Kraft Pulping Liquor Chemistry

Online Course Description:
Kraft pulping is a process which uses chemicals to convert wood chips into individual fibers to make paper or other cellulose-based products. There are a number of chemical processes for pulping wood, but the kraft process is by far the most prevalent. One reason for this is that the chemicals in the cooking liquor can be recovered, recycled, and used again. This module will cover the chemistry of kraft cooking, the testing of the cooking liquor, and the process for reclaiming the active cooking chemicals.
