Scholarship Description: One objective of the project addresses energy and environmental concerns related to kraft pulping industry operations. Improvement in the kraft pulping delignification rate can result in significant savings in pulping time, chemicals and energy used. Reduction in pulping time contributes to an increase in the digester throughput and savings in pulping energy which provide economic benefits. Reduction in energy consumption during pulping implies that less coal or furnace oil will be fired in the power boiler resulting in lower greenhouse gas emissions.
