paper manufacturing
Paper manufacturing is the process of creating paper from raw materials, primarily wood pulp. The process begins with harvesting trees, which are then chipped into small pieces. These chips are cooked with chemicals to break down the fibers, resulting in a slurry that is cleaned and bleached to achieve the desired color and quality.
Once the pulp is prepared, it is spread onto a moving screen to drain excess water. The wet sheet is then pressed and dried to form large rolls of paper. Finally, these rolls are cut into sheets or other formats, ready for use in various products like books, newspapers, and packaging.
