FABRICATION OF CELLULOSE FIBER FOR THERMAL INSULATION USING PAPER WASTE

Abstract

Cellulose fiber Insulation is a supportable material for the purpose of Thermal Insulation processed from recycled paper. It tends to be installed over wall by the means of cellulose tile. Cellulose fiber insulation is an Eco-friendly thermal insulation material which is also economical to use considering the source, reused paper. The great thermal properties and low embodied energy make it desirable eco-friendly material. Anyway because of absence of good knowledge in its application and properties, cellulose insulation isn't generally utilized in contrast with more conventional insulation materials. Considering the reasonable energy saving method for structures, outer wall insulation framework is required to assume a significant function in building electricity conservation. Also, higher energy efficiency drives our requests for a lot thicker thermal insulation materials. The thermal properties of cellulose fiber insulation was resolved utilizing the simulation work over the Ansys software. Cellulose insulation simulation were created with fluctuating thickness. Similarly, simulation were done with different insulation material EPS for comparative results. The result have shown that the performance of cellulose insulation was significant towards its counterparts. The comparison with the material of similar properties have shown that cellulose fiber insulation is better in thermal conductivity. The cost analysis of the material have shown that cellulose fiber insulation have similar result or little bit lesser then its counterpart, but have potential to improve if the scale of production is increased significantly. The work is to improve the insulation quality by the method of cellulose tiles which fasten up the other cellulose fiber insulation method and provide better insulation and reduce the disadvantages in other method.
