Nickel magazine, October 2002 -- Carbon steel will likely be phased out completely from the alkaline sections of paper-making plants known in the industry as sulphate kraft mills. Replacing it will be a wide range of nickel stainless steels that offer corrosion resistance and therefore longer life.
This is just one of the predictions to be found in Stainless Steels and Specialty Alloys for Modern Pulp and Paper Mills, NiDI Reference Book Series No. 11025. The publication is now available free of charge from the Nickel Development Institute.
The publication summarizes the composition and properties of the common nickel-containing alloys used in the industry and describes their unique characteristics. It also details the use of these alloys in digesters, brown stock washing, chemical recovery, tall oil, air quality control, as well as the sulphite process, pulping, waste paper recycling, bleaching, stock preparation, paper machines, suction rolls and fasteners. Separate chapters are devoted to welding, abrasion and corrosion.
Thirteen knowledgeable industry materials specialists: Arthur Tuthill, Dick Avery, Andrew Garner, Angela Wensley, Bruno Pannese, David Bennett, Max D. Moskal, Craig Reid, Chris Thompson, Donald Bardsely, William Miller, Paul Glogowski and Robert Charlton contributed chapters to this 150-page book. It was prepared by a task force of the Metals Subcommittee of the Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry (TAPPI) and was reviewed by a group of international experts. NiDI consultant Arthur Tuthill played a pivotal role as chairman of the Task Force.
The publication is available here as a small (1.8
MB) digital file (keyword-searchable, portable document format) or as a printed edition.
