Pulping and Papermaking of Non-wood Plant Fibres presents the latest technologies associated with the papermaking process. With chapters specific to each non-wood species; the book provides step-by-step guidance on processes such as pulping; bleaching; blending and beating. Non-wood fibers are practical for pulp and paper production due to their chemical content of cellulose; hemicellulose and lignin percentages. Beginning with a general overview of non-wood fibers in the papermaking process; chapters then take a deep dive into different raw materials and their processes; including bamboo; corn stalk; pineapple leaves and sugarcane. This book is an essential resource for researchers; scientists and industry specialists.
