Common ways an OEM partner helps mills achieve their goals

Maintaining a strong relationship with a trusted OEM partner lets producers learn from the industry’s manufacturing legacy and keep operations moving forward.

Reel primary arm synchronization avoids bottom jumbo reel losses

If you suspect that you are losing excessive paper on the bottoms of your jumbo rolls, the primary arms may be the culprit. Primary arm synchronization is critical for the reel to function properly during turn-up situations.

Time to turn it down

Valmet Recovery Boiler Cleaning - simple, efficient and safe

Valmet's recovery boiler floor washing service, Valmet Recovery Boiler Cleaning, washes the floor along with the rest of the boiler using low pressure water sprays and mixing devices. This decreases mechanical cleaning and reduces floor tube damage.

Recovery boiler selective catalytic reduction - a retrofit case

SCR – Selective Catalytic Reduction is a well-established and widely used technology for NOx removal from power boiler flue gases. Target emission levels are decreasing and SCR will soon be needed for recovery boilers. This article is an abstract of a white paper which presents a study for a retrofit case using SCR to lower NOx from 200 to 100 mg/m3 (6% O2, dry gas), including implementation of some high power features.

Six problems in the evaporator stage and possible solutions

Evaporators are used to evaporate black liquor from approximately 15% dry solids to 70-85% dry solids. Operating issues include scaling, corrosion, liquor carry-over, vacuum, condensate segregation and foaming liquor. Each can be mitigated with process and technology changes.

Methanol - from pulp mill waste byproduct to valuable fuel

Technology has been used for several years to liquify methanol from SOG. A new process has been developed to produce purified methanol that can be sold as a green renewable fuel, transforming an undesirable waste byproduct into a potential new revenue stream for the pulp mill.
