    Optimal steam allocation which reduces the total cost of steam generation and purchased electrical power to a minimum, is achieved by the complex strategy of Linear Programing. This computer control system was applied to six turbine generators in Ishinomaki Mill of Jujo Paper Co., Ltd. in 1981. Since then it has provided a lot of energy saving in satisfactory operation.

    The pulp and paper industry is a highly energy-intensive industry in Japan consuming huge amount of energy next to steel and cement industries.
    One of the major challenges facing our industry is to raise the self-supplying ratio of its energy consumption, which can be achieved, among others, by utilizing paper sludge effectively as fuel after dewatering it to higher dryness.
    Starting from August, 1982, the Ashigara plant of Meiji Seika Kaisha, Ltd. succeeded in dewatering the sludge generated in the plant (e. g. from the activated sludge process waste water treatment facilities) to a high dryness, and burning it in a multiple hearth incinerator without the aid of fuel oil.... contributing greatly to the reduction in energy consumption.
    The intensive dewatering system of sludge employed by the plant features in (i) pelletizing the sludge from the primary dewatering stage, and (ii) mixing the pellets with the furnace ash, product of the preceding cycle, and (iii) squeezing them by a hydraulic press.
    It is a noteworthy technique in that it has achieved a dryness level that was considered economically prohibitive.

    Effects of variations in toughness on the service strength of heavy duty paper sack were investigated, assuming that distribution of toughness values of paper is Gaussian and energy distribution f (E) dissipated for failure of paper sack at drop test is expressed with the formula f (E) =1/be-E/b
    Correlation between service strength of paper sack and (x2/2b) -value of toughness of paper was slightly higher than only average value x of toughness, where σ is standard deviation of toughness of paper. However, the influence of variations on the correlation was generally little.
    It was considered that effects of variations in toughness of paper on the service strength of paper sack did not appear so clearly under variations in conditions of each drop and in environment such as humidity at drop test or in making paper sack.
    The b-values in the equation were associated with the average energy dissipated for failure of paper sack and they were found to be 1.01, 0.74 and 0.51 for butt drop, overturn drop and face drop tests, respectively. This means that butt drop is the most severe and face drop is mild for paper sack at drop test.

    If either the pKa value of a phenolic compound in the extractives becomes lower or its HLB value higher, as is generally expected, there is a tendency to decrease in its residual amounts in sulfate pulps by being surrounded by the neutral carrier and therefore, protected from alkaline attack. Direct comparison of the speck areas appeared in pulps as a result of aggregation of phenolic molecules dose not seem to give a clear-cut relation among speck area, pKa, and HLB value. However, this is realized by comparing the speck areas S based on a certain amount of residual phenol, R i. e. S/R ratio as shown in Figure 5 and 6. The lower the pKa value of a phenol and also the higher the HLB value of it, the greater ability for aggregation of the phenolic molecules is observed.
    A sterochemical environment around the phenolic hydroxyl group was shown to be an additional and important factor for aggregation, and the greater steric hindrance of a phenol could afford less speck area. The reason for giving no speck area in the case of ferruginol and its derivatives, differently from other phenols, may be ascribed to great contribution of the steric hindrance in addition to the relatively low HLB value. Hydrogen bond formation through 12-hydroxyl group to afford an aggregate is prevented firstly from neighbouring 13-isoprophyl group and secondly from interaction between 11-H and 1β-H. Colored substances produced by the treatment of ferruginol with chlorine dioxide, therforfore, do not give any visible speck but disperse uniformly in bleached pulps to lower the brightness.

  • Delignification Rate Studies

    It is known that the kraft cook can be separated into three stages; initial phase, bulk delignification phase and final phase. A chemical reaction is a rate-determining step for delignification under the condition in which the chip thickness is below certain value, except in the initial phase. Delignification rate in the two stages, bulk delignification phase and final phase, was studied.
    Assuming that the delignification is reversible reaction, it was found that the delignification rate in the two stages, bulk delignification phase and final phase, could be expressed as a single kinetic equation. In addition, the effect of reaction temperature and concentration of cooking chemicals on the delignification rate was revealed quantitatively. The rate equation, which was established in the previous report for effective alkali consumption by wood components, was applied to the kinetic equation of delignification in order to determine the numerical solution. These numerical solutions fit to the experimental results successfully. While this method involves some assumption, it is useful to describe the delignification rate quantitatively under the condition of timevarying liquor concentration.
