    Recently saving energy is an important issue in the pulp and paper industry in Japan because of increasing oil prices. Besides the price of waste paper which is used in our country is increasing, so we have to use low quality material more than before. We have to use low quality and weak strength of material so that we should well manage them. Therefore we would introduce a result of energy saving by our new refining machine and the new suitable plates for the low intensity refining.

    Alkenyl succinic anhydride (ASA) is of increased interest to the paper industry, mainly because of its potential to decrease the application costs. This paper reviews the most relevant parameters for trouble free ASA operations, the ASA manufacturing process, the emulsification process and the application of ASA in the wet end. Since those parameters are today better understood and more optimized than in the past, trouble-free ASA sizing is achieved in an increasing number of paper mills. Recent trends in the ASA technology indicate further developments towards new stabilizers and simpler emulsification systems targeting an even broader field of applications in the future.

    The authors introduce newly developed coating and calendaring technologies in our presentation.
    Multilayer coating gives a broader coating application window compared to traditional coating methods. It can apply both high coat weights and multiple layers in a single stage. In this way it gives better economy by enabling thicker, less expensive, coating layers for certain paper⁄board properties (bulk, opacity, brightness…) and thinner, more expensive, coating layers for other properties (gloss, barrier…) .
    Metal belt calendering gives better surface topography and printability compared to traditional, shorter dwell, calendering methods. The other way round is that it gives the targeted surface properties at higher bulk and stiffness thus saving in the material costs of the paper⁄board manufacturing.
    The preliminary research results of combining these new surface treatment processes are promising. It seems to be possible to compensate the less smooth surface produced by contour type multilayer coating by advanced, long dwell, metal belt calendering.

    Deposition of pitch or fine fiber on the press rolls causes defects in the sheet, sheet breaks and fiber rising. Especially for high speed PMs, 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 (Polymer based product, On Press™) 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 newsprint and coated paper M⁄C are presented.

    PaperIQ Plus developed by Metso is built upon the proven and successful architecture of the first PaperIQ systems. Modular and intelligent IQSensors with their extensive self diagnostic provide the low-noise sheet quality measurements required for stable controls. The performance of IQScanner has been upgraded by increasing its capability to scan at much higher speeds. Horizontal stiffness, alignment and vibration resistance have been improved. New scanning sensors have been added to measure sheet properties based on the optical technology. One of the newest sensors, IQCaliper-L, measures caliper without contacting to the sheet.
    Non scanning, full sheet measurements have been developed as well. IQInsight measures high frequency MD and CD snapshots of the sheet moisture immediately after it is formed and pressed, helping with wet end and press section optimization programs and allowing better control from that location.
    This paper presents the Metso new developed QCS with new scanner and sensors.

    Optical properties are the most readily-assessed quality attributes of pulp and paper products, which have directly impact on price performance. Visual assessment and ranking are highly subjective and influenced by conditions, so that several evaluation methods were developed. But, insufficient knowledge with the result difference between methods caused disagreement and confusion in the marketplace. So, knowing a basic knowledge of optical properties and best measurement to meet customer’s specification is essential to paper makers. The calibration program is also important part in measurement to sustain reliable results, which productive calibration program is provided by the Paprican, Pulp and Paper Research Institute of Canada.
    This report shows highlights of a presentation on optical properties made by Paprican at the L&W seminar in May. It illustrates the basic concepts of optical measurements and factors influencing optical properties, as well as the importance of regular calibration to ensure reliable results.

    Conversion of gland packing to mechanical seal in pulp and paper mills is underway but it is only limited to the major machines like pumps for cooking and chemical or refiners. Gland packing is still favoured in raw material tanks or horizontal agitators for chest.
    This is because the horizontal agitators often generate shaft runout or vibration because of its long distance with external bearing that maintains shaft, or change of load to impeller due to liquid decrease, etc., and it is thought that mechanical seals cannot accommodate.
    However, there is a mechanical seal that can absorb such shaft runout or vibration by using rubber bellows. Furthermore, its fully split design can reduce cost and time of the maintenance.
    We would like to introduce here the fully split mechanical seal which can accommodate the shaft runout of horizontal agitators with actual experiences.

    “For sound or noise in industrial world” is the third in this time. I want to see by thinking mainly about the sound that the person doesn’t hear of easily this time. In a sense, the noise that the machine is generated seems to be “Scream” of the machine. The state of the rotation seems to have emitted various noise as bad one. I think that the sound of person’s hearing is a sound pressure (roundness) , the frequency (tone) , and it exists variously. I want to explain these while putting the example.

    It is required to use more Japanese softwoods, for example, Larix leptolepis (Japanese larch) , Pinus densiflora (Japanese red pine) , and Cryptomeria japonica (Japanese cedar) for the effective production of pulp and bio-energy. The pulp yield in cooking stage is one of the most important factors at a pulp mill. However, it is difficult to know the yield due to a continuous operation of the mill. In this paper, we proposed on a method for estimating Japanese softwood pulp yields at a continuously operated kraft pulp mill. The behaviors of xylan, mannan, carbohydrate and hexenuronic acid (HexA) contents in various alkaline cooking of Japanese larch were studied. A part of dissolved xylan was re-adsorbed by wood fibers in the cooking, and the result indicates that the pulp yield can not be estimated from ratios of xylose to glucose (X⁄G ratios) liberated by acid hydrolysis from the pulps. Therefore, we made some equations which could simulate the behaviors of delignification, carbohydrates, ratio of mannose to glucose (M⁄G ratios) , and HexA in the cooking from the results of kraft, kraft-AQ and PS-AQ cooks. From these equations, we clarified the relationship between pulp yields and the M⁄G ratios, and then, it was shown that a good correlation existed between pulp yields and M⁄G ratios at kappa number 25. The softwoods pulp yields with kappa number 25 at the mill using the Japanese red pine and Japanese cedar mixed wood chips were estimated by the proposed method. The M⁄G ratios of mill pulps from kraft-AQ and kraft cooks were 0.0812 and 0.0704, respectively, and the result means that the pulp yield by kraft-AQ cook was 1.3% higher than that by kraft method. HexA contents of PS-AQ and kraft-AQ pulps with kappa number 25 at a given H-factor from Japanese softwoods were higher than that of kraft pulp. At the mill trial, the HexA content of kraft-AQ pulp was 7 mmol⁄kg higher than that of kraft pulp.
