Cost-Effective Foam Control in Paper Mills with Polyether Defoamers
For paper mills, managing operational costs while maintaining high product quality is a perpetual challenge. Foam generation can disrupt production, impact quality, and increase energy consumption. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers a cost-effective solution with our advanced polyether defoamers, designed to provide superior foam control and enhance dewatering efficiency.
Our polyether defoamer is specifically formulated to address the complex foaming issues encountered in modern papermaking processes. It exhibits rapid foam collapse, achieving over 90% foam reduction within 30 seconds under mechanical shear. This swift action is crucial for maintaining stable operations, especially when dealing with high-speed machinery and challenging furnish compositions, such as those found in recycled fiber systems.
The economic advantages of our product are substantial. It typically requires a 40-60% lower dosage compared to conventional defoamers, such as fatty alcohols. This significant reduction in chemical consumption directly translates into lower operating costs per ton of pulp produced. For paper mills looking to optimize their chemical purchases and improve their overall profitability, this cost-effectiveness is a key consideration.
Beyond foam control, our polyether defoamer plays a vital role in improving dewatering. It effectively reduces air content in the white water, leading to enhanced drainage on the wire section by 12-18%. Better dewatering means faster machine speeds, reduced energy usage in the drying sections, and improved sheet formation. These operational efficiencies contribute to both increased output and reduced manufacturing expenses.
We understand the importance of reliable performance across different conditions. Our defoamer offers long-term stability, maintaining its efficacy in a pH range of 4-10 and at temperatures up to 60°C. This broad compatibility ensures consistent results whether you are processing virgin pulp or recycled materials, and across various paper grades like testliner or fluting medium. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to delivering high-quality chemical solutions that provide tangible economic and operational benefits.
