If there were an economic and efficient way of removing the ink, waste paper could be used over and over again. Last week...
...Field process, developed over the last six years at the paper mill he now owns in Manistique, Mich., is much the same as dozens of paper reclamation techniques tried in the past. Most of these begin by grinding used (inked) newsprint, mixing it with fresh wood pulp, and removing the ink by subjecting the batch to a strong chemical bath.
