In many regions the residues are burned, while many agricultural residues happen to be ideal for making paper. This should result in moderate cooking chemical charges and a short cooking cycle. 2017;254. The present study focused in evaluation the characteristics of Sudanese Abelmoschus esculentus okra stalks in terms of fiber morphological properties, chemical composition, Soda-AQ pulping and papermaking characteristics and therefore indicate their suitability for paper pulp production. #pulpandpaper #pulpandpaperindustry #indigenouscanada, Resolute, Unifor announce ratification of collective agreement with pulp and paper mills https://www.pulpandpapercanada.com/?p=92493 via @pulppapercanada. All cooking conditions were kept constant (the pulping variables time to reach maximum temperature, time at maximum temperature, maximum temperature, the concentration of AQ on oven dry okra stalks and Liquor to okra stalks ratio, as shown in (Table1) with chemical charges as NaOH were varied between 15 to 21%. We use MailChimp as our marketing platform. Anthraquinone (AQ) is a powerful redox-catalyst in alkaline pulping especially when non-woody raw material is cooked. (In Russian). The chemistry of delignification, general concept part 1. Willamette Falls Paper uses wheat straw agricultural waste to produce high-quality papermaking fibres as an alternative to field burning. Non woody plants and agricultural residues as flax, cotton, bamboo and cereal straw were used extensively in pulp and paper production. J Biobased Mater Bioenergy. PubMedGoogle Scholar.

Stalk fiber of okra is characterized by high lignin, low -cellulose, and shorter fiber length, while bast fiber is characterized by low lignin, high -cellulose, and longer fiber length [12] the pulps obtained from okra stalks is good enough [13] with a high carbohydrates content (65.0%), low lignin contents (20.5%) and similar to chemical components of non-woody plants indicating okra stalks as promising source for papermaking utilization, in addition to that okra fibers can be applied as reinforcement in polymer composites [14,15,16]. The Anthraquinone (AQ) acts as redox catalyst during alkaline pulping, reduce aldehyde end groups of the carbohydrates, forming carboxylic acid, inhibits the alkaline depolymerization results in an increased yield.

New pulping technology has been developed in response. Okra is important food supplement in tropical regions and has nutritional and medicinal values, it is used traditionally in treating diseases as diabetes, pyretic syndrome, and spasmodic [7,8,9,10,11]. As Obolenskaya, [21] mentioned that the kurschner-Hoffer values are usually 4-7% higher than alfa-cellulose.

The hot water extractives from okra stalks was (4.1%), cold water (0.4) ethanol/ cyclohexane (1.1), ethanol extractives (1.2%) and 1% NaOH (27.6%) were rather high due to the presence of many soluble polysaccharides and phenolic compounds. The use of 0.1% AQ enhanced the delignification in the three trials applied. Plant Science Today. Leaves and steams were separated manually, and then stalks were chopped into 2-4cm length.

Springer Nature remains neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. A high hot water soluble content also indicated a higher accessibility of the cell wall components to pulping liquor. According to the suggestions of other authors, the operation conditions used during soda-anthraquinone cooking of okra were selected, as follows: maximum temperature 165C0, time to maximum temperature 60min, time at temperature 120min, anthraquinone concentration 0.1% and liquid/okra stalks ratio was 5.

Chimia Lemnului din R.P.R. Due to relatively low screened yield and good papermaking properties, it is advisable to blend these pulps with other high yield pulps. The strength properties of three trails pulps (Table 4) indicated in general the slight difference in strength properties with relatively higher of 21% soda-AQ pulp properties. OkraA Versatile Vegetable Crop. 5-3 m tall and 2-2.5cm in diameter. 2013;50(3):38792. 2018;8:413 https://doi.org/10.1007/s13399-018-0306-x. Although there is still controversy in accepting morphological data in predicting the properties of the pulp, the multi-regression technique seems undoubtedly valuable in showing which morphological characters are important in the pulp properties. The lab work done by students Rashid Hamid Edris, Hadiel Ibrahim Ahmed and Fakhreldin Alfadil Rahmatallah. on the other hand rejects were increased to 7% when 15% NaOH was applied with very low screened yield 19%.The pulps produced from okra soda-AQ are suitable for production of printing and writing papers and it is advisable to use them in blending due to good papermaking properties. Abelmoschus esculentus okra stalks, fiber structure under microscope. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) a popular crop and vegetable.

Willamette Falls Paper has reconfigured the mill to dedicate one machine to brown grades and two machines to manufacture both high-bright coated and uncoated legacy grades. The family of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is Malvaceae, okra is one of the oldest cultivated crops, it was recorded by the Egyptians in 1216A.D., however there was strong evidence, okra was cultivated earlier than that in Ethiopia, some other reports considered India as center of origin [3,4,5,6].The estimated annual production in the world was about 4.8 million tons; and the share of India (4.528 million tons), Nigeria (0.826 million tons), Sudan (0.249 million tons), Pakistan (0.116 million tons), Cote dIviore (0.115 million tons), Egypt (0.100 million tons) and Iraq (0.153 million tons) [7]. This should increase the alkali consumption and may cause some problems at waste liquor recovery [29]. The use of soda-AQ pulping accelerated the delignification and beating rate, increased yield and viscosity and gave pulp with superior properties and highest alkali charge. http://ow.ly/Rj7450Jrwk4 Farmers, in consultation with agronomists and soil scientists with specific regional knowledge, can determine the amount of straw residue that must be left on the land and that which could be accessed for commercial purposes in a manner that does not undermine soil quality, including soil carbon storage. Thus hemicelluloses serve as a matrix binding substance between fibers in a pulp. Initially, Willamette Falls Paper will be producing natural kraft paper using a minimum of 30 per cent agricultural fibres in this case, wheat straw. Authors grateful for the Cellulose Chemistry and Technology Research Unit- National Centre for Research (NCR) Khartoum, Sudan for using of research facilities. The cellulose (Kurschner-Hoffer) was (48.5%) which meant good pulp yields at suitable alkali utilization. The brightness for the three cooks were more or less the same. The air dry samples of core and bark of okra were manually separated and chopped to 35cm length. Tong PS. All the conditions were constant except for soda concentration as (NaOH, 15-21% on oven dry weight of okra stalks) for optimization of cooking and the concentration of alkali was the most effective variable.

Representative sample of a portion prepared chips for pulping trails was ground in a star mill and the 40X60 mesh fraction was used for chemical analysis according to TAPPI standards and Obolenskaya [23]. However okra Abelmoschus esculentus stalks could be one of promising non woody plants in paper production [1, 2]. The cellulose (Kurschner-Hoffer) was (48.5%) The lignin content was (15.3%) which was relatively moderate. Chemical, morphological, and technological properties of cultivated Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) fibers. The screened yield increase with increase of chemical dose applied while the rejects decrease.
