Deink Washer Retention Program Increases Deink Plant Yield

Many modern deink facilities utilize high turbulence wash-ers for the removal of fine ink particles, fines, and fillers. These washers are also characterized as producing high solids losses due to the turbulent nature of the washing process, Solids losses of 20-45% are typical of high turbulence deink washers. Solids losses of this magnitude can have a significant impact on deink plant yield. The impact of a deink washer retention program on deink plant yield, system deadload, clarification, sludge generation, and product quality is discussed in this paper.
