Chip Thickness Screening and Chip Quality in the Pulp Mill
An overview of the value of chip sorting in the pulp mill, and the effect of chip size in digester operations. The general phenomenon of chip size distribution and its impact on pulping and the paybacks that can accrue from proper control of chip size are …
Read MoreOverthick Chip Treatment
Processes have been developed to selectively separate overthick chips from chips of acceptable thickness, and methods to render these large chips acceptable have been employed. These methods, and the resultant issues of processing efficiency, maintenance requirements, and cost, are explored…
READ MOREFines Screening with Rotary and Roll Screens
Traditionally this has been done using a shaker screen (rotary screen) fit with various types of fine mesh screen decks. Limitations to rotary screen operation have driven the development of alternative technologies, which now include roll screens. These new technologies incorporate a wide variety of innovative feat…
READ MOREPulping System Sensitivity to Chip Quality
Pulping systems vary in sensitivity to chip quality. Chip size distribution modification methods have been developed and applied to accommodate each system. Moisture content of the chips is not terribly important in mechanical pulping systems, provided it is uniform and above the fiber saturation point (FSP)…
READ MORERotary Debarking - A Process Description
Rotary Debarking has fast become a preferred method for multiple stem continuous feed wood debarking and processing for forest industries. Variants of this 20-year-old technology are being recognized as a viable alternative to single stem debarking methods…
