BAGASSE PULP MANUFACTURING
CAP: 100 TONS/DAY
[CODE NO.4201]
The sugarcane bagasse is the main residue product of the Indian agricultural industry. Sugarcane bagasse pulp is considered a fine raw material for manufacturing paper and sustainable tableware products. The bagasse is a fibrous waste left after the juice is squeezed out from the sugarcane by pressing it.
Generally, sugarcane bagasse is yellowish-gray to lemon-colored consisting of lignin and cellulose fibers. Sugarcane bagasse is a mixture of hard fibers and soft parenchyma i.e. bagasse pith. Bagasse is rich in cellulose content. The chemical composition of sugarcane bagasse is majorly 50% cellulose, about 25% hemicelluloses and about 25% lignin.
Bagasse is the by-product of the sugar industry and is also one kind of papermaking fiber material. As the foundation of paper and pulp industry, fiber materials include wood fiber and straw fiber. Except for the sugarcane bagasse, there are some other materials like wheat straw, reed, bamboo and kenaf etc.
Among all kinds of fiber materials, bagasse is low-cost and inexhaustible to make paper pulp. The bleached bagasse pulp can be mixed to certain quantity of macro fiber and used to manufacture various high-grade cultural paper and living paper, such as body stock paper, copy paper, two-side offset paper, sanitary tissue, napkin and etc. With the proper manufacturing process, the bagasse pulp also can be applied to make coated art base paper or newspaper.
Sugarcane is annual rhizomatous plant; the average length of fiber is usually 1047-3.04 mm. After squeezing, the length of bagasse fiber is similar to the hardwood fiber is 1.0-2.34 mm. Bagasse pith is a parenchyma cell, it reduces the opacity and strength of paper and increase the chemicals consumption and difficulty of manufacture. So the depithing is important for bagasse pulping.
Sugarcane bagasse belongs to the straw fiber, is easy to cook or bleach and requires fewer chemicals consumption. Because silicon content of bagasse is lower than other straw fibers, which decide the bagasse pulp process or equipment is more mature and easy.
