  3. 17. Washing efficiency in the pulp mill : An evaluation of the washing efficiency in SCA Munksund's pulp mill

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Malin Malmberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Chemical Pulp; Lignin; COD; Pulp Washer; Kraft Pulping; Pappersmassa; Lignin; COD; Massatvätt; Sulfatmassaprocessen;

    Abstract : Munksunds pappersbruk är ett integrerat massa- och pappersbruk som består av två fiberlinjer, en barr- och en lövlinje där båda kokarna är kontinuerliga med efterföljande tvättsteg. En kartering av COD (eng. Chemical Oxygen Demand) och natrium utfördes för båda linjerna för att utvärdera tvätteffektiviteten. READ MORE

  4. 18. Quality of Spent Mushroom Compost Amended with Organic Material- Effect on Nutrient Content and Plant Growth

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

  6. 20. Investigation of Milled Wood Lignin Extraction Using Enzymatic Hydrolysis for Application in Hydrophobic Barriers in the Food Packaging Industry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Anna Wagne; [2023]
    Keywords : Lignin; extraction; hydrophobicity; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The objective of this report is twofold: to optimise the extraction method of lignin from spruce altering a few process parameters and to investigate the use of lignin as a hydrophobic barrier in food applications. The process used was STEX (steam explosion) pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis and MWL (milled wood lignin) extraction using a mixture of dioxane-water. READ MORE
