Handbook For Pulp and Paper Technologists (The SMOOK Book), Fourth Edition

The Handbook For Pulp and Paper Technologists (The SMOOK Book), is by far the best-selling text to introduce the entire technology of pulp and paper manufacture. The major objective of the fourth edition was to produce a readable, up-to-date, comprehensive textbook. Chapters have been altered materially to reflect the latest technology and the current state of the North American industry. The most significant changes occur in the areas of Wood and Chip Handling (Chapter 3), Mechanical Pulping (Chapter 5), Recycled Fiber (Chapter 14), Non-fibrous Additives (Chapter 15) and Surface Treatments (Chapter 18). Hundreds of illustrations, charts and tables help the reader grasp the concepts being presented.
