Furnish optimisation The Evaluating the papermaking potential of pulps section described the testing of quality of a single pulp. This section describes the ranking of paper pulps or furnish for a defined purpose. Paper pulps are usually a mixture of several pulps, fillers, and other additives. In the furnish optimisation procedure, the tests include all
