The global production volume of chemical pulp in 2018 was 144 million metric tons. Chemical pulp refers to pulp that has been produced by combining wood chips with chemicals in large vessels called digesters. In this process, the chemicals are combined with heat to break down lignin (the material that binds the cellulose fibers together) without causing significant damange to the cellulose fibers themself.
