Solving the Hard-To-Pump Problems in the Pulp and Paper Industry, 1997 Engineering Conference Proceedings

The pumping system is one of the most critical parts of the pulp and paper manufacturing process. Its importance to the process is much greater than its capital cost: Over the life of a pump, the initial purchase price can become an insignificant part of the total Life Cycle Cost when you consider the cost of downtime if the pump fails, the cost of lower paper free-ness, the cost of damage when pumping shear sensitive chem-icals, and of course the cost of maintenance and repair in severe service applications. In this article, we will present an innovative technology that solves the hard-to-pump problems in the industry and allows paper mills to achieve productivity gains by pumping up to 18%+ density stock without the need for fluidization or air removal devices. Case histories show-ing the application of this technology in a number of pulp and paper mills worldwide will be given.
