Pulp and paper generates the third largest amount of industrial air, water, and land emissions in Canada and the sixth largest in the United States. [12] [13] In 2015, the industry released 174,000 tonnes of emissions to air, water and land (or 5.3%) out of a total of 3.3 million tonnes of emissions released by all industries in Canada. [12]
The lignin in the paper is also oxidized, which yellows the paper. The gradual and eventually complete deterioration of the paper as the cellulose chains disintegrate is known as "slow fire". Paper acidification may be accelerated by environmental factors, especially nitrogen and sulfur oxides in polluted air. [6]
One book and paper conservation technique that resulted from this collaboration was the development of the "heat-set tissue" paper mending. [24] Another development from the Florence floods was the study of limp vellum binding and its usefulness in conservation due to its resistance to water damage. [25]

Unlike the normal papermaking process, air-laid paper does not use water as the carrying medium for the fibre. Fibres are carried and formed to the structure of paper by air. The air-laid structure is isotropic. The raw material is long fibered softwood fluff pulp in roll form. The pulp are defibrized in a hammermill. Defibration is the process ...

A great method of reconstructing a layer of carbonized papyri is to use Japanese tissue paper and a sheet of glass, on which to place the layer. Then a layer of wax paper or plastic paper is placed over the whole reconstruction and then cover that with a glass plate. [16] This step is done to ease the process of turning the papyrus layers over.
Salt in the air and water eats away at metal and exposed metal is especially vulnerable. Driving through puddles in low lying coastal areas can ruin your vehicle, because the salt water corrodes it.
