Editorial: Transform presentations to TAPPI Journal research papers by following basic steps, TAPPI Journal August 2024
ABSTRACT: Very often, important research findings are communicated in presentation form at industry conferences like those TAPPI holds. While this is a great way to highlight your work, it has some limitations when compared to a peer-reviewed TAPPI Journal paper. Presentations are limited to a specific event, while publishing papers in a peer-reviewed journal means that your work becomes part of scientific literature that is available to a broader audience. Also, a research paper allows for a more detailed explanation of the methods, data, and conclusions than the time-constrained format of a presentation.

Editorial: Special issues in March and May TAPPI Journal focus on the latest pulp manufacture and engineering research, TAPPI Journal March 2024
ABSTRACT: This issue, organized by Editor-in-Chief Peter Hart, features content from the 2023 PEERS/IBBC Conference that has been peer reviewed for publication in TAPPI Journal. The papers encompass a range of topics:œ Two papers, from researchers Suarez et al. at WestRock, examine pulp from nonwoods like wheat straw and sugar-cane bagasse using a holistic life cycle analysis approach to project environmental performance in packaging products. The results can help mills make decisions about which fibers ensure a low carbon footprint.

Continuous digester rapid thinning, TAPPI Journal June 2024
ABSTRACT: Carbon steel continuous digesters built after the early 1980s are fully stress relieved, so stress corrosion cracking has been less of a concern. However, these newer digesters were designed to run modified cooking processes that have turned out to be much more corrosive than those running with conventional cooking. This corrosion is mainly associated with softwood digesters and appears to be flow related. Average corrosion rates of 40 mil/year are possible on the exposed shell between the wash and extraction screens. The corrosion patterns are visually distinct from surfaces in the upper digester and below the wash screens. This paper goes into practical detail on where it occurs, the causes, visual identification, inspection planning and results evaluation, and finally, how to mitigate this damage, which consists of applying a corrosion resistant barrier. Some discussion on dealing with general corrosion throughout the digester is included.

Production of antimicrobial paper using nanosilver, nanocellulose, and chitosan from a coronavirus perspective, TAPPI Journal July 2021
ABSTRACT: The pulp and paper industry has an opportunity to play a vital role in breaking the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic through production that supports widespread use of antimicrobial paper. This paper provides a brief review of paper and paper-related industries, such as those producing relevant additives, and R&D organizations that are actively engaged in developing antimicrobial papers. The focus here is on the potential of three nano-additives for use in production of antimicrobial papers that combat coronavirus: nanosilver, nanocellulose, and chitosan. Various recent developments in relevant areas and concepts underlining the fight against coronavirus are also covered, as are related terms and concepts.
