Focus on 'green' production
The lines at Jingui process eucalyptus fiber from plantations. A remarkable aspect is that the mechanical pulping lines operate totally free of silicates within the bleaching process. Effluents are recovered to reduce the environmental impact. White liquor is retrieved in the chemical recovery cycle and reused in the mechanical pulping process to a very large extent, resulting in a significant reduction in operating costs.
