A pulp heater is an innovative type of equipment mainly created to inject and mix steam directly into a low and medium consistency pulp stock line. All this is done with the help of a static mixer. This helps in making the process simple.

More Information

• It was mainly introduced to solve issues with mixing
• As a revolutionary static mixer, it has made the process simple
• Direct steam injection heating for pulp heating and bleaching is one of the common techniques that is used
• The pulp heater helps to lighten and/or remove lignin element from the pulp to ensure to brighten its appearance
• The main factor in a pulp heater is temperature control
• Temperature helps enhance the healing process

How does a Pulp Heater Work?

With the help of temperature control, and in order to improve chemical performance, the stock is heated by the steam into the pulp line. This is done by the pulp heater prior to the addition of bleaching chemicals.

Benefits 

• There are only a few process upsets
• There is better temperature control
• The heating process is made reliable
• It saves energy
• The maintenance cost of a pulp heater is low
• It replaces the old style motor driven peg mixers
• In a pulp heater, there are no motors, seals to be repaired or replaced
• Modern day technology is used in this equipment
• It can be used to heat green liquor and black liquor

Features 

• Optimum results
• Excellent heating capability
• Low maintenance
• User-friendly design

The pulp heater is much in demand in as it acts as a significant energy user. These heaters are either pulp mills or integrated paper and pulp mills.

It is also to be noted that the Combined Heat and Power (CHP) application has a significant effect on the energy efficiency which is involved in the pulp and paper industry.

Product Applications 

• Tank & suction heating
• Plant utility heating
• Dryers & kilns
• Indirect steam generators
• Calendar rolls

A Stellar Product

For the most part, a pulp heater offers several benefits. It can withstand any superior type of input given and comes with resistance and has an easy installation process.

As cost-effective equipment, it is highly predictable when it comes to mixing and dispersion and provides a uniform product.
