摘要:
Novel multi-layer paper and tissue products are provided, which possess strength, softness and absorbency. The products comprise either at least two foam deposited paper layers, wherein the foams have different air contents therein, or foam and water deposited layers. The layers can be deposited at about identical feed pressures from a single headbox while still possessing differing tensile strength ratios. Novel processes for forming such products are also provided.

A single or multi-ply tissue product includes at least one foam-formed ply incorporating at least about 100 ppm of forming-loop-incorporated surfactant, the ply includes from at least about 50% by weight to about 80% by weight of relatively short, high softness cellulosic fiber formed by chemical pulping of hardwood. The fibers have a weight average fiber length of between about 0.5 to about 2.2 mm, a coarseness of about 7 to about 14 mg of fiber per 100 m of fiber length (mg/100 m). The ply includes from at least about 20% by weight to about 50% by weight of relatively long strength-enhancing cellulosic fiber chosen from chemically pulped softwood fiber and chemi-thermo-mechanically pulped softwood fiber and mixtures thereof. The strength-enhancing cellulosic fiber have a weight average fiber length of about 2 to about 4 mm, a coarseness of about 14 to about 28 mg/100 m. Optionally, up to about 30% by weight of bulk-enhancing fibers having a three-dimensional anfractuous character may be provided. The ply is embossed to an emboss depth of at least about 0.020 inch, the percent loss in total dry breaking tensile strength upon embossing of the tissue being no more than about 80% of the percent loss in total dry breaking tensile strength upon embossing plies of a comparable conventional water formed tissue. The ply includes a basis weight of from about 4 to about 20 pound per 3,000 sq. ft. ream.

The present invention is an improved 7,3-broken twill, TAD fabric for use in the formation of a paper web. The present invention is also a process of using this fabric to produce a paper product having high bulk and absorbency. Finally, the present invention is the paper product produced in a TAD process using this fabric.
摘要:
Energy is stored in slack demand periods by charging a plurality of underground reservoirs with air to the same peak storage pressure, during peak demand periods throttling the air from one storage reservoir into a gas turbine system at a constant inlet pressure until the air pressure in the reservoir falls to said constant inlet pressure, thereupon permitting air in a second reservoir to flow into said gas turbine system while drawing air from the first reservoir through a variable geometry air ejector and adjusting said variable geometry air ejector, said air flow being essentially at the constant inlet pressure of the gas turbine system.

Controlling the velocity of a jet of foamed furnish leaving the slice of a pressurized headbox of a paper or a tissue making machine by measuring the density and pressure of a flow of foamed furnish provided by a pump to estimate an atmospheric pressure air content, measuring the pressure of the foamed furnish in the headbox, using the estimated atmospheric pressure air content and the measured pressure in the headbox to estimate the current velocity of said jet of foamed furnish, comparing the estimated current velocity with a target velocity and controlling the pump to move the estimated and target velocities closer to each other. An alternate embodiment controls jet velocity on the basis of comparing estimated and target headbox pressures.
摘要:
An internal combustion reciprocating engine is operable as a compressor during slack demand periods utilizing excess power from a power grid to charge air into an air storage reservoir and as an expander during peak demand periods to feed power into the power grid utilizing air obtained from the air storage reservoir together with combustible fuel. Preferably the internal combustion reciprocating engine is operated at high pressure and a low pressure turbine and compressor are also employed for air compression and power generation.

A microwave heater and/or dryer has a nonlinear or curvilinear relative slot profile geometry. In one embodiment, the microwave dryer has at least one adjustable field modifier making it possible to change the geometry of the heater or dryer when drying different webs. In another embodiment, the microwave dryer provides more uniform drying of a web when the field modifier is adjusted in response to a sensed condition of the web. Finally, a method of microwave heating and/or drying a web achieves a uniform heating and/or drying profile.
