    A Dynamic Na/S Balance of a Kraft Pulp Mill

    A dynamic Na/S balance of a kraft pulp mill Modeling and simulation of a kraft pulp mill using WinGEMS En dynamisk Na/S balans av ett sulfatbruk Modellering och simulering av ett sulfatbruk i WinGEMS Per Andersson Faculty of Health, Science and Technology Department of Engineering and Chemical Science, Chemical Engineering, Karlstad University Master theisis, 30 credits Supervisors: Niklas Kvarnström (KAU), Maria Björk (Stora Enso), Rickard Wadsborn (Stora Enso) Examinat or: Lars Järnström (KAU) 2014 -01-08 Version : 2.0 Abstract The main scope of this thesis was to create a simulation model of a kraft pulp mill and produce a dynamic Na/S balance. The model was made in WinGEMS 5.3 and the method consisted of implementing a static Na/S balance from the mill and created a model that described this chemical balance. Input data from the mill was collected and implemented in the model. A number of different cases were simulated to predict the effects of different process changes over time, dynamic balances. The result from the static balance showed that the model can describes the mill case. The result from the dynamic simulation showed that the model can be used to predict the effect of process changes over shorter periods of time. Executive Summary In the kraft mill the chemical balance is of interest to minimize the production cost. Normally there is an excess of sulfur and low levels of sodium, compared to what the process requires. In the future, the pulp mill will most likely produce other products than just pulp. These new production processes will also most likely affect the sodium and sulfur balance and there is a need to be able to predict this change.
  • Odorless Pulp Mill in Operation

    Odorless Pulp Mill in Operation

    Published May 26, 2017 Odorless Pulp Mill Odorless pulp mill in successful operation Executive Summary The sulphur in the cooking process can result in bad odor in the surroundings of a Kraft pulp mill. Together with the odor, sulphur compounds can also be an environmental problem since they are released to the atmosphere. Although emissions are becoming lower as mills are upgraded, odors have continued to be a problem for people living close to the mills, because of the very low odor threshold of sulphur compounds. Valmet has delivered a unique, practically odorless mill to CMPC Riograndese Ltda in Guaíba, Brazil. The design guidelines were to not vent odorous gases and to aim for zero smells. The gas handling system collects and controls odors from more than 100 sources and all process areas are included. Incineration of non-condensable gases is ensured through multiple, simultaneously available incineration locations. According to CMPC it can be said that the system availability is practically 100% and there is always a system ready to handle NCG and prevent gases from being emitted to the atmosphere. This paper describes the emphasis CMPC placed in the concept of the odorless mill in Guaíba and its surroundings and outlines the chosen technical solutions to achieve this target. The paper emphasizes the necessity of ensuring that odorous gases are treated also in shutdown and emergency situations, and explains how this has been achieved at the mill. © Valmet Page | 1 Published May 26, 2017 Odorless Pulp Mill Background No venting of odorous gases and a "zero smell" pulp mill.

The Department of Silviculture at the Swedish University of Agriculture Sciences has planned the study in co-operation with the National Agriculture and Forestry Research Institute (NAFRI) in Lao PDR with the objective to describe the silviculture practise in teak plantations established by small-scale farmers. Besides bio- physical aspects, tenure and market prospects both for plantations as well as for the wood have been discussed. Acknowledgement This study was funded by Sida (Swedish International Development Agency) as an MFS (Minor Field study). The MFS was hosted by the Lao-Swedish Upland Agriculture and Forestry Research Programme (LSUAFRP) which is a programme financed by Sida and run by the National Agriculture and Forestry Research Institute of Lao PDR (NAFRI) and Scandia consult Natura (SCC). The MFS took in place in Lao PDR in August and September 2003 and was written in Sweden later that year.

Weichelt certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: A HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF THE PAPER INDUSTRY IN THE WISCONSIN RIVER VALLEY ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. James R. Shortridge Date approved: April 18, 2016 ii Abstract The paper industry, which has played a vital social, economic, and cultural role throughout the Wisconsin River valley, has been under pressure in recent decades. Technology has lowered demand for paper and Asian producers are now competing with North American mills. As a result, many mills throughout the valley have been closed or purchased by nonlocal corporations. Such economic disruption is not new to this region. Indeed, paper manufacture itself emerged when local businessmen diversified their investments following the decline of the timber industry. New technology in the late nineteenth century enabled paper to be made from wood pulp, rather than rags. The area’s scrub trees, bypassed by earlier loggers, produced quality pulp, and the river provided a reliable power source for new factories. By the early decades of the twentieth century, a chain of paper mills dotted the banks of the Wisconsin River.

    PEER-REVIEWED ARTICLE bioresources.com The Influence of Different Types of Bisulfite Cooking Liquors on Pine Wood Components Raghu Deshpande,a,* Lars Sundvall,b Hans Grundberg,c and Ulf Germgård a In this laboratory study, the initial phase of a single-stage sodium bisulfite cook was observed and analyzed. The experiments were carried out using either a lab- or a mill-prepared cooking acid, and the cooking temperature used in these experiments was 154 °C. Investigated parameters were the chemical consumption, the pH profile, and the pulp yield with respect to cellulose, lignin, glucomannan, xylan, and finally extractives. Cooking was extended down to approximately 60% pulp yield and the pulp composition during the cook, with respect to carbohydrates and lignin, was summarized in a kinetic model. The mill-prepared cooking acid had a higher COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) and TOC (Total Organic Carbon) content than the lab-prepared cooking acid and this influenced the pH and the formation of thiosulfate during the cook. It was found that the presence of dissolved carbohydrates and lignin in the bisulfite cooking liquor affected the extractives removal and the thiosulfate formation.

C. Tilgman in 1866-1867, using calcium as the base to manufacture paper pulp from wood (Rydholm 1965; Sixta 2006). The first sulfite mill was started in Bergvik, Sweden in 1874, using magnesium as the base (Sjöström 1993).
