IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, 2009Co-Authors: Arttu Lehto, Jussi Nummela, Leena Ukkonen, Lauri Sydanheimo, Markku KivikoskiAbstract:Radio frequency identification (RFID) systems for the Paper Industry is an emerging research topic due to the need for an automated identification system for the Paper Industry which would carry on the identification codes of Paper and board reels throughout their life cycle. This Paper discusses the application of passive ultra-high frequency (UHF) RFID systems to the Paper Industry. Challenges, benefits, and the application environment of using passive UHF RFID systems in the Paper Industry are presented and discussed. The major challenges are development of globally operable tag antenna designs and integration of reader units and reader antennas to Paper handling machinery. To confront and solve these challenges, this Paper presents novel tag antenna designs for Paper and board reel identification and proposes solutions for reader and reader antenna integration to Paper handling machinery. In addition, the identification locations within the Paper reel supply chain and the effects of RFID systems to supply chain visibility are presented and discussed.

Exploiting passive UHF RFID in Paper Industry - Case study: End user
2008 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering, 2008Co-Authors: Jussi Nummela, Leena Ukkonen, Lauri Sydenheimo, Markku KivikoskiAbstract:Radio frequency identification (RFID) systems for Paper Industry are an emerging research topic due to the need for automated identification system for Paper Industry which would carry on the identification codes of Paper and board reels throughout their life cycle, from Paper mill to end user. End userspsila needs play on important part in exploiting RFID in Paper Industry, because they set the requirements and specifications for the reels they order from manufacturers. This Paper discusses the application of passive ultra-high frequency (UHF) RFID systems to Paper Industry, concentrating especially in the end users point of view. The supply chain of Paper reels is presented and identification locations in supply chain are discussed. In addition the case study of printing house as end user of the Paper reel was performed including measurements in application environment, and results are presented in this Paper.

deployment of trichoderma harzianum wl1 laccase in pulp bleaching and Paper Industry effluent treatment
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2010Co-Authors: Sudharsan Sadhasivam, S Savitha, Krishnasamy SwaminathanAbstract:Abstract The ability of Trichoderma harzianum WL1 crude laccase and the fungal system for the biobleaching of wastePaper pulp and treatment of Paper Industry effluent was investigated. Three different modes of treatment, enzyme, enzyme-alkali and enzyme-EDED were employed for the bleaching of wastePaper pulp. The process parameters such as treatment period, pulp consistency, temperature and enzyme charge had a great influence on the quality of Paper pulp. The Paper Industry effluent was subjected to eight different treatments via. aerobic, anaerobic, fungal and combination of these treatments. Fungal followed by anaerobic treatment was found to be effective in Paper Industry effluent treatment.

Biorefinery in the Pulp and Paper Industry
Biorefinery in the Pulp and Paper Industry, 2013Co-Authors: Pratima BajpaiAbstract:The traditional pulp and Paper producers are facing new competitors in tropical and subtropical regions who use the latest and largest installed technologies, and also have wood and labor cost advantages. Due to the increasing global competition, the forest products prices will continue to decrease. To remain viable, the traditional producers need to increase revenue by producing bioenergy and biomaterials in addition to wood, pulp, and Paper products. In this so-called Integrated Products Biorefinery, all product lines are highly integrated and energy efficient. Integrated Products Biorefineries present the forest products Industry with a unique opportunity to increase revenues and improve environmental sustainability. Integrated Products Biorefinery technologies will allow Industry to manufacture high-value chemicals, fuels, and/or electric power while continuing to produce traditional wood, pulp, and Paper products. The Industry already controls much of the raw material and infrastructure necessary to create Integrated Products Biorefineries, and Agenda 2020 partnerships are speeding development of the key enabling technologies. Once fully developed and commercialized, these technologies will produce enormous energy and environmental benefits for the Industry and the nation. Biorefinery in the Pulp and Paper Industry presents the biorefining concept, the opportunities for the pulp and Paper Industry, and describes and discusses emerging biorefinery process options. This book also highlights the environmental impact and the complex and ambiguous decision-making challenges that mills will face when considering implementing the biorefinery. - Provides up-to-date and authoritative information, citing pertinent research, on this timely and important topic - Covers in great depth the biorefining concept, opportunities for the pulp and Paper Industry, and emerging biorefinery process options - Highlights the environmental impact and the complex and ambiguous decision-making challenges that mills will face when considering implementing the biorefinery. © 2013 Elsevier Inc.

application of enzymes in the pulp and Paper Industry
Biotechnology Progress, 1999Co-Authors: Pratima BajpaiAbstract:The pulp and Paper Industry processes huge quantities of lignocellulosic biomass every year. The technology for pulp manufacture is highly diverse, and numerous opportunities exist for the application of microbial enzymes. Historically, enzymes have found some uses in the Paper Industry, but these have been mainly confined to areas such as modifications of raw starch. However, a wide range of applications in the pulp and Paper Industry have now been identified. The use of enzymes in the pulp and Paper Industry has grown rapidly since the mid 1980s. While many applications of enzymes in the pulp and Paper Industry are still in the research and development stage, several applications have found their way into the mills in an unprecedented short period of time. Currently the most important application of enzymes is in the prebleaching of kraft pulp. Xylanase enzymes have been found to be most effective for that purpose. Xylanase prebleaching technology is now in use at several mills worldwide. This technology has been successfully transferred to full industrial scale in just a few years. The enzymatic pitch control method using lipase was put into practice in a large-scale Paper-making process as a routine operation in the early 1990s and was the first case in the world in which an enzyme was successfully applied in the actual Paper-making process. Improvement of pulp drainage with enzymes is practiced routinely at mill scale. Enzymatic deinking has also been successfully applied during mill trials and can be expected to expand in application as increasing amounts of newsprint must be deinked and recycled. The University of Georgia has recently opened a pilot plant for deinking of recycled Paper. Pulp bleaching with a laccase mediator system has reached pilot plant stage and is expected to be commercialized soon. Enzymatic debarking, enzymatic beating, and reduction of vessel picking with enzymes are still in the R&D stage but hold great promise for reducing energy. Other enzymatic applications, i.e., removal of shives and slime, retting of flax fibers, and selective removal of xylan, are also expected to have a profound impact on the future technology of the pulp and Paper-making process.
