    Pulper is one of the highest power consumption equipment among various components of secondary fiber system. Therefore increasing efficiency of a pulper which stands at the first stage of the system leads to reduction of power consumption in the whole system. VPIT’s low consistency pulper “Intensa Pulper” which received Sasaki Award last year can be directly connected to slot screen bypassing primary coase screen, thanks to its high quality comparable to outlet of coase screen with lower power consumption compared to conventional pulper. With Intensa Pulper, it is also possible to reduce power consumption significantly in secondary fiber system including auxiliaries, by simplifying the system in combination with LP Screen which can cut power consumption down to approx. 1⁄4 of conventional slot screen.
    Here we would like to introduce the case of Nippon Daishowa Paperboard Co., Ltd., Akita Mill, who actually adopted this system and achieved huge energy saving.

    Press section efficiency is largely dependent upon contact uniformity in the press nip. Yet, improper cover crowns, biased loading, uneven roll cover wear and uneven fabric wear can all cause non-uniformity-leading to costly sheet breaks, reduced paper quality, increased costs and decreased roll cover or fabric life. Traditional tools used to measure nip performance require machine downtime and data extrapolation to obtain a snapshot used to forecast operating conditions. Until now, there has never been a way to reliably monitor the uniformity of the nip profile to changing machine conditions.
    SMART® Technology employs a proprietary embedded sensor system to extract data from the roll cover during machine operation. For the first time, machine operators get real-time knowledge of true operating conditions. Real-time knowledge provides the ability to make on-the-run adjustments and the power to optimize production, reduce energy consumption and control costs.

    Newly developed coater blade having long life with good profile is presented in this paper.
    Nomura Plating Co. has developed “Long life plated coater blade with special chromium surface” in 1990. Developed blades were having at least 3 times longer life compared to the blade of SK material. Since then this blades have been accepted and widely used by the customer.
    In addition to the long life, our coater blade has such merit as improving surface quality of the paper and deceasing streaks due to metallic characteristics of chromium on the blade. Hence, plated blade has been well-received and widely used in many customers in the paper industry even today. However, customers requirement to reduce production cost and improve paper quality are becoming harsh year by year.
    And so, we pursue a forward improvement of blade having longer life and fewer streaks and then we have successfully developed “Chromium coater blade with precisely maintained blade shape”. Longer life of this new blade has been established by increasing thickness of plating with suitable kind of chromium. And stable good profile is obtained by precisely grinding blade edge also.
    Field evaluation is also presented in this paper.

    Caliper measurement and control is a vital part of papermaking. But this measurement can be a challenge. Over the years, various mechanical and optical sensors have been invented to achieve the best combination of accuracy, no sheet damage and reliable operation.
    Some caliper sensors utilize laser triangulation. There are several inherent accuracy problems in this method, one particular problem known as light penetration. Grade-dependent and process-dependent calibrations or other compensations may be required when utilizing a laser caliper sensor.
    In this paper, we present a new, optical on-line measurement that measures caliper without laser triangulation, thus vastly reducing errors and provide a more reliable measurement. This new method can also detect very small scale variability of the sheet. Findings on a production paper machine will also be discussed.

  • Relationship between Hexenuronic Acid and Brightness Reversion of ECF-bleached Hardwood Kraft Pulp Part (Part II)
    -Mechanism of Brightness Reversion and Depressing of the Yellowing by Size-pressed Treatment-

    Yellowing of ECF (Elementally Chlorine Free) or TCF (Totally Chlorine Free) bleached pulp has became a significant problem since 1990 s. It has been shown that hexenuronic acid (HexA) is a main cause, but the mechanism of the yellowing is not clear. In order to suppress the yellowing, the removal of HexA from pulp has been conducted by acid treatment, hot chlorine dioxide bleaching, ozone bleaching and others. However, they need a large amount of energy, and decrease pulp yield and strength.
    In this report, mechanism of the yellowing was investigated. The results suggest that the yellowing consists of two-stage reactions. The first reaction is the hydrolysis of HexA, and the second one is the reaction of 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (FFA) , which is one of hydrolytic products of HexA. Therefore, it is suggested that the yellowing can be depressed by inhibition of the reaction of FFA.
    We found that low molecular weight carboxylic acids (for example, citric acid, tartaric acid and others) and polycarboxylic acid (for example, polyacrylic acid) are useful as a yellowing inhibitor. Size press coating test was carried out as one of the practical ways of adding the inhibitor to the paper. This method was effective to depress the yellowing, while maintaining physical paper properties.
