Achieving 18 months of production on lime recovery kilns in the pulp and paper industry, 2017PEERS

The pulp and paper industry is continually investigating cost reduction methods while trying to achieve maximum production.  One trend within the industry is increasing the production cycle from 12 months to 18 months and beyond.  This paper focuses on the Lime Recovery Kiln and examines the following: 

The installed base and age of lime recovery kilns in the North American pulp and paper market. 

Why kiln equipment owners in the North American pulp and paper industry are increasing the production cycle time between shutdowns. 

The lime recovery kiln design life, examples of poor lime recovery kiln maintenance, and the recommended kiln maintenance & monitoring to achieve 18 months of production. 

Now, more than ever, it is imperative to implement the best-available kiln monitoring and maintenance practices on the lime recovery kiln to achieve more production and less unscheduled maintenance repairs.
