Fillers have always been important raw materials in papermaking, and they are now used for
various reasons in a wide range of paper and board products. The spectrum ranges from …

The discharge of textile dyes in water systems, due to poor binding to fabrics, is a major
health and environmental concern. The majority of synthetic dyes used in textile are …

The deposition of colloidal particles onto surfaces can be considered a special case of
hetero-coagulation. Deposition and detachment kinetics are determined by a combination of …

Filler retention is an important issue at the wet-end of the paper machine. Filler is added to
improve the printing and mechanical properties of paper. Filler retention in sheets has long …

The retention of fibre fines and clay particles in chemi‐thermo‐mechanical pulp (CTMP)
suspensions with poly (ethylene oxide) as a retention aid was investigated. The experiments …

The adsorption of cationic polyacrylamide (C-PAM) and silica nanoparticles onto a model
surface of silicon oxide was compared with the adsorption of C-PAM to fibres and their …

The kinetics of particle deposition onto the surface of spherical collector particles suspended
in a stirred batch vessel was investigated. The study considered monodisperse particle and …

Filler retention is an important issue at the wet-end of the paper machine. The efficiency with
which fillers are retained by the sheet affects the printing and mechanical properties of …

The retention of process colloids in the paper web is essential for papermaking process
efficiency and product quality. Fines (fibre fragments) and fillers strongly affect the optical …

This paper aimed at evaluating flocculation-Sedimentation process (FSP) used in local
stone cutting plants in Palestine. A pilot plant was built by scaling down the existing …
