  2. Organosolv - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organosolv

    Organic solvents are almost always used as a mixture with water for process considerations such as reducing the vapour pressure and lowering the pH in order to also solubilise hemicellulose. Only some small organosolv pulp mills are run today for production of pulp from annual renewable non wood fibre sources like straw, bagasse, etc. [8]

  3. Wood-free paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood-free_paper

    The lignin also makes the pulp turn yellow when exposed to light and air. Mechanical pulps are used in the production of non-permanent papers such as newsprint and catalog papers. Mechanical pulps made up 20% to 25% of the world production and this is increasing because of the high yield of the process and increasing competition for fiber ...

  4. Cellular manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_manufacturing

    Cellular manufacturing facilitates both production and quality control. [17] Cells that are underperforming in either volume or quality can be easily isolated and targeted for improvement. The segmentation of the production process allows problems to be easily located and it is more clear which parts are affected by the problem.

  5. Paper engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_engineering

    The process of chemical pulping is used to chemically disband the lignin found in the cell walls of the material undergoing the process. After the cellulose fibers are separated from the lignin, a pulp is created which can then be treated to create durable paper, boxes, and corrugated cardboard.

  6. Cocoa bean fermentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocoa_bean_fermentation

    Cotyledon contain two major types of cells, storage cells and pigment cells. It is within the cotyledon that flavor precursors develop during fermentation, after the bean is germinated and is then killed. In germination, the protein vacuoles within the storage cells take on water. As the cell dies, and the cell walls and membranes deteriorate ...

  7. Pulp (paper) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_(paper)

    Recycled pulp is also called deinked pulp (DIP). DIP is recycled paper which has been processed by chemicals, thus removing printing inks and other unwanted elements and freed the paper fibres. The process is called deinking. DIP is used as raw material in papermaking.

  8. Kraft process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraft_process

    The kraft process (also known as kraft pulping or sulfate process) is a process for conversion of wood into wood pulp, which consists of almost pure cellulose fibres, the main component of paper. The kraft process involves treatment of wood chips with a hot mixture of water, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and sodium sulfide (Na 2 S), known as white ...

  9. Dissolving pulp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolving_pulp

    Dissolving pulp is mainly produced chemically from pulpwood in a process that has a low yield (30 - 35% of the wood). This makes up of about 85 - 88% of the production. [2] Dissolving pulp is made from the sulfite process or the kraft process with an acid prehydrolysis step to remove hemicelluloses. For the highest quality, it should be derived ...
