13. Benefits of ERIC and Brightness measurement  ERIC measurement at start of process helps to optimize raw material mix.  ERIC measurement at floatation stages helps optimize chemical dosage.  Brightness measurement at bleaching stages helps to optimize Chemical dosage.  Target brightness pulp entering the paper machine and hence no requirements for brightness enhancing additives at machine.  Uniform product quality, no fibre damage caused due to excess chemicals, lesser chemicals in effluent.

15. Customer case in India  Khanna Paper Mills is an ISO 9001:2000 certified company  320 TPD DIP plant feeding PM-5 was one of the initial priorities for optimization.  Major challenges in this DIP were Brightness/ERIC variation and hence rejections  Excess chemicals were being used to compensate for Brightness drop.  In February 2013 Valmet installed INLINE sensor CORMEC 5 for the measurement of ERIC and Brightness at two stages to start with: -MC-Pump number 1 i.e. before addition of H2O2 -MC-Pump number 2 i.e. before addition of Na2S204 Date Author Title©Valmet15

16.  Reported savings were as: -Reduction of Na2S204 consumption was up to 15% -Reduction in H2O2 consumption was up to 10% -Reduction in Brightness variability was more than 20%.  Ink deposition on PM-5 has reduced considerably leading to: -Lesser use of cleaning chemicals -Improvement in physical health of PM-5 with respect to improved felt & rolls life. And finally: lesser chemicals in the effluent Date Author Title©Valmet16

21. Case study-1 Shandong APRIL SSYMB Pulp & Paper, Rizhao  Plant phase I is 315,000 ton fine wood pulp annually  Plant phase 2 is1,000,000 ton fine wood pulp annually  Phase II waste water plant treatment capability is 130,000 ton per day  The normal sludge concentration of the sludge mixing tank outlet is 2%~4%  Valmet TS sludge concentration transmitter is used for the measurement and the control loop.  The final total solids concentration reaches about 40%. It decreases the sludge bulk and water content. It will be more convenient for the sludge storage and the transportation. Date Author Title©Valmet21
