Abstract
<p>Following the previous issue, the technological approaches of the paper industry in the 1970s were reviewed.</p><p>The sharp rise of oil price was devastating to the industry, which, as a whole, started to save energy in any measures. As results, unit consumption of the total energy went down from 133 in 1981 to 92 in 1999, expressed in index with that in 1990 as 100. The ratio of yearly purchased energy value to that of yearly paper and paperboard production, based on money, was reduced from 19.5% in 1981 to 6.8% in 1993.</p><p>The menace of imported products was countered by improving cost performance of products. Synthetic pulp and paper, which were attractive in the late 1960a and expected to take a 20% share in the 1970s, failed due to oil price hike.</p><p>As a result, the paper industry, having technologically dealt with problems like environmental pollution, scarce wood supply, high energy price and menace of imported products, recovered profit more than the av erage of other industries. It was, moreover, understood in public that the industry was ecologically friendly and sustainable.</p><p>The technological development of process industries, one of which was the paper industry, however, was stagnating in the 1990s and the revolution was beginning.</p>
