项目摘要

FiberLean Technologies is the leading global producer of Microfibrillated Cellulose (MFC) that can typically replace 10-15% natural fiber. The innovative FiberLean MFC enables paper makers to reduce their raw material costs, to innovate, and to develop new differentiated products. FiberLean MFC has also proven its great potential in the packaging sector with improved performance and less material being used. During the manufacturing process of Micro-Fibrillated Cellulose (MFC), grinding media (beads of mm/cm diameter) is used to break down pulp into MFC. We aim to establish a thorough understanding of the manufacturing process as a function of the formulation, with a particular focus on the interactions between the grinding media. The potential benefits are the following:reduced consumption of grinding mediaimproved energy efficiency for the grinding processenhanced product propertiesDue to the complex nature of the formulation, we plan to break down the system and investigate a series of variables. The learning outcome will enable our industrial to optimise the manufacturing process of MFC so as to improve the overall sustainability of the process.Under the broad umbrella of the Centre for Formulation Engineering, this multi-disciplinary project is part of an extensive collaboration between FiberLean and UoB where multiple doctoral researchers will work closely.

FiberLean Technologies是全球领先的微纤维纤维素(MFC)生产商，这种纤维通常可以取代10%-15%的天然纤维。创新的FiberLean MFC使造纸商能够降低他们的原材料成本，进行创新，并开发新的差异化产品。FiberLean MFC也证明了其在包装领域的巨大潜力，提高了性能，减少了材料的使用。在微纤化纤维素(MFC)的制造过程中，使用研磨介质(直径为mm/cm的珠子)将纸浆分解成MFC。我们的目标是建立对作为配方功能的制造过程的透彻理解，特别关注研磨介质之间的相互作用。潜在的好处如下：降低了研磨介质的消耗提高了研磨过程的能源效率提高了产品性能由于配方的复杂性，我们计划分解系统并调查一系列变量。学习成果将使我们的产业界能够优化MFC的制造过程，从而提高该过程的整体可持续性。在配方工程中心的广泛框架下，这个跨学科的项目是FiberLean和大华大学之间广泛合作的一部分，多名博士研究人员将在其中密切合作。
