  1. 1. On the wood chipping process : a study on basic mechanisms in order to optimize chip properties for pulping

    Author : Lisbeth Hellström; Torbjörn Carlberg; Per Engstrand; Sören Östlund; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood chipping; Chip formation; Digital Speckle Photography; Friction; Fracture Processes; Analytical model; Laboratory Wood Chipper; Force Measurement; Vibration Synthesis; Energy Efficiency; Chip Damage; TMP; CTMP; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Abstract : In both the chemical and mechanical pulping process, the logs are cut into wood chips by a disc chipper before fibre separation. To make the wood chipping process more efficient, one have to investigate in detail the coupling between process parameters and the quality of the chips. READ MORE

  2. 2. Methods for Creating and Exploiting Data Locality

    Author : Dan Wallin; Erik Hagersten; Sverker Holmgren; David Wood; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; data locality; temporal locality; spatial locality; prefetching; cache; cache behavior; cache coherence; snooping protocols; partial differential equation; shared-memory multiprocessor; chip multiprocessor; simulation; Computer engineering; Datorteknik;

    Abstract : The gap between processor speed and memory latency has led to the use of caches in the memory systems of modern computers. Programs must use the caches efficiently and exploit data locality for maximum performance. READ MORE

  3. 3. Wood chips for kraft and sulfite pulping : evaluation of novel forest-industrial drum-chipping technology

    Author : Jessica Gard Timmerfors; Leif J. Jönsson; David Blomberg; Sören Östlund; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood chip; drum chipper; impregnation; pulping; sulfite process; kraft process; Scots pine; Norway spruce; heartwood; frozen wood; moisture content;

    Abstract : Wood chipping and the supply of high-quality wood chips are of critical importance for most forest-industrial processes. The quality of wood chips affects product yield, product quality, and processability. READ MORE

  4. 4. Reduction of refining energy during mechanical pulping : using pressurised chip compression and sulphite pre-treatment

    Author : Erik Nelsson; Geoffrey Daniel; Mittuniversitetet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Chip pre-treatment; double disc refiner; energy efficiency; Impressafiner; low dosage; Norway spruce; refining intensity; single disc refiner; sulphite pre-treatment; thermomechanical pulp;

    Abstract : The effects of pressurised compressive chip pre-treatment and low dosage sulphite pre-treatment were evaluated for production of thermomechanical pulp in mill scale trials using Norway spruce (Picea abies) at the Braviken paper mill (Holmen Paper AB, Sweden). The general aim of the study was to improve the energy efficiency during the production of mechanical pulps suitable for news and improved news grade papers. READ MORE
