Abstract: Methods for inhibiting the deposition of organic contaminants from pulp in pulp and papermaking systems are disclosed. Albumins, globulins or blends thereof and spray-dried animal blood cells are added to the pulp or sprayed onto deposition prone surfaces of a papermaking system suffering from organic contaminants.

Abstract: An apparatus is used to process an original digital image to obtain a uniformly scaled desired digital image, the original digital image having a number (N) of successive original image data while the desired digital image has a number (M) of successive desired image data. When (M) is greater than (N), linear interpolation of (n)th and (n+1)th ones of the original image data is performed to produce a residual interpolated image data inserted therebetween when division of (M-N) by (N-1) results in a remainder (S) and when (n) is a minimum number which meets a condition (n+1)*(S).gtoreq.(s)*(N), wherein (s) ranges from 1 to (S). When (M) is less than (N), an address generator controls a memory to output selected ones of the original image data. A succeeding original image data outputted by the memory is offset from an immediately preceding original image data outputted thereby by a number (V) or by a number (V+1), the number (V) being equal to a quotient that results from division of (N) by (M).

A succeeding original image data outputted by the memory unit is offset from an immediately preceding original image data outputted thereby by a number (V) or by a number (V+1), the number (V) being equal to a quotient that results from division of (N) by (M).

Abstract: A method of inhibiting the deposition of organic contaminants in a pulp and papermaking system comprising adding to the system an effective amount of a detackifying composition comprising a charged polymer and an oppositely charged surfactant, with the proviso that at least the polymer or the surfactant be surface active.

Abstract: A method for enhancing the penetration of cooking liquor into wood chips to form a Kraft pulp which comprises adding to the cooking liquor specific surfactants such as ethoxylated dialkylphenols and ethoxylated alcohols.

Abstract: In a papermaking operation which utilizes secondary fiber furnish containing hot melt or pressure sensitive adhesive contaminants, a method of inhibiting stickies comprising adding to the pulp slurry at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of fatty alkanolamides and ethoxylated compounds in addition to a hydrocarbon solvent.
