Excerpt from A Study of the Process of Securing Rosin From Wood by Extraction With a Petroleum SolventThe problem of obtaining as much valuable material and as little waste as possible from our forests is becoming of greater importance each year, end as a result, every means that will tend to increase the value of the products and thereby reduce the actual wood waste is being tried. It is stated, that of the total wood standing, only 15 to 20 percent reaches the market as lumber. The other 80 to 85 percent consists of small trees, limbs, edgings, etc. In many plants this waste product is burned so as to get it out of the way. Of course, some of it can be used as fuel to furnish power for the mill but this will consume only about 40 to 45 percent of the total waste.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
