Biopolymer-based solutions are a key innovation for pulp mills seeking to enhance product strength and develop high yield prodcuts while maintaining sustainable and efficienct operations. Unlike traditional synthetic strength additives, biopolymers are derived from renewable resources, aligning with the industry’s efforts to adopt eco-friendly practices and comply with increasing regulatory pressures.
Properties and Benefits
Banmark’s biopolymers are specifically tailored to address the challenges faced in pulp-based paper production. These challenges often include limitations in fiber bonding, high refining energy consumption, and the need to use large quantities of raw materials to avoid compromising mechanical strength. The advanced properties of biopolymers deliver the following key benefits for pulp mills:
- Improved fiber bonding, enhancing tensile, burst, and compression strength for core pulp-based applications.
- Reduced energy consumption, lowering refining energy needs for cost-efficient, sustainable operations.
- Biodegradable and sustainable formulations, supporting environmental goals and regulatory compliance.
- Higher strength and improved yield, enabling the production of superior-quality pulp with enhanced durability and performance.
These benefits translate into higher strength with the potential for lower wood consumption, enhanced pulp properties. In certain instances, the focus is on developing high-yield grades tailored to meet the demands of challenging markets.
Applications in Pulp Mill Operations
The main application is to produce high-strength pulp with high yield, aimed at achieving superior-quality pulp for the board, paper, and tissue industry. This approach focuses on meeting the requirements of demanding customers who prioritize exceptional pulp quality to support advanced end products. It is designed for industries ready to innovate and develop higher standards, rather than catering to all markets. By targeting these specific needs, the solution delivers value to customers with stringent quality expectations.
