Description: This book is concerned with running a paper machine to achieve the best possible performance.
The book is divided into six parts. The first five of these deal with separate sections of the Fourdrinier paper machine: 1, the wet-end flow system; 2, screens and cleaners; 3, the wire part; 4, the press section; and 5, the dryers and calenders. Each of these parts is divided into three main chapters.
The first chapter describes theoretical aspects of the process.
The second chapter of each part concerns operational aspects of the paper machine and details the various factors which can affect the process.
The third chapter of each part is concerned entirely with practical aspects of paper machine operation.
Part 6 is concerned with methods of monitoring the performance of paper machines.
