Refining process is of critical importance unit process for papermaking that influences freeness as well as many mechanical and physical properties of paper. Refining is the process that requires extensive amount of electrical energy. Thus it is required to evaluate the refining process in terms of its influence on fiber and paper properties as well as its effect on energy consumption. In this study, to evaluate the efficiency of refining process the theory of inch contacts has been employed, and the influence of refining processes on fiber and paper properties has been determined and discussed.
