Editorial: Innovation: How useful is it?, TAPPI Journal February 2022

ABSTRACT: Innovation has become a genuine buzz word to promote one’s product or company, to highlight its strength, and to enhance its visibility. The use of words like novel, innovative, etc., help with market-ability, enhance economic strength, and elevate initial public offering (IPO) status. Genuine innovation helps with improving lifestyles, health, the environment, and the economy.

Editorial: Special issue showcases new additive approaches for a lignocellulose-based future, TAPPI Journal January 2024

ABSTRACT: Lignocellulose-derived materials are inherently renewable and are of benefit not only through their recyclability and biodegradability, but also from carbon sequestration during the production of the base raw material. With regulatory agencies tightening restrictions and consumer habits slowly shifting, the paper industry is well positioned to fill a market need for renewable bio-based materials. Although the inherent benefits of lignocellulose-based products are many, all too often, the end-product does not meet the required performance or cost in use desired by end-users. This creates obstacles for a more renewable economy that relies less on petroleum-derived products.

Improving monochloramine performance with innovative sensor-controlled dosing, TAPPI Journal January 2024

ABSTRACT: Monochloramine (MCA) has become one of the major oxidant chemistries for biological control in the paper industry. Feedback control, such as oxidative-reductive potential (ORP), is often used to provide better control of a dosing scheme. The trademarked Ackumen MCA-i is a chemical-digital solution that uses artificial intelligence with actionable insights to stabilize the wet-end process, providing improved performance and reduction in overall chemical costs. Accurate sensor-controlled dosing can be tied to multiple inputs, such as production rates, grade changes, pH, ORP, chlorine residual, freshwater usage, and more. In this study, a case history will be presented to demonstrate how this technology provided a more consistent MCA molecule throughout the process, resulting in a higher level of efficacy and reduction in chemical costs.
