Mill Results – A fine paper mill in USA, producing coated printing paper

A fine paper mill in USA, producing coated printing paper, installed the above described process to the production line. Before strength starch and PAC fixing agent were added to thick stock line of the process, silica was after the machine screen.

Results

• Saving of PAC 25%
• Saving of Cationic Starch for strength 10…30%, in average 25%
• Saving of Anionic Nanoparticle (Silica) 48%
• Good formation
• Good retention levels and system runnability

Based on the savings Wetend was awarded with an extra performance bonus by the satisfied customer
