Efforts of Microwave and Infrared Radiation in Chemical Pulping pay off

Pulping is a procedure that separates fibrous material and cellulose from wood or other crude material as a prelude to papermaking. The reason for pulping is to free cellulose strands from other chemicals and polluting influences in the wood (or different fibrous source). Before wood can be pulped, it must experience debarking i.e. expelling bark mechanically or hydraulically and then sending the debarked wood into a chipper to cut them into small pieces ready for pulping. Pulping can be done by three processes –
  1. Mechanical – Using machines like revolving disks to prepare the pulp for paper making.
  2. Chemical – wood chips are cooked in a combination of chemical solution to remove cellulose or lignin from the wood.
  3. Semi-mechanical – a blend of mechanical and chemical.
Here we understand the process of Chemical Pulping in detail. As known it is a method of converting the wooden chips into damp pulp for paper making or processing, by cooking the wooden chips in a chemical solution to extract lignin or cellulose content which is primarily responsible for reducing paper quality and permanence. Chemical Pulping has two primary methods of processing –
  • The Sulfite process: cooks wood chips in sulfurous acid combined with limestone to produce calcium bi-sulfite. The combination of sulfurous acid and calcium bi-sulfite dissolves the lignin in the wood and liberates the cellulose fibers. Sulfite pulp is soft and flexible, is moderately strong, and is used to supplement mechanical pulps.
  • The Sulfate Process: evolved from the soda processes developed in the nineteenth century using strong bases to digest wood. Pulpers began adding sodium sulfate (correctly known as sodium sulfide) to the soda process and a significantly stronger pulp was produced. This process is more accurately known as the Kraft process (after the German word meaning ‘strength’)
Advantages of Chemical Pulping in production of paper:
  • Stronger fibre in paper
  • Highest quality printing and writing papers
  • Fewer impurities
  • Wastages can be used as fuel
  • Brighter papers produced

Different Types of Sterilization Process

  Sterilization can be accomplished by an amalgamation of heat, chemicals, irradiation, high pressure and filtration such as steam under pressure, dry heat, ultraviolet radiation, gas vapour sterilants, chlorine dioxide gas etc. Successful sterilization strategies are necessary for working in a lab and negligence of this could lead to severe consequences, it could unexpectedly cost a life. So what are the more frequently utilized methods of sterilization in the laboratory, and how do they work? The Sterilization is conveyed out by the methods according to requirement. The methods are: 1. Moist Heat Sterilization 2. Dry Heat Sterilization 3. Gas Sterilization and Others. Moist Heat Sterilization:  Moderate pressure is utilized in steam sterilization. Steam is utilized under pressure as a means of accomplishing an elevated temperature. It is dominant to confirm the accurate quality of steam is utilized in order to keep away the problems which follow, superheating of the steam, f...

Microwave Continuous Vulcanization (CV) Rubber Curing Oven

Vulcanization is process of converting natural rubber or rubber polymers into more durable and mechanically strengthens rubber by the process of mixing sulfur and processing. This process results in changing the cross-linking bonds within the natural rubber and making bonds more strong and non-sticky.  Vulcanization curing is achieved by heating the natural rubber or rubber polymer at very high temperature along with sulfur or any other agent, such high level of temperature rise results into changing of bond within the rubber and resulting in non-sticky, maker it lesser deformable when heated, and removes the brittleness this helps rubber to achieve the desired level of elasticity. Continuous Vulcanization curingprocess is most common process used for variety of application. In the process Continuous Vulcanization curing rubber and accelerator is put under high temperature and pressure, this mixture is passed through the continuous heating line during the process, some of C-...

Organic Food and its increasing consumer demand

Organic Food Processing  is where organic raw materials are processed into food and drink. The organics standard of food processing is to protect the food constituents so that organic ingredients are used, and encourage the avoidance of unnecessary chemical or physical. Organic labeling offers consumers, the confidence that the eatables they consume are produced under controlled organic standards. Organic food should be of high nutritional and high natural quality. With the growing awareness even the governments of various countries have setup a separate body to monitor the whole Organic Processing System, in India that being National Program for Organic Production (NPOP). India is one of the upcoming leading processors in this sector. Some private standards demand that organic food should fulfill the criteria of wholesome nutrition, where processing methods must be seen as relevant tools. Most processing methods have more or less strong influences on product properties. Heat...
