Comments on conceptual engineering – Introduction
by Heikki Hassi & Panu Tikka Since the beginning in 1983, key service offerings of SciTech-Service Oy Ltd have covered the range from scientific research and development to plant engineering, focusing on biomass-based technologies and processes. In other words, our aim is to bridge the gap between R&D and industrial process technology – two fields, which are mastered by quite …
Transport phenomena in kraft (sulphate) cooking process
Wood substance is a very complicated porous structure consisting of lignin bound wood fibers. We were initializing and leading a 15 years period of research on these issues and their interdependence s with pulp industry, machinery manufacturers and Helsinki University of Technology.
