 INTRODUCTION

ANCIENT PAPER MAKING PROCESS

Paper plays a major role in the evolution of our civilization. On the

other hand, it is very difficult to imagine modern life without paper.
The United States of America is the largest market for paper product
and it also commands high per capital consumption. Moreover,
Asia’s main markets are China, Japan, India, Malaysia, Thailand and
Singapore.

Paper is a thin sheet usually manufactured from cellulose

pulp derived from wood and other lignocellulosic materials
such as cotton, rice or wheat straw for writing, printing and
packaging purposes. Some of the important production
processes and properties of different kind of papers will be
reviewed in this fact sheet.

It is believed that paper originated in China in the 2nd

century as alternative writing material to silk. Production of
paper was introduced to Europe in the 12th century. Almost
200 years of mechanized production of paper resulted in
significant changes in information networking all over the
world.

The paper industry is one of the most thriving industries in the world.
Besides fulfilling the requirements of the people, paper industry
provides employment to millions of people.
 THE PROCESS

The first step in a typical paper manufacturing process is to

produce pulp from wood chip. Softwoods, such as spruce and
pine with slender, strong and elastic fibers, are most
commonly used species in North America. In general, pulp,
which is the raw material of paper, can be manufactured
using two methods: chemical pulping or mechanical pulping.

The first one involves breaking down the chemical structure

of lignin into a liquid using different chemicals, including
sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfide. Cooking liquor is a by-
product of the production, which is washed from cellulose
fibers to produce pulp. Chemical pulping is used to produce
higher quality paper with more expensive production cost
than that of mechanical pulping.
Mechanical pulping can further be classified into two
subgroups, namely ground pulping and thermo-mechanical
pulp (TMP) that does not remove lignin from the fibers in
contrast to chemical pulping. In both methods chips are
simply fed into a refiner to disintegrate and to convert the
material into fiber bundles. The refiners are consisted of
steam-heated rotating steel discs having different types of
profiles. The final product of TMP is unbleached, dark pulp
with short-length fibers. The main advantage of this kind of
pulp is it has a higher yield than that of chemical pulping. The
second one is a more commonly used method to produce
paper with low strength properties.

Initially, paper was made manually as single sheets until the

invention of paper machine by Louis Robert in France in
1799. Figure 1 illustrates schematics of the first paper
machine of Louis Robert.

PAPER MAKING MACHINE

Today, the Fourdrinier paper machine is extensively used to

form the fiber mat for production of various types of papers,
such as writing and drawing papers, printing and newspaper,
wrapping and tissue paper, and other special papers.
Typical mechanized paper production involves two main
processes: the treatment of raw material, which includes
converting chip into pulp, washing and bleaching, refining,
beating, sizing, coloring of the fibers, and later to form paper
sheet in a Fourdrinier machine.
For writing purposes whiteness of paper is important,
therefore, pulp is bleached using mostly oxygen bleaching
techniques rather than chlorine bleaching due to its high
environmental pollution problem. Dark color lignin is
removed during the bleaching process. Most of the strength
of paper comes from hydrogen bond between fibers. Beating
and refining of the pulp increase surface area of fibers so that
better contact between fibers will result in higher mechanical
properties of the paper.

A conical refiner is a widely used machine to improve pulp

quality, as shown in Figure 2. Pulp flows on the screen of the
Fourdrinier, and water is drained away with the help of a
series of vacuum boxes and other equipment before a thin
sheet of fiber mat is formed. Speed of the sheet in the
machine ranges from 1,200 fpm (13.6 mph) to 5,000 fpm
(56.7 mph). Once the paper web is formed in a sheet, its
moisture content is reduced first using suction units, called
the wet press area, and later by drum type dryers. Paper
sheet continuously runs through a series of stainless steel
drums heated up to 200oF (93oC) to ensure the sheet has an
approximate 4-5% moisture content.
Calendering is a Process to enhance both physical and
mechanical properties of paper as it passes through a
specially designed series of drum type rolls as a result of
friction.
 For example, surface finish of newsprint is mainly due to
calendering process. Depending on the type of paper, further
finishing processes are needed.
Application of coats of various types of chemicals applied to
the surface of the paper make it extra shiny for special
applications, such as art papers. In general, coated papers are
classified into three groups: matte, semi matte and glossy.
Finally, the paper sheet is wound into large rolls, and then,
they become ready to be shipped.
 “HISTORY OF PAPER”
“Before paper as we know it existed, people communicated
through pictures and symbols carved into tree bark, painted
on cave walls, and marked on papyrus or clay tablets.”

About 2,000 years ago, inventors in China took

communication to the next level, crafting cloth sheets to
record their drawings and writings. And paper, as we know it
today, was born!

Paper was first made in Lei-Yang, China by Ts'ai Lun, a

Chinese court official. In all likelihood, Ts'ai mixed mulberry
bark, hemp and rags with water, mashed it into pulp, pressed
out the liquid and hung the thin mat to dry in the sun.

During the 8th century, about 300 years after Ts’ai’s

discovery, the secret traveled to the region that is now the
Middle East. Yet, it took another 500 years for papermaking
to enter Europe. One of the first paper mills was built in
Spain, and soon, paper was being made at mills all across
Europe.

Then, with paper easier to make, paper was used for printing
important books, bibles, and legal documents.

England began making large supplies of paper in the late 15th

century and supplied the colonies with paper for many years.
Finally, in 1690, the first U.S. paper mill was built in
Pennsylvania.

At first American paper mills used the Chinese method of

shredding old rags and clothes into individual fibers to make
paper.

But, as the demand for paper grew, the mills changed to

using fiber from trees because wood was less expensive and
more abundant than cloth.

Today, paper is made from trees grown in sustainably

managed forests and from recycled paper.

Recycling has always been a part of papermaking.

When you recycle your used paper, paper mills will use it to
make new notebook paper, paper grocery bags, cardboard
boxes, envelopes, magazines, cartons, newspapers and other
paper products.

 “THE PAPER PRODUCTION PROCESS AT
SAINSONS”

Sainsons Paper Industries Pvt. Ltd. processes Brown Paper

which is also known as kraft paper through pulp and its main
by product is ‘Soda Ash’.
This Kraft Paper is made from two types :- Agro waste and
Recycled method which is carried through Caustic Soda.

This production process is carried out on a repeated basis which

takes place in a continuous digester which reduces the waste
production to negligible .
Raw Material used in this paper production is paddy straw which
is firstly processed in a boiler and thus converted in plus which is
further processed into digesters and turned into the final product
I.e Kraft paper.
( Raw material used in this process is highly inflameable.

• Targeted markets:-
▫ Production houses which uses carton boxes for packaging
▫ Wrapping sheets for stationery purposes , and many more.
 ❖ The process name is derived from the German word Kraft,
meaning "strength" in this context, due to the strength of the
kraft paper produced using this process.

A precursor of the kraft process was used during the Napoleonic

Wars in England. The kraft process was invented by Carl F. Dahl in
1879 in Danzig, Prussia, Germany. U.S. Patent 296,935 was issued
in 1884, and a pulp mill using this technology began in Sweden in
1890.

The invention of the recovery boiler by G. H. Tomlinson in the

early 1930s was a milestone in the advancement of the kraft
process. It enabled the recovery and reuse of the inorganic
pulping chemicals such that a kraft mill is a nearly closed-cycle
process with respect to inorganic chemicals, apart from those
used in the bleaching process.

For this reason, in the 1940s, the kraft process superseded the
sulfite process as the dominant method for producing wood pulp.
 ❑ The kraft process (also known as kraft pulping or sulfate
process) is a process for conversion of wood into wood pulp,
which consists of almost pure cellulose fibres, the main
component of paper.
The kraft process involves treatment of wood chips with a hot
mixture of water, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and sodium sulfide
(Na2S), known as white liquor, that breaks the bonds that link
lignin, hemicellulose, and cellulose. The technology entails several
steps, both mechanical and chemical. It is the dominant method
for producing paper.
In some situations, the process has been controversial because
kraft plants can release odorous products and in some situations
produce substantial liquid wastes.
STEP 1:- IMPREGNATION

WOOD CHIPS

Common wood chips used in pulp production are 12–25

millimetres (0.47–0.98 in) long and 2–10 millimetres (0.079–
0.394 in) thick. The chips normally first enter the presteaming
where they are wetted and preheated with steam. Cavities
inside fresh wood chips are partly filled with liquid and partly
with air. The steam treatment causes the air to expand and
about 25% of the air to be expelled from the chips. The next
step is to saturate the chips with black and white liquor.
Air remaining in chips at the beginning of liquor impregnation
is trapped within the chips. The impregnation can be done
before or after the chips enter the digester and is normally
done below 100 °C (212 °F). The cooking liquors consist of a
mixture of white liquor, water in chips, condensed steam and
weak black liquor. In the impregnation, cooking liquor
penetrates into the capillary structure of the chips and low
temperature chemical reactions with the wood begin.
A good impregnation is important to get a homogeneous
cook and low rejects. About 40–60% of all alkali
consumption, in the continuous process, occurs in the
impregnation zone.

STEP 2 :- COOKING

The wood chips are then cooked in pressurized digesters.

Some digesters operate in a batch manner and some in a
continuous process. Digesters producing 1,000 tonnes or
more of pulp per day are common, with the largest
producing more than 3,500 tonnes per day. Typically,
delignification requires around two hours at 170 to 176 °C
(338 to 349 °F). Under digesting conditions, lignin and
hemicellulose degrade to give fragments that are soluble in
the strongly basic liquid.
The solid pulp (about 50% by weight of the dry wood chips) is
collected and washed. At this point the pulp is known as
brown stock because of its color. The combined liquids,
known as black liquor (because of its color), contain lignin
fragments, carbohydrates from the breakdown of
hemicellulose, sodium carbonate, sodium sulfate and other
inorganic salts.
 Net reaction in depolymerization of lignin
by SH− (Ar = aryl, R = alkyl groups).
One of the main chemical reactions that underpin the kraft
process is the scission of ether bonds by the nucleophilic
sulfide (S2−) or bisulfide (HS−) ions.

STEP 3 :- RECOVERY PROCESS

The excess black liquor contains about 15% solids and is
concentrated in a multiple effect evaporator. After the first
step the black liquor has about 20–30% solids. At this
concentration the rosin soap rises to the surface and is
skimmed off. The collected soap is further processed to tall
oil. Removal of the soap improves the evaporation operation
of the later effects.
The weak black liquor is further evaporated to 65% or even
80% solids ("heavy black liquor") and burned in the recovery
boiler to recover the inorganic chemicals for reuse in the
pulping process.
Higher solids in the concentrated black liquor increases the
energy and chemical efficiency of the recovery cycle, but also
gives higher viscosity and precipitation of solids (plugging and
fouling of equipment).
During combustion, sodium sulphate is reduced to sodium
sulphite by the organic carbon in the mixture:
• Na2SO4 + 2 C → Na2S + 2 CO2
This reaction is similar to thermochemical sulfate reduction
in geochemistry.
The molten salts ("smelt") from the recovery boiler are
dissolved in a process water known as "weak wash". This
process water, also known as "weak white liquor" is
composed of all liquors used to wash lime mud and green
liquor precipitates. The resulting solution of sodium
carbonate and sodium sulphite is known as "green liquor".
The green liquor's eponymous green colour arises from the
presence of colloidal iron sulphite.
This liquid is then mixed with calcium oxide, which becomes
calcium hydroxide in solution, to regenerate the white liquor
used in the pulping process through an equilibrium reaction.

(Na2S is shown since it is part of the green liquor, but does

not participate in the reaction):
• Na2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 ←→ 2 NaOH + CaCO3

Calcium carbonate precipitates from the white liquor and is

recovered and heated in a lime kiln where it is converted to
calcium oxide (lime).
• CaCO3 → CaO + CO2

Calcium oxide (lime) is reacted with water to regenerate the

calcium hydroxide used in Reaction 2:
• CaO + H2O → Ca(OH)2

The combination of reactions 1 through 4 form a closed cycle

with respect to sodium, sulphur and calcium and is the main
concept of the so-called recausticising process where sodium
carbonate is reacted to regenerate sodium hydroxide.
The recovery boiler also generates high pressure steam
which is fed to turbogenerators, reducing the steam pressure
for the mill use and generating electricity. A modern kraft
pulp mill is more than self-sufficient in its electrical
generation and normally will provide a net flow of energy
which can be used by an associated paper mill or sold to
neighbouring industries or communities through to the local
electrical grid.
Additionally, bark and wood residues are often burned in a
separate power boiler to generate steam.
 PADDY STRAW BOILER

Benefits of Rice Paddy Straw Fired Steam Boilers:

• Savings Benefit In Fuel Cost: Rice Paddy Straw is a

cheaper fuel in comparison to other fuel types and is
abundantly available in fertile belts of India i.e. Punjab,
Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh,
etc. With steam boiler operations using rice straw as
fuel, businesses can save huge costs for the operations.
• Low Capital Cost: The project cost of modification or
installation of new (or pre-owned) Rice Paddy Straw
Fired Boiler System is low. Low capital cost and benefit
of fuel price makes Rice Straw Fired Boiler System with
multifuel capabilities one of the favorable investment
for business.
• High Efficiency Of Rice Paddy Straw Fired Boiler
System: Rice Straw Fired Boiler System has high
 efficiency pertaining to the technology used in the
system and calorific value of the fuel.
• Government Initiatives for Rice Paddy Straw Disposal:
The challenges of farmers to dispose-off rice Paddy
straw/ stubble has initiated favorable response from
government for usage of rice straw and by-products.

STEP 4 :- BLOWING

The finished cooked wood chips are blown to a collection

tank called a blow tank that operates at atmospheric
pressure. This releases a lot of steam and volatiles. The
volatiles are condensed and collected; in the case of northern
softwoods this consists mainly of raw turpentine.

STEP 5 :-SCREENING

Screening of the pulp after pulping is a process whereby the

pulp is separated from large shives, knots, dirt and other
debris. The accept is the pulp. The material separated from
the pulp is called reject.
The screening section consists of different types of sieves
(screens) and centrifugal cleaning. The sieves are normally
set up in a multistage cascade operation because
considerable amounts of good fibres can go to the reject
stream when trying to achieve maximum purity in the accept
flow.
The fiber containing shives and knots are separated from the
rest of the reject and reprocessed either in a refiner or is sent
back to the digester. The content of knots is typically 0.5–
3.0% of the digester output, while the shives content is about
0.1–1.0%.

STEP 6 :- WASHING
The brownstock from the blowing goes to the washing stages
where the used cooking liquors are separated from the
cellulose fibers. Normally a pulp mill has 3-5 washing stages
in series.

Washing stages are also placed after oxygen delignification

and between the bleaching stages as well. Pulp washers use
countercurrent flow between the stages such that the pulp
moves in the opposite direction to the flow of washing
waters. Several processes are involved: thickening / dilution,
displacement and diffusion. The dilution factor is the
measure of the amount of water used in washing compared
with the theoretical amount required to displace the liquor
from the thickened pulp. Lower dilution factor reduces
energy consumption, while higher dilution factor normally
gives cleaner pulp.
Thorough washing of the pulp reduces the chemical oxygen
demand.
Several types of washing equipment are in use:
• Pressure diffusers
• Atmospheric diffusers
• Vacuum drum washers
• Drum displacers
• Wash presses

STEP 7 :- BLEACHING

In a modern mill, brownstock (cellulose fibers containing

approximately 5% residual lignin) produced by the pulping is
first washed to remove some of the dissolved organic
material and then further delignified by a variety of bleaching
stages.
In the case of a plant designed to produce pulp to make
brown sack paper or linerboard for boxes and packaging, the
pulp does not always need to be bleached to a high
brightness. Bleaching decreases the mass of pulp produced
by about 5%, decreases the strength of the fibers and adds to
the cost of manufacture.
 PROCESS CHEMICALS

Process chemicals are added to improve the production

process:
• Impregnation aids. Surfactants may be used to improve
impregnation of the wood chips with the cooking
liquors.
•
Anthraquinone is used as a digester additive. It works as
a redox catalyst by oxidizing cellulose and reducing
lignin. This protects the cellulose from degradation and
makes the lignin more water-soluble.
•
An emulsion breaker can be added in the soap
separation to speed up and improve the separation of
soap from the used cooking liquors by flocculation.
• Defoamers remove foam and speed up the production
process. Drainage of washing equipment is improved
and gives cleaner pulp.
• Dispersing agents, detackifiers and complexing agents
keep the system cleaner and reduce the need for
maintenance stops.
• Fixation agents fix finely dispersed potential deposits to
the fibers and thereby transport them out of the
process.
