  Kraft Foods Inc. - 100 Years: Kraft Cheese
Kraft's 1916 patent for process cheese took Kraft from a commodity business with many competitors to an innovator with a unique food product that effectively responded to consumers' need for a more consistent product with a longer shelf life.
Kraft Deluxe process cheese slices, the first to be commercially packaged, were introduced in the U.S. in 1950.
Kraft revolutionized the production of cheese when he discovered that if he heated and continuously stirred cheese, then placed it in a sterile container, when the cheese cooled, it would regain its solid state.

 Examination questions 1a
The temperature in kraft cooking can be raised relatively fast up to 140 degrees C, but further increase of the temperature has to be slow in order to ensure uniform cooking reactions.
The H factor of the heating stage in kraft cooking is clearly higher than that of the cooking stage in cooking normal softwood pulp.
Increasing the sulphidity in kraft cooking from 30 % to 40...50 % increases the yield somewhat.

 TOWARDS ZERO-EFFLUENT PULP AND PAPER PRODUCTION:
The dominant process is the kraft or sulphate process.
The recovery cycle is well defined for the kraft process and is designed to recover pulping chemicals, reduce water pollution by combusting organic matter in the spent liquor, generate process heat and recover by-products of value.
The main steps in the process are the evaporation of the fl liquor drained from the digester after wood chip digestion, combustion of the concentrated liquor to produce a mineral "smelt", causticisation of the smelt and regeneration of the lime used in the process.

 US WOOD Case
The Kraft process had been an industry standard until the TMP process was developed in 1968.
However, the yield of the chemical process is much lower than with the mechanical process (50 percent for the chemical, and 95 percent for the mechanical).
Emissions from the pulping process are in the form of sulphides, with the chemical process producing a wide variety of sulfur by-products.

 REMOVAL OF CHLORIDE AND POTASSIUM FROM THE KRAFT RECOVERY CYCLE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
As kraft pulp mills move towards greater closure of process streams, it becomes necessary to remove from the mill's chemical cycle the non-process elements which enter the mill with the wood or with the bleaching chemicals.
In the kraft pulping chemical recovery cycle, it is well-known that chloride and potassium become enriched in the flue gas dust in the recovery boiler [1,2,3].
In addition, in practice the selectivity of the leaching process is poor, and because of the fine particle size, the filtration requirements are excessive for the large amounts of ash produced in modern mills.

 Welcome to the Clean Air Act Information Network
Kraft pulping means a chemical pulping process that uses a mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfide as the cooking liquor.
Pulping system means all process equipment, beginning with the digester system, and up to and including the last piece of pulp conditioning equipment prior to the bleaching system, including treatment with ozone, oxygen, or peroxide before the first application of a chemical bleaching agent intended to brighten pulp.
For purposes of complying with the kraft pulping condensate requirements in  63.446, the owner or operator shall measure the total HAP concentration as methanol except for the purposes of complying with the initial performance test specified in  63.457(a) for  63.446(e)(2) and as specified in  63.453 (j)(2)(ii).

 Kraft Mill Bleach Filtrate Recycle   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
A full scale commercial process for the recycle of bleach plant filtrate has been committed to by Champion International Corporation at its 1440 ton/day kraft mill in Canton, N.C. Non-process elements from the wood and from purchased chemicals will increase in concentration as filtrate is recycled and their concentration must be controlled by selective removal.
The particulate collected from the ESP of a kraft recovery boiler is comprised mainly of sodium sulfate and is often referred to as "salt cake" or as precipitator ash or ESP ash.
The decision to demonstrate this process at Canton was made in part due to the recent modernization work completed in the bleach plant [31].

 St. Anne-Nackawic Pulp Company Limited
The spent cooking liquors from the kraft and NSSC pulping lines were to be co-fired in the recovery boiler to recover cooking chemicals and energy, and to reduce the load to the effluent treatment system.
In 1982, new computerized process control technology was implemented in the cooking, washing and bleaching areas of the pulpmill and hydrogen peroxide and oxygen extraction were added to the bleaching sequence.
The characteristic odours of a kraft mill are produced by reduced sulphur compounds that are generated during the kraft cooking process and the subsequent handling of the spent cooking liquor.

 Kraft Pulp Production   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
In the kraft process, an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfide, known as white liquor, selectively dissolve the lignin and make it soluble in the cooking liquid.
Kraft pulping is a low yield process - only 45% of the wood used becomes pulp.
As soon as pulp is exposed to chlorine or chlorine dioxide during the bleaching process, the concentration of chloride ions in the waste water makes it too corrosive to be recirculated to the recovery system where the organic waste is stripped from the water and burned for energy in the recovery boiler.

 Friends of the Earth: Briefing: THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES OF PULP AND PAPER MANUFACTURE
Kraft or sulphate pulping is the dominant method of pulp production in the world by virtue of its versatility and the high strength, long fibre, very low lignin content pulp it produces.
In fact, the Kraft process was prohibited in several densely populated areas due to the sulphurous smell associated with the mills
Kraft process is banned in Germany because of this.

The cooking process causes the lignin that holds the wood fibres together in the woodchip to dissolve in the liquor, thereby releasing the individual fibres.
This process recycles the spent cooking liquor (also referred to as weak fl liquor) from the Brown Stock Washing process to a series of evaporators that drive off the water portion of the liquor to form strong fl liquor.
In the causticizers and clarifing process, a reaction occurs causing a precipitate of calcium carbonate, referred to as lime mud, which is then removed from the clarifiers, producing a clean white liquor which is reused in the digesters.

 "The ''Peace Process'' That Never Was" by Raymond Kraft   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
There have been decades now of grandstanding, politicalizing, and wishful thinking built up around the chimerical Palestinian Peace Process, all of it predicated, in the West at least, on the assumption that Yasser Arafat and the Palestinian Authority might, someday, actually want peace with Israel.
The only ''Peace Process'' the Palestinian leadership is truly interested in is a peace that includes the termination of the State of Israel, and the expulsion of the Zionists, the Jews, the Israelis, from the Middle East.
President Bush, of course, has to step up and say nice things now and then about dead leaders, however sociopathic they may have been, and about the ''Peace Process,'' because he is president and presidents are expected to say nice things, or at least polite things, about hopeless situations.

The majority of Kraft mills operate a closed loop system whereby 95% - 98% of the chemicals used in the process are recovered and reused.
Chemical pulp is routinely delignified to remove the 5% - 10% of lignin remaining after the pulping process.
Reported pulp yields of non-wood fibre are highly variable and dependent upon fibre type, process etc. Mechanical yields upwards of 90% compare well to wood pulp, and chemically pulped kenaf yields of 44% -70%
