Reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions Dosing accuracy in the paper making industry
Key conclusions • Peristaltic chemical metering technology can help cut gas consumption, water usage and greenhouse gas emissions • An important aspect of pulp production is to ensure neutral pH of pulp with the addition of lime • Only by investing in the latest technologies can industry continue complying with strict and ever- tightening environmental regulations
Executive summary This article focuses on controlling bacterial growth in paper making with the addition of lime which contributes to less slime formation and decreases fatty acid production. Conclusions will be drawn from measurements where the correlation between drying section temperatures and lime dosing has been proved. The resulting reductions in energy consumption and emissions will lend support to the outcomes identified.
