the objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between 16 process variables of the cmp tower chemi-mechanical pulp, and 17 newsprint quality properties at mazandaran wood and paper industries and to develop predictive models. after preparation of suitable data series considering the time needed for pulp to paper, the relations between process dependant and newsprint independen...

There is a dearth of scholarly analysis and critique of the Australian newsprint media's role in the medicalization of child behaviour. To begin to redress this lack this paper analyses newsprint media's use of metaphors that re/describe and construct realities of ADHD with a medicalizing effect. The interdisciplinary team used the FactivaTM database to locate and review 453 articles published ...

The fermentation characteristics of six specific types of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) were examined, with an emphasis on properties that are needed when designing plug-flow type anaerobic bioreactors. More specifically, the decomposition patterns of a vegetable (cabbage), fruits (banana and citrus peels), fresh leaf litter of bamboo and teak leaves, and paper (newsprin...

Most existing elasticity estimates for the pulp and paper industry are based on aggregate products (e.g., total paper, paperboard, or paper except newsprint). Using United States data, we present and evaluate econometric output supply models for four relatively disaggregated paper products: newsprint paper (NP), printing/writing paper (PWP), tissue paper (TP), and packaging paper (PP). Sample p...
