ABSTRACK Optical Brightenic Agent (OBA) is a compound that can provide a light effect on an object exposed to light, so that the object will be whiter and more radiant. The utilization of OBA in the paper industry is used as an auxiliary material in achieving the optical properties of paper in accordance with the specified standards. OBA consists of three types, namely disulpho, tetrasulpho, a…
White water system is a system that serves to take back fines and fillers that escape and reduce the need for clean water usage in the paper machine. Save all is a tool to filter and separate solid fractions such as fine fibers and fillers using sweetener stock, namely short fiber or virgin pulp, which functions to capture fiber, fines and chemicals to separate from white water. The purpose of …
The broke system is a system for reprocessing rejected or defective pulp stock that is collected in the broke tower tank. In the broke tower, stock from wet broke and dry broke (pulp rejects) is utilized to the maximum extent possible to minimize industrial waste, so that broke becomes an additional raw material in the production of pulp sheets in the pulp dryer. The objective of this final pro…

The research was carried out experimentally using a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of five treatments and three replications. The treatment in this study ware physical activation with a…
ABSTRACT Paperboard is a thick and strong paper-based material that has 3 layers, generally used to make products such as packaging, boxes, and covers. In the process of making paperboard, coating is needed as a coating on the paperboard which will provide attractiveness and durability to the paperboard. Coating is a material used to improve the surface quality of paperboard. Quality improveme…
ABSTRACT Eucalyptus is one of the hardwood tree species commonly used in the pulp and paper industry. Pulp itself is wood pulp that is commonly used as raw material in papermaking, which is a thin material produced from the compression of fibres derived from pulp. There are various factors that affect the characteristics of paper, one of which is the wood harvesting age. In this study, the bul…
ABSTRACT This study aims to determine the effect of adding Gmelina as a chip raw material in a continuous digester on the efficiency of the oxygen delignification stage. The Gmelina ratio variations used range from 0% to 15%, with key parameters analyzed including kappa reduction, brightness, and the consumption of chemicals such as alkali charge and oxygen charge during the oxygen delignifica…
Paper grammature is defined as a measure of the weight of a sheet of paper, where paper weight is measured in grams per square meter (gsm) or g/m2. Grammature plays an important role in determining the characteristics of the paper sheet as well as the cutting quality during the cutting process. This final project aims to determine the effect of grammature on cutting quality on folio sheeter mac…
ABSTRACT Size press is a process to improve the quality of the surface properties of sheets by coating using surface sizing and starch. The amount of starch that sticks to the surface of the paper and penetrates into the paper is called size pick up. In this study, the author analyzes what parameters can affect the size pick up value and its relationship to size pick up, this study was conduct…
ABSTRACT The sizing process is an important stage in paper production that aims to improve the surface quality properties of paper, including water absorption, strength, and water resistance. The main chemicals used in the sizing process are native starch and the applicator rod as a means of applying starch to the sheet. These two things greatly affect the quality of the sheet during productio…
ABSTRACT Folio sheeter Machine is a machine that functions to change paper roll into sheets of folio-sized paper which are then stacked on a pallet. Folio paper products that have been arranged on the pallet can be directly packed for bulk orders or sent to the folio sheeter wrapping machine to be wrapped per ream into a ream wrap order. In the process of cutting folio paper, several defec…
