Considerations in managing wastewater odor at pulp and paper operations, TAPPI Journal March 2022

ABSTRACT: Many pulp and paper mills are, at least periodically, faced with the release of odors that can migrate offsite and be considered a nuisance by nearby residents. At chemical pulp mills, perceptible odors associated with reduced sulfur compounds (RSCs) are common, many of which are highly perceptible owing to their low odor thresholds. As releases of RSCs and other odorous substances from production processes are progressively controlled, the proportional contribution from wastewater treatment systems to areal odors can increase. This review paper summarizes important fundamentals of odor generation, source identification, and control. Common odorous substances are identified, and mechanisms for their generation are summarized. Approaches for measuring odorous substances are detailed to enable more effective management, and various odor control strategies are discussed.

Characterizing rheological behavior and fluidization of highly refined furnishes, TAPPI Journal April 2024

ABSTRACT: In this work, highly refined softwood bleached kraft pulp (SWBKP) furnishes, referred to here as XFC, were studied from the perspective of fiber suspension handling in processing. The rheology of the furnishes was studied with a rotational rheometer using a non-standard flow geometry to understand the viscosity development at different consistencies and the impact of temperature. For fluidization analysis during pipe flow, two optical methods were implemented; namely, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and high-speed video (HSV) imaging. The OCT was used to determine the small-scale floc structures near the pipe wall where the shear stress is highest, and the HSV imaging was applied for observing flow instabilities and XFC suspension uniformity at the pipe scale. All these issues can be significant in deciding the minimum flow rate required for a process pipe to get sufficient fluidization of XFC suspensions.
