REDUCE WATER CONSUMPTION

• Water has always been a key issue for the paper industry. The situation varies significantly from country to country.
• Within the process, different water qualities are available. The costs for these vary.
• The cost of fresh water is rising sharply in some cases.
• Climate change has an impact on the future availability of fresh water.
• The costs for wastewater treatment are on the rise.

• Reduction of fresh water consumption 
  and the associated wastewater volumes.
• Shift between different water qualities 
  towards inferior qualities.
• Replacement of higher water qualities 
  with lower qualities for selected applications.
• Reduction of wastewater volumes 
  and the associated costs.

Discover how we reduce water consumption on paper machines through targeted measures, based on our successfully implemented projects. Our case studies clearly demonstrate how you can significantly reduce your costs while maintaining or improving paper quality and achieving a return on investment starting in just a few months. 

ACHIEVED RESULTS

• Fresh water consumption for felt cleaning reduced by 80% or 98,000 m3 per year.
• Service life of press felts increased.
• The same or even improved paper quality.
• Return on investment within a few months.

ACHIEVED RESULTS

• Dilution water replaced by clear filtrate water to the extent of 77,000 m3/a.
• Clear filtrate water does not need to be cleaned and warmed up.
• The same or even improved paper quality.
• Return on investment within a few months.
