    With recent rise of market demand for environmental protection and saving resources, Nippon Paper Industries Iwanuma Mill has set up an environmental action plan concerning “the achievement of sustainable society.”
    This mill produces 55,000t of paper mainly newsprint per month based on this environmental action plan. Our newsprint contains kraft pulp, recycled pulp, and mechanical pulp as main materials resulting 75% or more of recycled pulp, 5-10% of kraft pulp (NBKP), and the remaining is mechanical pulp which is produced on site as RGP (Refining-GroundWood-Pulp).
    Mechanical pulp, such as RGP, is pulp which needs an enormous amount of electric power as a feature of its production. However, power consumption was greatly reduced through repeated reconstructions, including stock flow change and introduction of new equipment.
    This report describes a series of energy-saving examples achieved by reconstruction of RGP process.

    In the process of Kraft Chemical Recovery Cycle, Chlorine (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. We have investigated conventional crystallizing method system, however, this system is required to operate large sized freezing machine and spend huge amount of electrical energy. Therefore, we have developed new method expected lower energy consumption.
    In this manuscript, actual operation data from Cl&K Removal System using Ion-exchange Resin developed and installed at Niigata Mill are introduced. As the result of operation, plugging issue at the tube of the Super-heater was excellently decreased and large amount of steam reduction for the Sootblower have been confirmed.

    Our Fuji-Plant is located in Fuji-City, the central part of Japan, near Mt. Fuji on the north side, near Suruga Bay on the south side. Our Plant is also a main production factory which has two sets of NO. 8 · 10 M/C and is a large-scale factory with the quantity of production representing Japan.
    In addition, we have a fluidized-bed type garbage incineration plant for the waste generated at a materials process which capability is BD 40 t/day (includes waste heat boiler with max flow rate 5.7 t/h). Steam from the waste heat boiler had been controlled at constant pressure (1.75 Mpa) by the valve in drum to be used for dry process of M/C line. This time we tried to improve to save energy by another method. There we observed the electricity to look into the fan motor which needs much energy in some facilities.
    We present a new method as below of more effective use for steam that 2 steam turbines are installed and connected to the FDF (110 kW-2P) motor and IDF (90 kW-4P) motor to assist the power. It brought the good effects to save energy.
    This system has very superior points in that we can use the rest of steam effectively and can save big energy under rated condition. In addition, it also has the characteristics of easy maintenance and easy start-up.
    Now although the capability of 100% cannot be demonstrated from short of rated steam condition, we will be able to save the energy for the amount of electric power 130 kW/h equal to 10,000,000 yen if the combustion of an incinerator would be stabilized, the amount of steam would be secured and could be run during a year.
    We are willing to try more to save energy in the near future because the increase of the energy cost gives the large influence to the factory profit.
    We would like to improve factory employee's consciousness further in the future and to promote the energy-saving activities.

    Several years have passed since the Rotary Press Filter was first introduced to Japan and Tomoe Engineering started its production and sales, and its high dewaterability has been proved through test data of various materials. Further, the Rotary Press Filter has features superior to other dewatering machines such as simple structure, space saving, low power and less washing water requirement, besides dewaterability. Number of installation of the Rotary Press Filter is increasing year by year and we have installed 5 units for papermaking wastewater and 27 units for other kinds of applications in Japan. We expect its number will increase further.
    In this report I will introduce a result of research made for about a month on the treatment capacity of the Rotary Press Filter in operation at papermaking company “A.” I will also introduce a result of research on changes of the feed sludge condition and cake moisture for two days during the one-month research period. This is the first time to release the dewatering data of papermaking wastewater sludge obtained at the actual facilities.

    SAQ® has been used as a cooking additive in many KP mills. This process is known as “Quinone Cooking”. In order to apply SAQ to recent modified cooking process, more effective condition for SAQ is investigated. The following results have become clear with the small digester developed by KKC in which addition and extraction of cooking liquors are possible.
    1) SAQ's effect in each combination of penetrating conditions (alkali concentration, temperature, and time) was observed as the same as in conventional one (non-separating liquors). Also SAQ will possibly be more effective than in conventional process under some combinations of the penetrating conditions.
    2) SAQ penetrated enough into chip even at low temperature and short time. Most amount of SAQ remained in chip after black liquor was extracted from the digester. But dispersed anthraquinone was extracted more than SAQ into black liquor.

    Kenaf bast fiber was treated successively by ammonium oxalate, sodium hydroxide and sodium chlorite at different order and conditions in three methods, A, B and C (Table 1). The characteristics of pulp and paper were determined by various methods including TAPPI test methods. The Kenaf-B, derived from the method B, showed the longest fiber length as length weighted average which confirmed that this treatment is the best preparation method for fiber length measurement. However, the viscosity and the paper strength properties of Kenaf-A was the highest if compared to the other two methods. Comparison of the viscosity and the strength properties with other pulps (commercial kenaf bast and wood pulps) indicated that all the three methods have superior properties but the Kenaf-A is the best pulp so far.
