New Efficient Mixing System of Papermaking Additives Cuts Fresh Water Consumption, 2006 Papermaker’s Conference
Wetend Technologies Ltd has invested during past years on development of chemical and additive mixing into stock close to headbox. A TrumpJetTM jet injection and mixing system for papermaking additives eliminates completely additive post dilution with fresh water in PM Approach system process. Additives are mixed effectively into the process by exploiting circulated headbox feed stock. The system gives considerable energy savings as well as reduction of CO2 emission case by case. Overdosing of additives will be also avoided. This results to chemical savings. About 130 systems are already in operation world wide.
