Non-process elements are present in all kraft
recovery systems. Non-process elements are defined as
those elements which are not essential to the chemical
process, i.e., are neither active pulping chemicals (e.g.,
Na ...
Production of dry particles made of titanium dioxide powder and black liquor is
the first step in a newly proposed black liquor treatment process (Frederick et. al., 1992).
This work investigates the granulation proces ...
This work is part of a larger project dealing with
nonprocess element (NPE) behaviour in chemical pulping
processes. Nonprocess elements are defined as those
elements which are not essential to the chemical
process, ...
Most metal ions have negative impacts on pulp mill operations. The
concentrations of metal ions on pulp fibers and in washwaters rise significantly with
increased wastewater recycling. The development of technology to ...
Douglas-fir wood chips from Oregon were pulped with kraft
green liquor to produce semi-chemical pulps with properties suitable
for the manufacture of corrugating medium. The effects of five cooking
variables were stud ...
Several additives have been used in research and on an
industrial scale to improve the pulp yield and to increase
the rate of delignification. One such additive is 1,4-
dihydro- 9,10-dihydroxyanthracene (DDA), also ca ...
