Abstract
This research project encompasses the basic problems with the papermaking industry from an environmental standpoint. Using a literature review of previously published research, the scope of the papermaking industry is explained, examined, and some key issues with the processes are brought to light. The research presented here is by no means exhaustive, but it presents an analysis of using non-wood fibers, reducing water use, and reducing energy within the system.
