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.

Ultrastructural Behavior of Cell Wall Polysaxxharides, TAPPI Journal April 2022
ABSTRACT: Considerable information on the ultrastructural organization of the plant cell wall and the supermolecular arragement of the cell wall components, in particular of cellulose, has been obtained with the electron microscope.

Modeling of the energy of a smelt-water explosion in the recovery boiler dissolving tank, TAPPI Journal August 2020
ABSTRACT: The explosion energy generated as molten smelt droplets interact with water was evaluated as a function of smelt distribution, water temperature, and smelt temperature using a thermodynamic model. The results show that increasing smelt-to-water volume ratio and water temperature significantly increases the explosion energy, converting a larger proportion of the thermal energy of smelt into mechanical work. To reduce the chance of violent smelt-water explosions, it is important to: i) optimize the shatter jet design and operation to uniformly distribute the smelt over a large area in the dissolving tank; ii) avoid high green liquor temperature and ensure adequate liquor mixing; and iii) avoid upsets that may cause heavy smelt runoff or jellyroll smelt.

Wheat straw as an alternative pulp fiber, TAPPI Journal January 2020
ABSTRACT: The desire to market sustainable packaging materials has led to an interest in the use of various fiber types as a raw material. It has been suggested that the use of annual crops for partial replacement of wood fiber would result in more sustainable products. Several life cycle analyses (LCA) have been performed to evaluate these claims. These LCAs provided conflicting and contradictory results because of the local conditions and the specific pulping processes investigated. Selected LCAs are reviewed and the underlying reasons for these conflicting results are analyzed.
