ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT
Article history: In order to design a flotation circuit to remove ink and contaminants from slushed old corrugated
Received 12 May 2008 container (OCC) pulp suspension, a model based on mass balance was developed. The model is a five
Accepted 28 August 2008 fractional model, which handles mass flow rate of ink, fiber, fines, filler and dichloromethane (DCM)
extractives. A detailed method of calculating the deinking selectivity of a material from experimental
