Use of industrial pumps, blowers, valves and heat exchangers in the paper industry
The paper and cellulose sector is one of the industry’s toughest areas with its continuous production lines, high water consumption and chemical processes. Equipment used in this sector; It should be resistant to high flow fluid transfer, compatible with chemical environments, long-lasting and energy-efficient.
As Kenfle Industry, we offer the pump, blower, valve and heat exchanger solutions needed by the paper mills with material options suitable for every stage of the processes.
Major processes in paper production
1. Cellulose preparation and pasting
– Conversion of wood and recycled paper into fiber.
Centrifugal pumps, peristaltic pumps and blade valves are used at this stage.
2. Chemical processes
– Mixing whitening, decolorization and chemical additives.
Air diaphragm pumps, dosing pumps and PVDF/PFA-coated valves play a critical role.
3. Paper Machine Processes
– Laying the fiber on the wire, removing water and drying.
Vacuum blowers, roots blowers, centrifugal pumps, segment ball valves, blade valves are used.
4. Energy and Steam Management
– The use of steam and hot water for drying rollers of paper machines.
Tubular and plate heat exchangers, control valves come into play here.
5. Wastewater and Recycling Systems
– Treatment of wastewater that occurs in paper production.
Dosing pumps, submersible pumps and automatic controlled valves are used.
Pumps used in the paper industry
– Centrifugal pumps: in the transport of fiber liquids and process water.
– Air diaphragm pumps: in chemical transfer.
– Peristaltic pumps: in sludge and dense waste transfer.
– Magnetic coupling pumps: in precise processes where sealing is required.
Blower Systems
Blowers play a critical role in paper production, especially in vacuum applications, drying and ventilation systems.
– Roots blowers: in vacuum and pressure applications.
– Centrifugal blowers: on folding machines and other paper machines
Industrial Valves
– Butterfly valves: in high flow water and chemical lines.
– Check valves: to prevent backflow.
– Stainless steel valves: for high temperature and chemical resistance.
– Valves with actuator: In control of automation in paper machines.
heat exchangers
– Plate exchangers: in cooling and heat recovery.
– Tube heat exchangers: in steam applications at high pressure and temperature.
– Titanium and stainless material: for chemical resistance.
