MoRe work with non-wood cellulose
2012-12-18 Now and then during the past years, MoRe Research in Örnsköldsvik in Sweden, has been working with non-wood cellulose as fibre raw material. Lately, the interest in this kind of raw material has increased.
With its pilot digester, MoRe has possibilities to evaluate
fibre raw materials such as straw, bamboo and elephant grass for pulp,
paper and board as well as for other products, according to the company.
Certain types of non-wood fibre effects dewatering a lot while others
have a good runnability on a paper machine. By tests in MoRe:s pilots it
is possible to optimize the amount of non-wood fibre in the mix,
focusing on quality and cost in order to use the right raw material for
the end product.MoRe have pilot equipment all the way from cooking to finished products. This means that MoRe can do complete evaluations of different fibre raw materials' suitability and also suggest the necessary process conditions for different end products.
