Abstract:
A method of dosing a nanocellulose suspension in gel phase into a second suspension, wherein the method comprises the steps of: providing said nanocellulose suspension in gel phase; providing said second suspension; bringing said nanocellulose suspension in gel phase in contact with said second suspension; wherein the method comprises a step of subjecting said nanocellulose suspension in gel phase to a shear rate of more than 500 l/s, simultaneously with and/or immediately prior to the step of bringing said nanocellulose suspension in gel phase and said second suspension in contact with each other.
Abstract:
A sheet manufacturing apparatus includes: a defibration unit that defibrates a raw material containing fibers in a gas atmosphere; and a sheet former that forms a sheet by using at least a part of defibrated substances obtained through a defibrating process performed by the defibration unit. The defibration unit and the sheet former are thermally blocked from each other.
Abstract:
A process for improving the dry strength of the paper by applying a dry-strength enhancing composition to pulp during a paper-making process, said dry-strength enhancing composition comprising a solution comprising an acid mixed with at least one metal ion wherein the metal ion is generally provided as a metal sulfate or a solubilized sulfate to form a mixture (I), wherein the mixture generates an exothermic reaction to form a mixture (II) and wherein the mixture is cooled to form the dry-strength enhancing composition.
Abstract:
A functional substance adsorption device for fibers including: a casing having a space formed therein and an opening and closing door located on the front surface thereof; a drum rotatably disposed inside the casing and having a space formed therein to put the fibers therein and a plurality of fine through holes formed thereon; a driving part disposed on one side of the casing to rotate the drum; and a fine particle supply part comprising a fine particle supply hose communicating with the outer periphery of the casing, a vaporization tank connected to one side of the fine particle supply hose, a pneumatic ultrasound generator disposed inside the vaporization tank to vaporize an antimicrobial agent, and an air compressor for supplying pneumatic pressure to the pneumatic ultrasound generator.
Abstract:
The method and a device is for the dilution of dewatered cellulose pulp that maintains a consistency of 20-30% or greater. By shredding of the pulp to a finely divided dry-granulate, dilution to a homogeneous consistency in the medium consistency range can take place exclusively through hydrodynamic effects from the addition of dilution fluid. The dilution fluid is added to granulate at a position at which granulate is in free fall in a standpipe and above a level Liq.sub.LEV of diluted pulp in the standpipe. A number of nozzles are arranged around the periphery of the stand pipe, directed in towards the centre of the stand pipe, obliquely downwards in the direction of fall of the granulate. It is possible through this simplified procedure to avoid completely the conventional dilution screws, and this reduces the investment costs and operating costs, while at the same time unnecessary mechanical influence of the pulp fibres can be avoided.
Abstract:
A device for feeding cellulose-containing pulp from a dewatering unit, the dewatered pulp being discharged via an outlet included in the dewatering unit to a reception means positioned below the outlet, whereupon the pulp is transported to a stand pipe via an inlet included in the stand pipe, in which stand pipe the pulp falls freely under the influence of gravity, the reception means being positioned at a higher level than the inlet of the stand pipe. At least one feeding down surface is arranged which extends from the reception means to the inlet of the stand pipe, and the transport of the pulp between the reception means and the inlet of the stand pipe is effected by feeding the pulp downwards along this feeding down surface under the influence of gravity, the pulp being diluted during the feeding of the pulp downwards.
Abstract:
An impregnation vessel including: a vessel container including an upper inlet to receive cellulosic material; a lower discharge port to discharge the cellulosic material from a discharge section of the vessel container; a convergence section internal to the vessel through which passes a flow of the cellulosic material in the vessel; a cavity between an internal wall of the vessel and the convergence section, wherein the cavity has a lower opening to the cellulosic material in the vessel and an upper section shielded from the flow of cellulosic material in the vessel, and an input port in the vessel and opening to the cavity, wherein the input port is connectable to a source of hot liquid to be added to the cellulosic material in the vessel.
Abstract:
The invention presents a pulp concentration adjusting method and its device for realizing a used paper recycling apparatus being installed in a room of a small shop or the like, friendly to the environment, low in running cost, and capable of maintaining a high confidentiality. The pulp concentration adjusting section is characterized by dividing a specified portion from the whole volume of used paper pulp manufactured in pulp making section in preceding process, adding water for adjusting concentration to the divided portion of used paper pulp, and adjusting the total volume of the divided portion of used paper pulp and water to a specified value, thereby preparing a pulp suspension of specified concentration. In this manner, by adjusting the concentration of used paper pulp in dividing portions (small portions), the water consumption can be saved substantially and the apparatus size is reduced, while enhancing the processing capacity.
