Evaluation of the cleaning system of a Kraft paper mill
Main Article Content
This paper shows the methodology and results of the evaluation of the cleaning system of a Kraft paper mill. This evaluation was made keeping in mind variables of that system such as the pulp stock consistency percentage, ash content, air level in the pulp stock, and differential of pressure through the cleaners, for the analysis of a series of samplings carried out during the production of the different paper grades. On the basis of the results, possible modifications or improvements of the cleaning system were proposed, which will allow a reduction in pulp and water losses, energy consumption, and the amount of air required in the paper machine.
