Fiber Recovery
Recovering Valuable Fiber from Mill Water
Plate settlers recover fiber and fines from pulp and paper process water, returning material to production and reducing solids to discharge.
Fiber Recovery
Fiber lost to process water represents both a material cost and a discharge burden. Recovering this fiber improves yield and reduces the solids load leaving the mill.
Plate settlers concentrate fiber and fines efficiently, producing a thickened underflow that can be returned to the process and a clarified overflow suitable for reuse or discharge.
High-rate performance in a compact footprint makes plate settlers a practical choice for fiber recovery within existing mill layouts.
Treatment Challenges & Solutions
Yield Improvement
Returns recovered fiber to production to reduce raw material cost.
Lower Discharge
Reduces suspended solids leaving the mill.
