Effect of TMP Refining Using Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD) on Energy Consumption and Pulp Quality, 1993 Pulping Conference Proceedings

An experimental investigation was conducted to study the effect of TMP refining using adjustable speed drive (ASD) on energy consumption and pulp quality. The project is based on the studies of disk refiner models at high or low consistency refining. The primary objective is to examine the potential energy efficiency improvement of a TMP system by evaluating the effect of TMP refining using ASD in pilot scale at CHYPS (Center for High Yield Pulping Science). The pilot experimental results show that certain benefits of TMP refining using ASD can be obtained. The preliminary results demonstrate that increasing the first stage of refining speed will reduce electrical energy at similar pulp quality.
