Valmet Unveils Advanced Valmet Brown Stock Analyzer for Enhanced Kraft Pulping Control
Valmet, a leading provider of automation systems, introduces the Valmet Brown Stock Analyzer, an innovative addition to its online pulp quality analyzer family. Specifically designed to optimize digester and brown stock washing control in kraft pulping, this analyzer offers a high frequency of analysis, making it ideal for achieving high yield and superior brown pulp production.
A standout feature of the Valmet Brown Stock Analyzer is its dual sampling points for blow line Kappa measurements. By capturing Kappa values before and after refining, it ensures accurate and frequent Kappa profiles, leading to enhanced process control. This comprehensive insight empowers mills to optimize cooking parameters, resulting in improved yield and pulp quality.
The analyzer employs a reliable sampling technology that extracts pulp samples and transports them to the analysis unit. Here, the dissolved lignin is effectively washed, and the pulp's Kappa number is analyzed using advanced optical measurement technology. The Valmet Brown Stock Analyzer covers a Kappa measurement range of 9 to 120.
With a focus on efficiency, the pulp sample handling principle minimizes water consumption, making it suitable for high shive content pulps. Furthermore, its design incorporates a minimal number of moving and wearing parts, reducing the maintenance requirements.
Valmet prioritizes user-friendliness and operator safety with its thoughtful analyzer design. The Valmet Brown Stock Analyzer ensures that operators are shielded from the harsh process environment, enabling laboratory sampling to take place conveniently and securely in a separate location. An automated built-in laboratory collector facilitates this process, while only the process sampling device remains connected to the pressurized pulp process.
