Course description |
In this course, students will learn about raw materials, types, preparations of pulp and how to produce a paper, properties and structure of paper. This course consists of two parts. One and another are to understand preparation of pulp, and preparation and propeties of paper, respectively. This course is regarded as one of courses explaining application of biomass. |
Expected Learning |
The learner efficiently learns scientific knowledge about pulp and paper as a representative of the material from plant biomass. Corresponding criteria in the Diploma Policy: See the Curriculum maps. (URL: https://www.tuat.ac.jp/campuslife_career/campuslife/policy/ ) |
Course schedule |
1:Production and consumption of pulp and paper, history of its technology 2:Raw materials for paper(Wood and non-wood, Morphology and chemical content of wood fiber, quality of pulp) 3:Preparation of pulp Ⅰ(Production and its principle of chemical pulp -Chemistry for kraft cooking and control of cooking) 4:Preparation of pulpⅡ(Chemical recovery system for kraft cooking, concentration and burning of black liquor,evaluation of cooking degree) 5:Preparation of pulp Ⅲ(Production and its principle of mechanical pulp -groundwood pulp, refiner groundwood pulp) 6:Preparation of pulp IV (Production and its principle of mechanical pulp -thermomechanical pulp, chemithermo mechanical pulp, semichemical pulp -) 7:Bleaching of pulp (Bleaching principle of pulp, Bleaching of high yield pulp and recycled pulp, Bleaching of chemical pulp) 8:Stock preparation(Disintegration and beating of pulp) 9:Process for preparation of paper(Fourdrinier paper machine, Cylinder paper machine) 10:Wet end chemistry (Principle of wet end chemistry, additives for wet end) 11:Coating of paper(Pigment, coating method) 12:Structure property of paper(Structure and its heterogeneity, Influence of water on its structure) 13:Optical property of paper(Indication of functional property, Factor influencing optical property) 14:Mechanical property of paper(Tensile property, Tear property etc.) 15: test-day. |
Prerequisites |
The learner is interesting in pulp and paper, bio-based material. In addition to 30 hours that students spend in the class, students are ecommended to prepare for and revise the lectures, spending the standard amount of time as specified by the University and using the lecture handouts as well as the references specified below. |
