Language Bank processprocessDescribing a process 描述過程 This diagram illustrates the process of paper-making./This diagram shows how paper is made. 這個圖說明了造紙的過程。
First/First of all, logs are delivered to a paper mill, where the bark is removed and the wood is cut into small chips. 首先,原木被運送到造紙廠,在那裏去掉樹皮,然後被切成木片。
Next/Second, the wood chips are pulped, either using chemicals or in a pulping machine. 接下來,用化學品或磨漿機把木片化成漿。
Pulping breaks down the internal structure of the wood and enables/allows the natural oils to be removed. 制漿過程使木材的内部結構分解,從而去除木材裏的天然油。
Once/After the wood has been pulped, the pulp is bleached in order to remove impurities. /…is bleached so that impurities can be removed. 木材制成漿後,將其漂白以去除雜質。
The next stage is to feed the pulp into the paper machine, where it is mixed with water and then poured onto a wire conveyor belt. 下一步便是將紙漿送入制紙機,與水混合後再倒入金屬傳送帶。
As the pulp travels along the conveyor belt, the water drains away. This causes the solid material to sink to the bottom, forming a layer of paper. 當紙漿沿傳送帶傳送時,水分蒸發,使得固體物質沉到底部,形成一層紙。
At this point the new paper is still wet, so it is passed between large heated rollers, which press out the remaining water and simultaneously dry the paper/…dry the paper at the same time. 這時,新出的紙仍然是濕的,故讓其經過幾個巨大的熱滾筒,擠壓脫水並同時烘幹。
