Paper Mill Wastewater
Fiber and Solids Recovery for Paper Mills
Plate settlers clarify paper mill wastewater and recover fiber, reducing solids to discharge and returning valuable material to the process.
Paper Mill Wastewater
Paper mills generate large volumes of wastewater carrying fiber, fillers, and fine suspended solids. Efficient clarification recovers usable fiber and protects receiving waters.
Plate settlers clarify mill effluent at high hydraulic loading, capturing fiber and fines within a compact footprint. Recovered solids can often be returned to the process, improving yield.
Robust stainless-steel construction handles the abrasive, fiber-laden nature of paper mill streams while delivering consistent clarification.
Treatment Challenges & Solutions
Fiber Recovery
Captures reusable fiber and fines for return to process.
High Solids
Clarifies high-solids mill effluent at high loading.
Abrasive Streams
Durable construction resists fiber and filler abrasion.
