Brazil's Pulp and Paper Industry Tries to Curb Environmental Impact, an Industrial Info Market Brief

Some of its more than 250 compounds originate naturally from wood (lignin, tannins, etc.), while others are synthetic, incorporated into the effluents in the manufacturing and bleaching processes of cellulose pulps, such as phenols, dioxins and furans.
