Abstract

The production of paper consumes high quantities of energy, chemicals and wood pulp. Consequently, the paper production industry produces high environmental emission levels mainly as carbon dioxide due to energy consumption, or solid waste streams which include wastewater treatment sludges, lime mud, lime slaker grits, green liquor dregs, boiler and furnace ash, scrubber sludges and wood processing residuals. In terms of volume, most solids or liquids are those from the treatment of effluents, although waste from wood is also produced in large quantities. Wastewater treatment plant residuals are the largest volume residual waste stream generated by the pulp and paper industry. The general background of waste management in pulp and paper industry are presented.
