Chemical pulp is a man-made fiber of
cellulose which is acquired from plant material and is further processed
predominantly in the paper industry, white pulp being used to produce
printing and writing paper and brown pulp being used to produce
paperboard and packing paper. Chemical pulping results in superior
quality papers as the process dissolves the lignin existing in the wood
and separates the cellulose fibers. The main applications for chemical
pulp are board production and paper. The manufacture of high-quality and
cost effective chemical pulp requires efficient programs for washing,
cooking, deposit control, bleaching, metal and water quality and
quantity management. Chemical pulp process can be subdivided into the
following categories: sulfite pulp process and sulfate pulp process. The
sulfite process cooks wood pieces in sulfurous acid mixed with
limestone to manufacture calcium bisulfite. The blend of calcium
bisulfite and sulfurous acid separates the lignin in the wood and
releases the cellulose fibers. The sulfite pulp is flexible and durable
and is generally used to enhance the characteristics of mechanical
pulps, mostly in newsprint industry. The sulfate pulp process is the
most commercially viable chemical pulping method. The process originated
from the soda processes developed in the early nineteenth century,
which used alkaline solutions to digest wood. Paper manufacturers added
sodium sulfate to the soda process and a superior pulp was produced. To
increase brightness and whiteness of chemical pulp and to discard
residual lignin, chemical pulps can be bleached.

The global chemical pulp industry is
expected to increase, due to rising demand for tissue products and
paperboard packaging. In addition, growing demand from end use
industries in emerging economies is expected to boost the revenue of the
chemical pulp industry. The growth in emerging economies is expected to
be driven by rapid urbanization and a growing population. The growth in
mature markets is being driven by increasing use of hygiene, packaging
and specialty products However availability of substitutes and volatile
raw material prices could hamper the growth of this market.
Asia Pacific, the fastest growing
market for chemical pulp industry, is expected to generate substantial
revenue during the forecast period. China and India are expected to be
the largest consumer of chemical pulp in Asia Pacific due to presence of
an established paper industry. Malaysia, Republic of Korea, Indonesia,
Macau, Australia, Republic of China (Taiwan), Philippines and Japan are
other key markets in Asia Pacific. Europe and North America currently
dominate the chemical pulp market and account for majority of the global
consumption. Germany, Italy, and France are expected to be the largest
consumers of chemical pulp in Europe.
The chemical pulp industry is
dominated by large and small enterprises. Companies are using aggressive
marketing programs to capture global market share. In addition, they
are focusing on research and development to develop new products for
specific industries. Furthermore, companies are expanding in emerging
markets such as Asia Pacific to expand their geographical presence. Some
of the key players operating in this market are AkzoNobel NV
(Netherlands), BASF SE (Germany), Bayer AG (Germany), Clariant
International AG (Switzerland), Dow Chemical Co (U.S.), ERCO Worldwide
(Canada), FMC Corp (U.S.), Shell Chemicals (Netherlands), Solvay SA
(Belgium), Ashland Inc (U.S.), Kemira Oyj (Finland), Buckman
Laboratories International Inc (Canada), Cytec Industries Inc (U.S.),
Enzymatic Deinking Technologies LLC (U.S.), ExxonMobil Corp (U.S), Nalco
Holding Co (U.S.)and SNF Floerger (France) among others.
