety Data Sheets which must be developed by all manufacturers and importers of potentially hazardous chemicals and maintained by all distributors of potentially hazardous chemicals. Prior to the use of this method, the user must determine whether any of the chemicals to be used or disposed of are potentially hazardous and, if so, must follow strictly the procedures specified by both the manufacturer, as well as local, state, and federal authorities for safe use and disposal of these chemicals. Dirt in pulp – chart method (Proposed revision of T 213 om-01) (Lines in text or margins indicate changes since last draft) 1.

  • Correlations Between Fibre Properties and Paper Properties
    Correlations between fibre properties and paper properties Anna Johansson Mater thesis in Pulp Technology Abstract The understanding of what properties the fibre should have in order to give the right end-product paper properties, along with the type of processing, is a subject for a lot of research and development. Today the ability to measure fibre properties on-line is widely used for pulps. It is often necessary to measure many properties and variables in a process. The data collected is therefore almost always multivariate. It is very hard to analyse process data due to a lot of noises. Correlations between fibre and paper properties are hard to find, but this does not mean that correlations do not exist. Fibre properties, measured by the pulp analyser PulpEye, were investigated and correlations to paper properties were studied. The work was divided into three different studies. Study 1 was an investigation of historical process data, in study 2 pulp samples from the production was analysed and study 3 was a refiner setting trial, were different refiner segments, flows through refiners and intensities were studied. Both the group-plots and MVDA’s based on the historical process data in study 1, showed that the Scott Bond was increased with increased amount of kinks and curl for the unbleached pine pulp (softwood pulp). Coarseness measurements, made in the study of historical data, indicated that the coarseness was varying in such a large extent that it was believable that it had effects in the papermaking process. Another interesting fibre property, investigated in the refiner setting trial, was crill.
