    Dirt in the material of paper has been measured by checking dirt in the sample sheet that is made only for checking dirt.
    By this way, the feedback timing is very late and also, it is very troublesome to make sample sheet, out of process.
    Dirt Counter solved these problems by checking dirt directly in the slurry on the process. It is quite effective and convenient equipment, not only for DIP, but also for general KP.

    We have been developing and selling polymer rolls for various calender machines (SC, SNC and On machine multi-nip calender) from 1987. We faced many problems from start such as “heat spots”, “crack propagations”, “abrasion”, “delaminations” and so on. For the counter-measure we improved both of cover materials and the adhesive strength, and decreased the inner stress of roll-covers fixed on steel cores.
    On this paper we report the outline of the improvement and it's results.

    Since NO. 7 PM (Paper Machine) of Hachinohe Mill, Mitsubishi Paper Mills Ltd. began production in 1997, many kinds of paper products have been manufactured. Especially, woodfree light weight coated paper has such a good quality that the production of woodfree light weight coated paper is dramatically increasing. While we tried to speed up NO. 7 PM in order to increase the production, we got a serious problem (release problem) which occurred at the release point of coated paper from the Symsizer® application roll. The release problem caused the unevenness of coated layer and prevented to increase the machine speed.
    At last we decided to install “MJ Turn Bar®” to NO. 7 PM in order to improve the problem. Then it was already introduced on October 2003 and it's been working well. “MJ Turn Bar®” could make web releasing stability at the release point from the application roll and enable us to increase the machine speed.
    In this paper we report about our operating experience of “MJ Turn Bar®” that enabled us not only to keep the quality of woodfree light weight coated paper but also to increase the productivity.

    Recently, plastic films have been widely applied to manufacture “communication paper”, such as direct thermal films (or paper) and dye diffusion thermal transfer sheets. In these applications, the biaxially drawn films are used, and their molecular chain orientation causes “curl phenomena”, particularly in laminated films.
    We found that the curl-value (ΔK) of plastic films clearly related to the difference of the thermal expansion coefficients of each ply in laminated films, and the thermal expansion coefficient could be predicted by measuring the degree of molecular chain orientation (MOR-value) determined by the transmitted microwave intensity method.
    Based on these findings, we propose that quantitative curl prediction is possible by employing an approximate formula derived from the lamination theory.

    “Oper”, which is a waterproof laminated paper, has been made by Nippon Paper Industries since 1988. “Oper” maintains the same characteristics as general papers, like “softness”, “printability”, “convertibility”. Now it is widely used in a commercial printing business and in a converted paper business.
    At the early stage of development, “Oper” had some problems in quality, which were caused by the effect of roughness and moisture of base paper onto the surface morphology of laminate layers. We report here how we coped with these problems.
    We also report the development of our new products, “The Poster”, and “Oper MDP”. “The Poster”, which is the product mainly used for posters, has improved ink drying property which was the strongly required property by a market. And “Oper MDP” was developed for full-color laser beam printer, which is one of the on—demand printing field which is remarkable growth field in recent years.
    And we introduce our latest consideration to the environment.

  • Paper Pulp Raw Material Supply in The Future
    —Research on Improvement of Production and Quality of Wood Biomass—

    The supply of raw materials is a business base of the paper manufacture industry. It is necessary to aim at a production increase and a qualitative improvement of the wood biomass by the expansion of the afforestation area in the stable supply of the raw materials. Securing a suitable afforestation area will be expected to become difficult by the competition with the farmland acquisition that originates in the food problem. As a result, afforestation in a very bad environment with various environmental stresses is not avoided.
    Oji Paper succeeded in the creation of an environmental stress resistant eucalyptus by using our original genetically modified technology. In addition, the genetic information database of the eucalyptus was as also constructed for the improving of the wood biomass. The wood formation mechanism of the eucalyptus is clarified, and it will aim at practical use for efficient production of the wood biomasses along with the stress tolerance in the future.
    As a result, stable production of the wood biomasses becomes possible, and use as the recyclable resource for the wood biomass not to mention the paper pulp raw material to replace the fossil resource such as oil can be accelerated. In addition, it is expected that large-scale afforestation of the eucalyptus that has high carbon dioxide fixation ability becomes possible, and it contributes to the carbon dioxide absorption for the global warming prevention greatly.

    Since paper sludge (PS) generated in paper manufacturing has high water content and low calorific value, its utilization as heat source is not popular. On the other hand, waste tire is utilized partly only because reuse is restricted by particular application due to difficulty in treatment of wire contained in tire. Recently, treatment of waste tire becomes an issue of waste materials.
    Incineration PS together with waste tire, but without auxiliary fuel (fossil fuel) support, has been satisfied. The incineration boiler can produce high temperature and high-pressure steam, and generate electric power of 14,000 kW in stable operation. Thus it contributes to resource and energy conservations, reduction of wastes and consequently utilization of wastes.
    The incineration boiler was put in commercial operation since October 2003. Experience and establishment of the plant operation with regard to reduction of dioxin emission controlled by combustion temperature, turbine load control performed remarkably in the waste incineration boiler and maintaining the plant in stable and safe operation are described.

    In the process of Kraft Chemical Recovery Cycle, Chloride (CL) and Potassium (K) entering with raw-material wood chip are gradually accumulated and concentrated during continuous operation. The plugging issue of carryover particles and dust in the Recovery Boiler is caused by decreasing melting temperature of dust along with increasing concentration of CL and K in the Black Liquor.
    At the same time, fouling and corrosion at the super heater of Recovery Boiler is apprehended. To avoid above problem, proper portion of recovered Electrical Precipitator Ash was deserted from recovery cycle. In this manuscript, actual operation data from CL&K Removal System using Ion-exchange Resin developed and installed at Niigata Mill are introduced.

    This paper describes the modifications incorporated in the information system for the existing paper roll handling process. In order to share production, marketing and inventory information between the headquarters and each domestic mill, the paper roll tracking system was replaced in Kushiro Mill. Since the previous system lacked memory, communication bandwidth and expansion capacity, new PC system was introduced. It has successfully consolidated various products information into single database. The next phase which is to expand this service to each department by constructing company-wide LAN, has been introduced for two years, and promotes the new system capability to the headquarters.
