What is Paper?
The material which is created by fringing and bonding fibers of herbal materials such as wood, hay, moss, etc, and which is suitable for printing is called paper.
Paper has played a major role in expansion and development of science and culture; it was the inauguration of the ancient money in commercial activities such as purchase, exchange, etc. Ease of writing, handling and storing provided by paper has guaranteed easy access of science and knowledge at any place to everywhere around the world in a very short time, becoming one of the major instruments of today's civilized culture.
How is Paper Produced?
Factories producing papers can be divided into two groups as Wood Pulp Factoriesand Paper Factories. However, paper factories are established as integrated facilities today, performing both paper and pulp production.
01
The trees, which are the raw material of the paper, are cut down and turned into logs.
02
Dimensions of the raw material are reduced to 50x50 mm.
03
Debarked logs are firstly chopped into small parts. Then such logs are turned into pulp upon performance of chemical firing and grinding application.
04
The production process is initiated after the formula, corresponding to the product ordered, is defined on the computer system by the authorized personnel in the plants.
05
After the first instruction, aggregate, cement and water stocked in separate divisions are weighed at the same time.
06
The temperature of the mix in the kiln increases up to 1500-16000C, the mix rotating and moving forward is transformed into black round pieces in size of a walnut.
07
Once the clinker is formed, it must be cooled down to 1000C.
08
Once the clinker is formed, it must be cooled down to 1000C.
Recycled Paper
Waste paper is considered as raw material in the field of recycling. Any types of paper and cartons, which have completed their function in any field of use, are considered as waste paper.
Paper is the easiest material to be recycled. Paper and packing wastes constitute a major part of the waste chain. Recycling of paper has important advantages with respect to environment.
Treated and refined pulp is used either alone or by being mixed with the pure wood fiber after it is made available for production based on its intended production/use.
