Japan's Prince Holding Corporation has established a technology to make furfural from the hemicellulose that is produced when dissolving wood pulp is produced (see picture). The company plans to use the equipment in the Yonago mill's Yonago plant (Yoko, Tottori prefecture, Japan) for commercial production. Samples will be provided and trial sales will begin in April 2016.

Oji makes wood pulp in a continuous manner using wood chips. In the process of increasing the purity of the dissolving pulp, the hemicellulose will be removed. At present, furfural is extracted by continuous extraction of these hemicelluloses using a pilot plant. The furfural obtained by this process has a purity of 98.5 to 99.0%, a moisture content of 0.013 to 0.200%, an initial boiling point of 150.0 to 156.0%, and an end boiling point of 162.5 to 170.0%.

Furfural is used as a solvent for refining oils and lubricants. In addition, the industry has recently begun to study the use of furfural to produce general-purpose chemical products such as polyurethane and polyethylene terephthalate and bioplastics. In the industry's expectation of replacing fossil raw materials with biological raw materials, furfural has become a material of great concern. (Reporter: Matsuda Chiho)

Flap Wheels

Flap wheel, in general will devide in to 2 types: flap wheel with shaft and Chuck Flap Wheel .


Aluminium Oxide Chuck Flap Wheels are an ideal choice for a wide variety of blending, deburring and finishing applications common in the metal fabrication, welding and polishing industries.flap wheels are conformable to intricate shapes and contours. designed to deliver a consistent finish with a uniform rate of cut, flap wheels wear away, continually exposing fresh abrasives.


Flap Wheel With Shaft
Mounted Flap Wheel are a general-purpose tool effectively used in a vide variety of applications ranging from weld removal and deburring to final finishing. They are specially to provide the versatility required in a modern metal-working factory. Providing an optimal finish on both stainless steel and non-ferrous metals.
