  1. 1. Effect of Refining on Softwood Pulp with Addition of Eucalyptus for Greaseproof Paper Production : Vacuum Dewatering in Laboratory Scale

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Anton Nordling; [2023]
    Keywords : Refining; beating; eucalyptus; greaseproof paper; degree of refining; vacuum dewatering; formation; air permeance; Malning; Eukalyptus; fettresistent papper; malgrad; vakuumavvattning; formation; luftpermeans;

    Abstract : We are provided countless products from the forest industry and has been through many years. Paper, paper board, packaging materials and furniture to mention a few. A special type of paper used in food packaging for example, is greaseproof paper. READ MORE

  2. 2. Improvements in Energy Efficiency of Vacuum Dewatering of Greaseproof Paper : Simulation of a Triple Vacuum Suction Box in Laboratory Scale

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för kemiteknik

    Author : Björn Öman; [2023]
    Keywords : Vacuum dewatering; greaseproof paper; triple vacuum suction box; grammage; energy efficiency; dryness; Vakuumavvattning; greaseproofpapper; trippelvakuumsuglåda; ytvikt; energieffektivitet; torrhalt;

    Abstract : Vacuum dewatering of paper is a heavily energy expensive process, even more so for greaseproof paper, which is one of the main products at Nordic Paper Seffle AB. Due to this being such an energy demanding process, improvements in the vacuum dewatering could save massive amounts of energy. READ MORE

  3. 3. Study of the temperature profile during industrial coating process

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Gustav Isberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Coating; Surface temperature; PVOH; Barrier;

    Abstract : Drying rate during industrial coating application is important to understand because drying a coated paper requires energy. If an unnecessary high amount of energy is used to dry paper, a fast evaporation rate can be achieved which can result in defects of the coated surface. READ MORE

  4. 4. Salivary flow rate and xerostomia in patients with head and neck cancer after radiation therapy

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Tandläkarutbildning

    Author : Alexander Hanna; Andrea Capraru; [2022]
    Keywords : Salivary flow rate; head and neck cancer; xerostomia; hyposalivation;

    Abstract : Background: Radiation therapy used for head and neck cancer patients cause many side effects in the oral cavity and above all affects the salivary glands. Complaint of dry mouth (xerostomia) and hyposalivation are common as well as swallowing difficulty (dysphagia) even after the cancer is remitted. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling gross primary production in semi-arid regions: effects on carbon uptake of intensive agriculture in southern Kenya

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Malin Ahlbäck; [2020]
    Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; GPP; Africa; Kenya; Land cover changes; Cropland; Remote sensing; Sentinel-2; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Background and aim: Gross primary production (GPP) is the largest global carbon (C) flux and an important component for counteracting anthropogenic CO2 emissions, understanding vegetation dynamics, and sustaining universal human standards. Africa plays a prominent role in the global C cycle, though our understanding of GPP dynamics is largely hampered by a paucity of ground-based observations. READ MORE
