Tank Cleaning Devices for the Pulp & Paper Industry
Over 5,000 Alfa Laval tank cleaning devices are used by the world’s largest paper mills, not only decreasing water usage by 99% but decreasing cleaning time from days to minutes. Through the use of impingement cleaning, boiling out has become an ancient technique.
Alfa Laval’s patented automated rotary impingement tank cleaning is strong enough to remove the most stubborn paper stock. Durable in design, they are perfect for portable applications, meaning you can use an Alfa Laval tank cleaning device throughout your entire process, from pulping to conversion, simply by attaching the tank cleaning device to the existing plant water systems.
Alfa Laval tank cleaning devices are often used during scheduled outages, allowing for quick insertion and safe, cost effective cleaning. Employees are then available to utilize their time and efforts in other areas, without hazardous consequences. Alfa Laval Tank Cleaning devices are also used during color and grade changes to eliminate the risk of cross contamination, meaning a better quality product. In a world where quality is the deciding factor, it is imperative to begin with a clean vessel.
