Book editor: Panu Tikka, Professor, SciTech Service Oy Ltd, Espoo, Finland

Volume 6 Part 2 of the Papermaking Science and Technology Series, published by the Finnish Paper Engineers’ Association. The book covers kraft pulp mill technology from fibre line spent liquor — black liquor — to the recovered active cooking chemical — white liquor — and energy in the form of steam and electricity. The modern “megaton”- scale technologies of evaporation, recovery and bark boilers, re-causticising, lime re-burning and tall oil by-products are described in detail and in a process technology textbook manner. Pulp mills’ role as a producer of renewable forest-based energy is significant and growing and this trend is also captured in this book. 

The Papermaking Science and Technology series is also an excellent textbook resource for universities and colleges.   This series is ideal to train new employees at your company or as a reference guide for your experienced workforce.
