The article focuses on advanced printing technologies including ultraviolet (UV) offset and liquid toner which results in versatile and energy efficient solutions. It presents an scientific approach that concludes ultrasound (US) cavitation and liquid jets results in improved ink detachment and fragmentation.

The article focuses on the chemistry of strength and its benefits for the production of board and tissue. It mentions that strength aid depends on various factors including program cost, effect on machine runnability and productivity, and product availability. It also discusses several substances which includes carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), Cationic glyoxalated polyacrylamide (GPAM) and diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride (DADMAC).

The article presents several ideas for the future of the tissue manufacturing industry in Europe that was presented at the Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI). It talks about Deep Eutetic Solvents (DES) that produce pulp at low temperatures. DryPulp and cureforming allow paper production with no water. Supercritical carbon dioxide can dry pulp and paper in the absence of steam and heat.

The article focuses on the concept of Ecowirl m, components, functions and its applications. It informs that the new innovation is introduced for mixing and dosing technology which deals with the generation of vortex systems. It also discusses the technical idea of the new technology that enables vortex guiding surfaces with high load capacity.

The article focuses on Fazar stock preparation system presented by pulp and paper producer, Aikawa Fiber Technologies (AFT) that maximizes yield from fluctuating quantity of waste paper furnish to quality fiber. It presents the views of Chris Pedder, mill manager and director of AFT, related to increased production of high quality packaging grades for global brands.

The article offers information on the emerging tissue market in China and also presents statistical data that justifies it. It presents a comparative study which shows that there is steady growth in global demand for tissues than previous years which results in increased growth rate of China. It also discusses the impact of increased global demand of tissues on international markets.

The article offers information on tissue consumption in Russia and Ukraine. It discusses the increase in the demand for tissue quality in the two countries, the rise in the popularity of two- and three-ply toilet tissue, and the use of recycled fibre that is regarded a cheap alternative. It also looks into the growth in the interest in printing and embossing, point-to-point embossing for toilet tissue, and the domination of coreless tissue rolls in rural regions of the countries.

The article discusses the use of an online causticizing chemical analyzer and optimization control by Smurfit Kappa Nettingsdorfer of Austria. It states that the product was supplied by Metso Custicizing Analyzer with various aims including improved strength of white liquor, lowering its consumption and energy savings. It further presents views of production manager Rudolf Bito on the need of steam energy saving in evaporators.

The article offers information on the current crucial situation of pulp and paper industries in Western Europe. It suggests several measures that can put Western Europe again in the competition which includes introducing new tissue machines, replacement of mixing tanks, agitator and discharge pumps and considering production lines of the company.

The article offers information on the technological innovations for the production of superior quality tissue products. It presents the views of Erkan Tirnavali, general manager of tissue producer company, Tül Kagit in Turkey related to several topics including paper quality control, development of competitive grades and identification of paper quality.

The article focuses on the drying technology for tissue industry that results in energy efficient production by lowering the operating cost. It discusses that two components for energy efficient production which includes Prime Dry Steel Yankee must efficiently use energy, higher evaporation rates und operational security as well as low operating costs and steam must be generated by re-evaporating system.

The article offers information on the 4th Darmstadt Paper Chemistry Colloquium to be held at the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany on May 20, 2016.

The article reports on the publication of 11 fact sheets by the global initiative Two Sides to address the environmental misconceptions on digital communication. The published fact sheets include "Harvesting trees through sustainable forestry," "Paper is one of the few truly sustainable products" and "The paper industry uses a lot of renewable energy." They address issues such as the environmental impact of electronic communication and the sustainability of paper-based printed products.
