Abstract
Wet barking in drums is substituted with dry wood barking which virtually eliminates the generation of waste water. Instead of adding water to the barking drum, the dry bark stripping process uses steam to intensify the bark stripping, producing only solid wood waste. The wet bark stripping process supplies hot and cold water to the barking drums to intensify the process. The process produces a water-borne waste and solid waste.
