The present invention relates to a method and system for manufacturing a 3-dimensional packaging material form a moulded pulp material and such packaging unit. The method of the invention comprises the steps of: —preparing a pulp material, comprising the steps of: —providing an amount of biomass with non-wood biomass fibers as a raw material; preparing the biomass fibers; fibrillation of the prepared biomass fibers with an extruder to produce the pulp material with biomass fibers; providing the pulp material to the moulding device; moulding the 3-dimensional food packaging unit; and releasing the 3-dimensional food packaging unit from the mould.

The present invention provides methods for obtaining Baobab fibers derived from Baobab trees. The methods include obtaining Baobab plant material, dewatering of the Baobab plant material, and subsequent separation of the dewatered Baobab plant material. The present invention allows a resource-saving separation of the fibers, for example, through a dewatering of the Baobab plant material. Baobab fibers obtained according to the methods of the present invention can be used for a variety of purposes, for instance, for producing chemical pulp, paper, paperboard, carton, special papers, fabrics and fiber-reinforced plastics.

The invention pertains to a device and a process for the production of nanofibers, in particular, nanocellulose from a fiber-containing mixture of substances, whereby the device is formed including at least one discharge element with a discharge opening for the passage of a fiber-containing mixture of substances, at least one feeding device for the supply of the fiber-containing mixture of substances to the discharge element with a predeterminable process pressure, at least one positioning device for the positioning of the discharge element and whereby, for the disintegrating of the fiber-containing mixture of substances, a moveable processing body is arranged opposite relative to at least one discharge element whereby on the passage of the fiber-containing mixture of substances through the discharge element a slit-like processing area is formed between the discharge element and the substance mixture-affected partial surface of the moveable processing body.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of nano-fibrillar cellulose gels by providing cellulose fibres and at least one filler and/or pigment; combining the cellulose fibres and the at least one filler and/or pigment; and fibrillating the cellulose fibres in the presence of the at least one filler and/or pigment until a gel is formed, as well as the nano-fibrillar cellulose gel obtained by this process and uses thereof.

A wheat straw pulp, a preparation method therefor, an application thereof, and a method for adjusting the degree of substitution of CMC. The preparation method for the wheat straw pulp comprises the following steps: using water as a medium, performing ultrasonic crushing on wheat straw, performing solid-liquid separation, and collecting the solid to obtain wheat straw pulp, the temperature of the ultrasonic crushing being 25-100 C. In the preparation method, by using water as a medium, wheat straw is dissociated into wheat straw fibers in water in a mild temperature condition by means of ultrasonic crushing accompanied by H2O2. The wheat straw pulp can be used for preparing CMC. By adjusting different technological conditions to adjust the properties of the wheat straw pulp, CMC having different degrees of substitution can be prepared.
