BioinnovPaper Presents all the novelties of the technological sector of the paper

The Tuesday 1 April took place BioinnovPaper, an event organised by the Forum of the Paper in which they presented the last novelties of the industry of the paper. Produce paper without water, manufacture cellulose to low temperatures, or intelligent containers of paper and cardboard that warn to take the medication to time are some of the innovations that presented in the day.

The Museum Queen Sofia of Madrid received the past Tuesday 1 April BioinnovPaper, the annual event celebrated by the Forum of the Paper in which they presented numerous novelties of the sector. The day was divided in four panels of debate and had the participation of 15 speakers of technology centres of the industry of the paper, of the publishing world, of the distributors and of the architecture.

With reason of the big technological changes that are giving in Spain and in Europe, the sector of the paper pretends innovar in his processes of manufacture to carry out a descarbonización massive. Between the aims that poses the project paneuropeo Two Team, of the European Confederation of Industries of the Paper (Cepi) find the manufacture of paper without water, the reduction of broadcasts associated to his manufacture or produce cellulose to low temperatures with a minimum of power. Said project set up a competition between two European equipment of technicians and scientists of high level.

Day BioinnovPaper.

The technological concept winner pretends to manufacture new dissolvent biorenovables by means of the plants, that open the way to the production of cellulose to low temperature and to atmospheric pressesure. The ‘Dissolvent ‘ Eutectic Deep (GIVE)' would minimise the use of the power, the broadcasts of CO₂ and the waste since the biomass could dissolve in lignin, cellulose and hemicelulosa.

The ‘Condensation Flash with Steam' develops the concept of the manufacture of the paper without water, since the practically dry fibres would be pushed to a zone of learning with steam in turbulence and condensed in an entramado, using a thousandth part of the volume of water that employs at present. On the other hand, the ‘CO₂ Supercrítico' allows the dried of vegetables, fruit and flowers and the extraction equipment equipment of essential oils and spices, the dye of textile or the decaffeinated of the coffee and the tea. Also it allows the dried of the cellulose and the paper without heat or steam. Finally, the ‘Functional Surface' bet by the manufacture of products lighter, of lower grammage and the sale of surface and functionality more than weight.

In the field of the paper is important to surprise with provision insospechadas, as it is the case of the paper hidroenredado for wipes of Paper Aralar, first in the world totally Flushable and biodegradable. By his part, the Technological Institute and Graphic Cutwater (ITGT) works in the learning, quality consultancy and quality consultancy of companies of the graphic sector to carry out innovations like interactive papers that answer to the touch with sounds, opening sensors and electronic circuits printed matter that light if it opens a container, or cards capacitivas impresas in paper that interact with a tablet or a mobile when planting them on the screen.

Another of the initiatives is related with the paper in the stands, pieces of furniture and display units for fairs and congresses, events, presentations, escaparatismo, since they are recyclable and comfortable measures in the setting. In this field stands out the proposal of Stora Enso and his rigid board of cardboard. In the field of the inks, the Area of Technologies of Deposition of Material (impressesion and coating) of Cemitec, that bet by the replacement of the conventional inks by functional materials, contributing a value added to the new products of the printing.

The main aim in this sector is to achieve a packaging intelligent and able of interactuar with the consumers, so that it warn of the containers that have been opened, the state of conservation of a food, etc. The Line of Impressesion Advanced and Coatings of Aido at present is working in the development and impressesion of intelligent containers and formulation of inks with functional properties that allow to carry out the aims of the sector.

Besides, BillerudKorsnäs bets by a packaging renewable, that respect to the environingingment, reduce the broadcasts, was recyclable or biodegradable. In this case, Graphic Packaging is carrying out an alternative to the traditional containers for cool fruit and vegetables. Projects that seem futuristic are already a reality for a lot of visionarios of the industry of the paper that bet by the efficiency, the sustainability and the innovation in the manufacture and production like starting point in the big dump technological that pretends to carry out the paper.
