Needs update!

The statictics are in need of an update. GP has been bought out! PwC has reported newer data. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.61.138.27 (talk • contribs) 12:40, October 2, 2006 (UTC)

Is this article worthy of stub status?

It doesn't talk about the industry at all. It's basically a single table with a small intro. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Exposay (talk • contribs) 21:12, 11 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Intro a little silly

The intro seems a little silly. It says the industry is dominated by ... and then goes on to list most of the earth's continents/regions. 70.57.112.194 21:31, 7 August 2007 (UTC)Jawshoeaw[reply]

Asia Pulp & Paper...Chinese, Indonesian, or Singaporean?

Currently, APP is listed on this page as a Chinese firm. They have operations in China, however their founder is Indonesian and the company HQ is in Jakarta. According to the article on the company itself, though, it's listed on the Singapore stock index...so what nationality should actually be listed? I'm fairly certain it isn't China.

Svenska Cellulosa

I'm having strong suspicions that the Svenska Cellulosa revenue numbers are supposed to be in SK and are shown in $$$ which would mean a mistake with a factor of ~8 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.13.111.100 (talk) 11:11, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

AQ and Xylanase usage

Use of surfactants and anthraquinone have reduced alkali consumption in Pulp Cooking and use of Xylanase enzymes in bleaching operation is effective to decreasing AOX discharges in Pulp mill effluent.

Anthraquinone is not used anymore that I know, the reason is it being carcinogenic. Xylanase is rarely used. It works well in a controlled lab setting but less so in pulp mills due to the varying properties of the bulk produced enzyme.

I suggest the cited part of the article is removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.230.157.211 (talk) 08:39, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
