  2. 1. Simulations of Evaporation Plants in Kraft Pulp Mills: Including Lignin Extraction and Use of Excess Heat

    Author : Marcus Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; kraft pulp mill.; lignin extraction; heat integration; process integration; energy saving; excess heat; simulation; Energy-efficient evaporation; modelling;

    Abstract : In this thesis, evaporation plants at kraft pulp mills are simulated with the purpose of making them more energy efficient. The work is important since energy saving is assumed to be one of the major solutions for handling the world's energy demand in the future. READ MORE

  4. 2. Displacement Washing in the Sulfate Pulp Mill

    Author : Gunnar Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metal ions; Kraft pulp; models; diffusion; filter cakes; sorption; temperature; lignin; fibers; washing; lime mud; chemical recovery; displacement; pulp washing;

    Abstract : Displacement washing is an operation in which it is possible to wash solid-phase particles with a minimum of water. In a sulfate pulp mill, the main application is the pulp washing, but lime mud washing also occurs in the chemical recovery. The washing consumes a great deal of water. READ MORE

  5. 3. Novel process integration opportunities in existing kraft pulp mills with low water consumtion

    Author : Cecilia Bengtsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; excess heat; evaporation; pinch technology; pulp and paper; energy; system consequences; process integration;

    Abstract : The economic opportunities for energy savings due to process integration of the evaporation plant have proven to be good in model mills with low water consumption. This is due to the fact that the temperature level of excess heat is higher compared with pulp mills with larger water consumption. READ MORE

  6. 4. Process Integration in Model Kraft Pulp Mills. Technical, Economic and Environmental Implications

    Author : Ulrika Wising; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pinch technology; system consequences; wastewater; energy; pulp and paper; excess heat; process integration; evaporation;

    Abstract : The technical and economic conditions for reducing the energy consumption cost-efficiently and thereby releasing a surplus of biomass fuel in the pulp and paper industry are changing. For example, new environmental restrictions increase the need for closed water loops and other system modifications, which can lead to increased opportunities for energy savings. READ MORE

  7. 5. Biofiltration of odorous gas emissions

    Author : Anneli Andersson-Chan; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Abstract : Biofiltration has shown its potential as an interesting treatment alternative for contaminated gas streams. Unlike conventional technologies, such as adsorption, scrubbers, and incineration, biofiltration offers effective pollution control at relatively low capital and operating costs, and without the generation of secondary pollution that may require subsequent treatment.
