High quality Valmet Filter Bags improve power plant filtration

Valmet Filter Bags provide superior performance and durability in demanding baghouse conditions.

Air Dryer Nozzle Upgrade saves energy at Ishinomaki, case study

In addition to reducing related energy consumption by ~20%, the new PowerFloat Plus air dryer nozzles improved drying capacity and sheet runnability at Nippon Paper's Ishinomaki mill.

Safety improvements at the reel and winder (webinar)

Valmet experts discuss safety standards relating to reels and winders, and what can be done to improve operator and equipment safety with today's technology.

Helpful coating tips: jet angle, gap, critical factors, etc.

Factors that increase coat weight: decrease of blade load, decrease tip angle, increased viscosity/solids, increase speeds & increase in sheet roughness.

The mechanism, need for and effect of reel drum grooving

As machine speed increases and sheet porosity decreases grooving of the reel drum becomes necessary in order to avoid sheet wrinkles, sheet breaks and quality defects.

ReplaReplace IR drying with OptiDry Coat to reduce energy consumptionace IR drying with OptiDry Coat to reduce energy consumption

The OptiDry Coat high intensity air dryer is a compact air dryer using gas as a heat source and features high drying capacity, reduced space requirement and excellent runnability. OptiDry Coat is an especially attractive replacement for energy-intensive infrared dryers on coated lines.

LignoBoost plants produce large volumes of lignin, case studies

LignoBoost™ is a complete system, exclusively available from Valmet, which extracts lignin from Kraft black liquor. The first two commercial installations are up and running, producing high-quality lignin.

Refining Case StaRefining - More water out for less energy in, a case studyudy - More water out for less energy in

Upgrading Optimum TMP screw presses via a Valmet Screw Press Upgrade provided consistent secondary refining consistency for low press inlet consistency. The increased dewatering capacity solved a major design hurdle for a TMP mill. Energy savings of 12% were a bonus.

Valmet Coater Blades eC and nC for challenging coating positions

Valmet Coater Blades eC and nC overcome the many challenges in blade coating, including paper quality variations, short blade life, the high cost of blades and frequent blade changes.

XXL size recovery boilers - safety and availability, case study

XXL size recovery boilers have operated since 2004, reaching or exceeding all process requirements. The XXL size recovery boilers are typically designed for high dry solids content, high energy efficiency, low air emissions, and environmentally friendly process solutions. Those boilers burn Non-Condensable Gases (NCG) and other side streams coming from the other parts of the mill, and therefore the XXL size recovery boilers are very important in targeting for odorless pulp mills.
