In Japan. the percentage of recycled paper in paper manufacturing and the percentage of imported pulpwood in all pulpwood both exceeded 50% in 1989, and these figures never appear going down again. Around that time. Japanese pulp and paper companies began overseas industrial forest plantation projects, and approximately ten years have passed since then. At this moment, projects are found in eight countries with the total area reaching to 258, 000 ha at the end of 1998. In the past, they were relying upon the imported wood materials out of natural and artificial resources. But nowadays in order to reduce its dependency, most of our overseas industrial plantation projects have been commenced by targeting to import wood chips out of own plantation.
Meanwhile, an increasing number of electric power companies and automobile companies have begun to participate in overseas forestry projects after it was decided that the amount of CO
2sequestration by forests would be internationally recognized as an offset to greenhouse gas emission at COP 3 conference in Kyoto (1997).
Therefore, in order to promote further plantation it is required to get and to handle accurate information to settle many unsolved issues.

Pulping Technical Committee of J. TAPPI made questionnaires about 1998 operating data of kraft pulp mills in Japan. This paper was the second report of that questionnaires and the report about bleaching process, the manufacturing of bleaching chemicals and the treatment after bleaching (screening. cleaning, etc). There are 50 BKP lines (30mills) and 6 semi-bleaching KP lines in Japan. Only 4 lines (3mills) have not Oxygen delignification stage. There are 3 ECF bleaching lines and all of them are first-D sequence. Ozone is not used as pulp bleaching chemicals in Japan.
First bleaching stage of major BKP lines is C (23 lines) or C/D (24 lines. C/D=87/13). About 75% of alkaline extraction stage are reinforced by oxygen and/or hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide. 46 lines use hypochlorite and 11 lines use hydrogen peroxide and 21 lines use DnD as last stage and 1 line use xylanase as pre-bleaching stage. Average addition of chlorine and total available chlorine is 18.0kg /t and 29.3kg/t. Average kappa number of UKP is 11.4 (10.2, LUKP) and the brightness and the viscosity 85.8 and 15. 8 cp. Average COD discharge and effluent water from bleaching process is 15kg/t and 31m
3/t.

Development in cooking has been very rapid during the two latest decades. New cooking methods giving improved pulp quality and better bleachability are today available. Kvaerner Pulping has now further developed the continuous cooking process and we are now marketing a new system called Compact Cooking
TM. Mill results from Compact Cooking
TM will be discussed. Kvaerner Pulping has also developed a new oxygen delignification system called DUALOX
TM. Mill results from the first installation will be given.
Total Chlorinefree Bleaching (TCF) was a very hot issue especially in Scandinavia and Germanspeaking countries 6-7 year ago. The most exciting enthusiasm for TCF bleaching is today slowly changed to a more realistic and correct view on bleaching and its environmental impact. ECF bleaching sequences with low content of chlorine dioxide so called soft ECF are today recommended and installed in many mills. Results from such installations are discussed.
Total Effluentfree Bleaching (TEF) is still under development. There are today several mills which have tried different solutions for closing the bleach plant completely. So far nobody has succeeded completely. In the following the new modern Kvaerner Pulping fiberline will be described. The presentation will mainly focus on new Kvaerner Pulping developments.

Ozone bleaching technology was developed in early 90's and introduced to mills for implementing TCF bleaching during 90's. Today ozone bleaching is used as part of ECF bleaching sequences, for instance, at UPM Kymmene Wisaforest, Finland and Modo Paper Husum, Sweden. The ozone based ECF pulp is called as ECF-light and is appreciated in Europe. In using ozone bleaching for ECF bleach sequences, it has been seen, ozone is effective to save bleaching cost and to add side-benefits of reducing pitch problems. At Wisaforest, in the ozone based ECF bleach mill, some part of bleach effluent is recovered to implement semi-closed system.
Ahlstrom Machinery has developed an advanced unique ozone mixer, AMZ mixer, which is effective for selective ozone delignification, while mechanical damage to pulp is minimized. Further study on comparison between mill ozone systems with AMZ mixers and lab. ozone bleaching has indicated that mill ozone bleaching with AMZ mixer shows for better bleacheability at the same chemical charges. AMZ-MC ozone bleaching is today a fully proven technology.

Ozone bleaching has been applied in ECF and TCF bleaching sequences since the beginning of the 1990's. It has confirmed by actual data and laboratory tests that applying the ozone system in ECF sequence can save bleaching chemical costs and makes the plant with a very simple sequence without acid treatment or other treatment.
In this paper, a simple comparison between high consistency (HC) and medium consistency (MC) ozone system, advantages for HC ozone system, actual plants and HC ozone system application in ECF bleaching sequences will be discussed.
Especially. a discussion of a simple sequence of (Z (Eo)) DnD as a Light ECF sequence must be very interesting in view of its powerful effect, chemical savings, reducing effluent mount, pulp quality without having an additional acid treatment and chlorine dioxide stage.

Board machine for high capacity production are today limited by design. These well known limits are, e. g the following.
Multi-fourdrinier forming technology is state of art, however limits can be seen at higher speeds. Combination of several straight through roll presses brings about the drawback of the loss of bulk. Double-tier drying sections have the disadvantage of non restraint drying which leads to shrinkage effects such as roughness increase or MD tensile decrease at the web edges.
IHI-Voith Sulzer Paper Technology is constantly developing new and adapted machine concepts in respect to high output, high efficiency and high quality in order to overcome the above-mentioned limits.
This paper shows possible solutions in a combination of proven machinery elements which leads to a IHI-Voith Sulzer Paper Technology vision for future production plant with basis weight 160-400g/m
2, wire width≤10.5 m, operating speed 600-1, 000m/min and max. production≤3000 t/d.

Kenaf basts with brown and green epidermis (
Hibiscus cannabinis) were subjected to alkaline oxygen pulping to fill up a deficiency of softwood kraft pulp in future. Fifteen % NaOH of bast was necessary for the brown epidermis to decolorize during the pulping. However, the latter yielded crude pulp without colored epidermis by the pulping with 8-15% NaOH at 7kg/cm
2 and 110°C for 1h. The crude pulps with kappa numbers of 44-54 in yields of 67-78% based on bast gave oxygen pulps with kappa numbers of 21-31 in yields of 56-59% based on bast when refluxed with 50-70% aqueous AcOH for 1 h. The oxygen pulps were full-bleached by sequence of 5% Pa-1% P-1% Pa-1% P and so forth. Strength properties of the oxygen pulp and full-bleached pulp obtained from both of the bast were compared to the properties of unbleached and bleached kraft pulps of softwood.

Water retention of a coating color on base paper influences final properties of the coated paper and the blade coating operation. However, there is not any standard method to evaluate water retention of a coating color even though several have been suggested. We separated “Water Retention” into static water retention and dynamic water retention. Coating runnability was evaluated by the two kinds of water retention. Water loss rate at short dwell time influenced coating runnability under a blade. Binder in a coating color also penetrated into base paper with water when the coating color was applied. We measured water loss rate of actual coatings and dilute latex emulsions to evaluate a trend of binder penetration. Binder went through a membrane filter and penetrates into filter papers when water loss ratio was measured under pressure. This binder penetration was measured by ultraviolet absorption in refection. We suggested two new concepts “Total Latex Loss” and “Penetrating Latex Loss”, both calculated from these signals and the depth of latex penetration. Binder penetration, high shear rate viscosity and water loss rate should be combined well to have a good coating runnability and to produce high quality papers.
In this study, the effects of blade response and binder penetration on the latex concentration of coated paper surfaces were investigated. The blade response depended on water retention and high shear rate viscosity. The binder penetration depends on water loss ratio, total latex loss, and penetrating latex loss. Our results showed that latex concentration of coated paper surface depended on blade response and the type of binder penetration.

A formulation of the anisotropic elastic deformation was performed for the single wall corrugated fiberboard (SWCF) under the uniform tensile load. From this formulation the anisotropic longitudinal elastic modulus was determined for SWCF induced by elastic moduli of anisotropic element materials, and the validity of the formulation was guranteed by experimental results under the tensile deformation. Farther the anisotropic character for the modulus was elucidated.
The deformation of SWCF obtained from the formulation shows the remarkable anisotropy. The anisotropy of SWCF increases with increase of the wavelength for semichemical corrugating medium (SCM), and decreases with increases of the thickness and the waveheight of SCM.
