JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe paper machine can be considered as a series of manufacturing units, each performing a discrete function as the sheet passes through it The principal units are the head box, forming section, press section, dryers and calender stack. Despite the contribution that each of these units makes to production and quality, very little is either measured or controlled between the forming section and express, especially when one considers that the majority of the sheet's characteristics are born in this part of the process. For example. nearly half the water within the sheet is mechanically removed between these two points, with virtually no process visibility available to optimize this part of manufacture. In addition there are no measurements to help describe the condition of the forming fabrics, press felts and transport belts involved in the de-watering process. Yet most modern paper machines will change the press felts every fifteen to thirty days as their age and efficiency reduces productivity and quality. There is a clear requirement and justification to do two things; first to examine the sheet at the express position and secondly to use the information to improve quality of the sheet and run-ability of the machine through its pressing operations.View full abstractDownload PDF (3173K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSDeposition of pitch or fine fiber on the press rolls causes defects in the sheet, sheet breaks and fiber rising. Especially for high speed PMs (more than 1, 200mpm), sheet release from the rolls is not only limiting their speed but also giving strong impact to paper quality.
Cationic polymer has been generally used to keep the roll surface clean, however, those program are not able to reduce draw and fiber rising effectively. Our technology, a continuous application of chemical additives (Wax based emulsion, On PressTM) directly onto press rolls treats surface and establishes a protective coating that prevents deposit buildup.
In addition to preventing deposition and linting on the press rolls, this new technology enables mills to increase PM speed and/or improve paper quality. In this report, basic mechanism of the roll release is explained and case histories to various grades paper M/C are presented.View full abstractDownload PDF (1892K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThere are bearings requiring to be lubricated in many points of the Paper-Making Machine system and various way of lubricating has been thought out and come to as present since Sairin built the model of current paper machine in Later Han dynasty.
As main ways of lubricating, there are manually-filling lubrication, dropping lubrication, soaking lubrication, ring lubrication, gravitation lubricating, splashing lubrication, jet lubrication, circulating lubrication, and grease lubrication, etc using lubricant such as mineral lubricating oil, fat lubricating oil, mixed lubricating oil, and grease. etc.
In this article. I would like to mention the problems and solution concerning the circulating lubrication control using the mineral lubricating oil, which is often used in the Paper-Making Machine. And I hope it will be of any help to release you from the bothering matters on daily lubricating control.View full abstractDownload PDF (1241K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSContamination has been long recognized as the main source of failure to systems including pulp and paper making machines. Many researches has been conducted and concluded that the contamination control is the most effective means of preventing system malfunction. Unfortunately, the potential benefits are not being fully realized as often a ‘fix’ is implemented without considering other factors in the process.
This paper explains the practice of Total Cleanliness Control (TCC) which involves a systematic and complete approach to the subject of fluid system cleanliness. The implementation of this practice by component producers, system builders and operators alike will enable them to realize the benefits and the subsequent contribution to the profitability of the company.View full abstractDownload PDF (3001K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSHigh ply bond strength is required in combination board. Some kinds of starches are used as ply bond strength agents in spraying their suspension to the combined plies. Starchsuspension, without cooking, is sprayed, and the particles of starch are gelatinized in the drying process, large ply bond is occurred. But there are some problems such as putrefaction in using starches. Recently, synthesized ply bond strength agents have been used, for example poly acrylic amide type (PAM). Our company developed cationic dispersion PAM as retention aids and drainage aids for the first time in the world. Furthermore, we have developed anionic dispersion PAM, “Himoloc MJ-450”, as ply bond strength agent.“MJ-450” has great performance in small dosage because of its large particle size. The particle size of “MJ-450” is much the same as it of starches, and larger than it of the existing PAM. In this issue, we discuss the differences in the fixing mechanism of particles onto the ply between starches, existing PAM, and “MJ-450”.View full abstractDownload PDF (1966K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTen years ago most papermakers were convinced that a system needs to be voluminous and heavy for controllability and stability. In order to improve grade changing dynamics. the author of this paper began developing a compact papermachine wet end. The results have proven that compactness is beneficial even more broadly. Quoting Voith “the trend is now the opposite-he systematic collecting and direct feeding of the individual water flows back into the system”. In its gas-less form this is actually covered by a POM Technology patent.View full abstractDownload PDF (2438K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAlmost unknown 25 years ago, ground calcium carbonate is today the most used coating pigmentworld-wide in several applications.
Significant technical and economical benefits like high brightness, lower binder demand, excellentcoater runnability and improved off-set printability are well known to the Industry.
In a number of applications however, conventional GCC pigments have the limitation of lower hidingpower and reduced opacity. Therefore it is common practice to add opacifying pigments to the coatingcolor for reaching the required opacity.
The theories of light scattering on small particle can be used to explain this phenomenon. Pigmentswith the high brightness, broad particle size distribution and fine particle size of the GCC's presentlyused are not optimal for opacity.
We have focused on particle size and particle size distribution to design a GCC pigment for improvedopacity. We realised that a narrow particle size distribution (steep curve) would optimise opacitybut at the same time many of the advantages of the present pigments would be reduced. Therewould be significant negative influence on coater runnability, binder demand and solids content of thecoatings using the “ideal opacifying GCC”.
Therefore a compromise was decided upon by which, as much as possible, the present advantagesof GCC would be retained in the new pigment, while particle size distribution and average particle sizewould be shifted towards that of the ideal opacifying pigment.
The manufacture of this pigment is possible by use of a modified grinding technology.The presentation describes the new coating pigment and gives a number of examples where conventional GCC pigments were substituted by the new type.View full abstractDownload PDF (1960K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAlthough environmental problems have been a major concern for a number of years, it is only comparativelyrecently that many companies have deemed it a matter of course to make an appropriate responseto environmental problems.
Since its foundation in 1916, Nippon Kayaku has enthusiastically promoted such causes throughoutits 80-year history, using as its basic philosophy the following dual concepts. The company believes increating products that will benefit mankind and contribute to an improvement in global living standards, paying particular attention to the effect on health. Secondly, the company promises to respectthe environment and to guarantee the quality as well as the safety of its products.
The paper industry was particularly prompt in dealing with environmental issues. There has beena considerable expansion in the use of fluorescent whiteners as well as colorful dyestuffs in general. NipponKayaku has been able to supply such dyestuffs to meet the expectations of the paper industry andhas introduced a new recyclable series of dyestuffs with excellent decoloration properties. Additionally, a new series of liquid fluorescent whiteners requiring only water as their solvent has been put on themarket. It is also necessary to speak of the positive effect that removing the luminosity from bleached paper by means of fluorescence-removing agents has on the environment.View full abstractDownload PDF (1677K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSCedar (Cryptomeria japonica) is the most abundant softwood species in Japan and has been used for construction materials, furniture, barrels, shoes and so forth. However it was regarded unsuitable for mechanical pulping as it contains relatively large amount of lignin and extractives compared with other softwood species such as spruce, hemlock and radiata pine. We tried several thermomechanical processes by the laboratory refiner. changing chemical pretreament and refining temperature. It was found that Cedar CTMP (chemithermomechanical pulp) had the high light scattering coefficient and brightness. and was suitable to produce printing grade papers.View full abstractDownload PDF (3263K) -
Daily Change of Chemical Composition of PS and the Aptitude for Zeolite SynthesisTakao Ando, Masato Saito, Shigeo Muramatsu, Kimio Hiyoshi, Junsuke Har ...2003 Volume 57 Issue 11 Pages 1662-1671,018

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSWe have been investigating zeolite synthesis from paper sludge (PS) ashes. This technique is essential from the viewpoint of recycling of wasting materials.
In our previous study, the PS ashes from 20 paper mills in Fuji area of Shizuoka Pref. were examined on suitability for starting materials in the zeolite synthesis, and they were classified into 4 types of compositional ranges in terms of talc-kaolinite-calcite composition ; that is, ranges (A) and (B) were suitable for the zeolite synthesis and ranges (C) and (D) were not suitable.
In this study, we selected representative 4 mills that had discharged PS corresponding to the above 4 types of compositional ranges, and the chemical and mineralogical compositions of PS from these 4 mills were analyzed for 5 days. As a result, the following conclusions were obtained.
The PS samples from the mills that had initially discharged PS belonged in the ranges (A) and (B) did not change into the ranges (C) and (D) for the period of 5 days. The samples belonged in (A) and (B) showed again being suitable for the zeolite synthesis.
PS discharged from a paper mill that makes products including a lot of kaolinite is suitable for the zeolite synthesis. However. PS containing too much calcite is not suitable.View full abstractDownload PDF (2927K) -
