Paper Mill Saves Thousands in Energy and Chemical Costs

Be sure you pick the best direct steam injection heater

This mill was using our competitors 3 way direct steam injection valve to heat green liquor. This steam valve controls steam with external control valve resulting in pressure variation and a reduced range of stable operation. Server hammering and vibration damaged internal components and connected equipment.

Installed prior to the slaker to precisely control temperature and maximize the conversion efficiency of slaked lime, a K413ASX Hydroheater^® operates with no hammering or vibration.

The mill reports no unscheduled maintenance shut-downs and no hammering and vibration occurs.The Hydroheater precisely maintains green liquor temperature at 190ºF [87.7°C].

Operating Conditions:

Unlike heat exchangers or spargers, the Hydroheater is designed only for your process conditions and unique application. We need to know a few things about your conditions, such as temperature range, steam pressure, and flow rates to size a heater specifically for you. When you click on our application data sheet and fill in the information, we will contact you within one business day. After an initial conversation with a sales representative or one of our engineers, we will then provide you with a custom quote for the Hydroheater best suited for your process.

Yes, I want to save energy and have more control using direct steam injection. Please complete the Application Data Sheet which helps us understand your process conditions such as fluid density, flow rates and temperature parameters.
