Toggle main navigation Section navigation About Us References Board and paper references Comprehensive view to wet end chemical mixing with UHD technology CUSTOMER CASE: Comprehensive view to wet end chemical mixing with UHD technology Wetend Technologies and Solenis have been using Valmet's UHD technology to study the retention process of board and paper mills. The findings help to optimize the correct use of retention, strength and sizing chemistries. Valmet UHD imaging technology reveals the true nature of the behavior of fines in the retention process of board and paper mills. It helps us to optimize the TrumpJet mixing system of additives for the best performance. Jouni Matula, Chairman, Wetend Technologies Ltd. With UHD tools we can see how well fillers and fines are bound to fiber surface to optimize chemistries for improved sheet quality and lower dusting potential. Eemeli Siitonen, Market Manager EMEA, Solenis SUMMARY Location Finland Challenge Chemical and process technology suppliers were looking for technology to know the effects of the wet end chemicals. Solution With Valmet’s online and offline analyzers utilizing the UHD technology, elements like fiber fractions of the furnish can be detected by UHD imaging analysis. Large and small particles like flocs, shives, dirt, fibers, and fines are measured separately. Results Breakthrough finding: production of fines and filler agglomerates and binding them on fiber surfaces and fibrils instead of traditional flock forming The findings help to optimize correct usage of retention, strength and sizing chemistries Keywords Wet end, Fiber imaging, UHD technology, Automation Fiber Furnish Analyzer Fiber Image Analyzer Pulp Complete pulp mills Chemical pulping Wood handling Cooking and fiber line Pulp drying and baling Chemical recovery Air emission control New value-adding processes Dissolving pulping Mechanical pulping Recycled fiber Automation for pulp Services for pulp Fiber Technology Center Pulp references Pulp news and stories Board and paper Recycled fiber Stock preparation Board and paper machines Services for board and paper Automation for board and paper Industrial Internet Service Centers References Board and paper news and stories Search for products & services Tissue Complete tissue mills solutions Machine sections and rebuilds Development and pilot trials Services for tissue producers Automation for tissue References Industrial Internet Tissue Talks Insight Sustainability Learning services Tissue News Tissue Talks Contact Tissue Local websites 中文 - Chinese Suomi - Finnish Français - French 日本語 - Japanese Português - Portuguese Pусский - Russian Español - Spanish Svenska - Swedish ไทย - Thai Australia & New Zealand North America Deutsch - German Energy Energy solutions BFB Boiler CFB Boiler Gasifier Power plants Heating plants Air emission control Industrial Internet solutions Services for energy Automation for energy Technology development Energy news and stories More industries Alternative fuels Biofuels and biomaterials Chemical industry Fiberboard Filtration Food industry Laundry industry Marine Minerals and metals Nonwovens Oil and gas Wastewater Paper converting Pharmaceutical industry Petrochemical industry Automation Distributed control system Industrial applications Quality management Analyzers and measurements Condition monitoring Industrial Internet Automation projects Automation services About Us Valmet in brief Contact us Strategy Management Code of Conduct Careers Research and development Procurement Valmet's value creation Translate Valmet product names Industrial Internet Valmet Customer Portal Learning Services Service centers References Investors Valmet as an investment Reports and presentations Sustainability for investors Valmet share Shareholders Governance Financial information Events and calendar Investor relations Sustainability Sustainability at Valmet Sustainable supply chain Health, safety and environment People and performance Sustainable solutions Corporate citizenship Climate program Circular economy Sustainability reporting Media News Articles Customer magazine Blogs Podcasts Newsletters Social media Events calendar Media contacts Image gallery Video gallery Downloads Services Services for board and paper production Services for pulp production Services for tissue making Services for energy FOLLOW US Sitemap About this site Legal notice Trademarks Privacy notice Cookie preferences Contact us Social media © 2021 Valmet We use cookies and 3rd party solutions to optimize site functionality and give you the best possible experience while browsing our site.
