  1. 1. Mechanical Pulp. Effects of Pretreatment and Wood Source on Fiber Separation and Pulp Properties

    Author : Lars Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; torsional stress; pulp properties; chips; impregnation; screw press; SEM; mechanical pulp; sulfonation; shear stress; fracture surface; wood quality; temperature;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis concerns the mechanical pulping process and the effects of wood source and pretreatment conditions on the pulp properties. In the first part, the deformation of Norway spruce (Picea abies) wood samples was investigated under shear and torsional loading at different temperatures (20-95°C) and sulfonation conditions.

  2. 2. Mass Transport in Wood Disintegration: Implications for the Pulp and Paper Industry

    Author : Roujin Ghaffari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mass transport; specific ion effects; impregnation; Kraft pulping; ionoSolv; ionic liquids; delignification;

    Abstract : Efficient delignification and fractionation processes are essential in the pulp and paper industry. Mass transport events in wood fractionation are of great importance, specifically in two main stages, namely, the mass transport of chemicals into wood and the mass transport of degraded lignin molecules out of cellulose confinements.

  3. 3. Through air drying : Thermographic studies of drying rates, drying non-uniformity and infrared assisted drying

    Author : Aron Tysén; Lars Nilsson; Shri Ramaswamy; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Through air drying; TAD; Drying; Dewatering; Water removal; Infrared drying; Non-uniformity; Variability; Formation; Thermography; Tissue; Fabric; Wire; Pulp; Grammage; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : The removal of water is an integral part of papermaking. The drying process is responsible for a great share of the energy used in the paper machine. Premium grade tissue products are dried by through air drying. Large volumes of natural gas are burned to heat the air drawn through the paper web to achieve the drying. READ MORE

  4. 4. Image-based quantitative infrared analysis and microparticle characterisation for pulp and paper applications

    Author : Kari Hyll; Lars Mattsson; Hannes Vomhoff; Samuel Schabel; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Metrology; stock; papermaking; refining; fibrillation; fines; filler; morphology; classification; flow microscopy; fibre analyser; flow cytometry; laser diffraction; dynamic image analysis; process variation; thermography; emittance; emissivity; infrared; MWIR; LWIR; goniometer; Production Engineering; Industriell produktion; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Measurements of process variations and particle morphology are widely employed in the pulp and paper industry. Two techniques with high potential, infrared thermography and microparticle characterisation, are mainly used qualitatively. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigating structural changes of cellulose using NMR spectroscopy

    Author : Alexander Idström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; crystallinity index; NCC; ionic liquids; CP MAS 13C-NMR; hornification; native cellulose; regenerated cellulose; NMR cryoporometry; pulp; Solid-state NMR;

    Abstract : In this thesis solid-state NMR and NMR cryoporometry were used to gain information of the structure of cellulose. Measurements were conducted on both native and regenerated cellulose, exposed to a range of different treatments. READ MORE
