1. Process modelling in pulp and paper manufacture : Application studies with aspects of energy efficiency and product quality
Sammanfattning : The manufacture of pulp and paper is an energy intensive process configured of several unit processes that shape a network of flows of wood chips, chemical pulp, mechanical pulp, board and other important components. Improved energy efficiency supports sustainability of the process and the products. LÄS MER
2. Beyond averages – some aspects of how to describe a heterogeneous material, mechanical pulp, on particle level
Sammanfattning : For a more profound understanding of how a process works, it is essential to have a relevant description of the material being processed. With this description, it will be easier to evaluate and control processes to produce more uniform products with the right properties. LÄS MER
3. Designing grinding tools to control and understand fibre release in groundwood pulping
Sammanfattning : Mechanical pulping is a very energy demanding process in which only a fraction of the energy is used for the actual separation of wood fibres. The rest of the energy is lost, partly in damaging already separated fibres and partly as heat during viscoelastic deformation of the wood. LÄS MER
4. Improved energy efficiency in mill scale production of mechanical pulp by increased wood softening and refining intensity
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the electric energy efficiency of single stage double disc refining for production of printing grade mechanical pulp from Norway spruce wood chips. The thesis is based on the hypothesis, that more energy efficiency refining can be attained by balanced increases of wood softening and refining intensity. LÄS MER
