Ce projet vise à développer des applications pour les filaments de celluloses (FC) de Kruger Biomatériaux (KBI) comme fibres de renforcement au sein de polymères thermoplastiques (PTP), thermodurcissables (PTD) et polyuréthane (PU. Leurs bonnes propriétés mécaniques, faible densité, faible abrasivité et biodégradabilité en font une alternative verte de choix pour remplacer les fibres synthétiques comme, […]

The research proposal introduced is a development of a systematic method for evaluating the performance of Kraft process equipments from the point of 'view of energy, water and chemicals, using new and adapted key performance indicators. The objectives are (i) to develop new Key Performance Indicators adapted to the Kraft process operations and equipments to […]

Integrated lignin biorefineries present opportunities to increase the profitability of Kraft pulp mills through the diversification of product portfolio and improved sustainability. The purpose of this work is to develop optimized lignin biorefinery designs, which would be integrated into a Kraft pulp mill. A methodology combining process simulation, analysis and synthesis is proposed to achieve […]
