Modeling the influence of forming fabric structure on vacuum box dewatering

open access: yesTAPPI Journal, 2017
This investigation used numerical models to describe forming section sheet dewatering at the high vacuum suction boxes. Three different fabric structures were examined with numerical models for single-phase flow of air and for two-phase flow of air and water. This was done to evaluate how forming fabric structure influences sheet dewatering.

Review of factors affecting the release of water from cellulosic fibers during paper manufacture

open access: yesBioResources, 2007
The ease with which water is released from cellulosic fiber material during the manufacturing of paper can affect both the production rate and the consumption of energy during the manufacturing process.

The influence of solid/liquid separation techniques on the sugar yield in two-step dilute acid hydrolysis of softwood followed by enzymatic hydrolysis

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2009
Background Two-step dilute acid hydrolysis of softwood, either as a stand-alone process or as pretreatment before enzymatic hydrolysis, is considered to result in higher sugar yields than one-step acid hydrolysis.

Electrokinetics and Vacuum Combined Dewatering of Oil Sand Tailings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
One of the challenges faced by the oil sand industry is the dewatering of mature fine oil sands tailings (MFT) due to the low permeability. Vacuum pressure or electrokinetic (EK) dewatering is effective to meet this objective. This research was focused on the experimental study and analytical modelling to explore the influence of combined vacuum and EK

Role of external fibrillation in pulp and paper properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The purpose of this thesis was to clarify the role of external fibrillation in pulp and paper properties. If the degree of external fibrillation could be controlled and the role of external fibrillation were known, this would provide better possibilities

Modeling of Heat and Mass Transfer in a TEC-Driven Lyophilizer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Dewatering of wet waste during space exploration missions is important for crew safety as it stabilizes the waste. It may also be used to recover water and serve as a preconditioning step for waste compaction.
