TURNING WHEAT STRAW IN A SUSTAINABLE RAW MATERIAL FOR PAPER INDUSTRY Autori: Adrian Cătălin PuiţelData aparitiei: Aprilie / 2017 Revista: Environmental Engineering and Management Journal › Vol. 16 › Nr. 4 ISSN: 1843 - 3707 ![]() Deforestation is a vital problem at global level, being one of the main causes of climate change. Volume of wood used in construction, furniture and pulp and paper industries increases year by year. Stopping the decrease of forests surface is of imperative importance from the point of view of sustainability. Pulp and paper industry faces with severe lack of pulpwood and for this reason other raw materials are taken into consideration. Chemical pulp can be partially replaced with recovered paper but low paper grades can be produced only. In addition, recovered paper is collected in limited quantities, which do not assure the large requirements of paper industry. For these reasons, obtaining of chemical pulp from nonwood raw materials is of particular importance. |
