Optimize your Pulp and Paper Process in all Stages

Besides wood fibers, water is the most important raw material in the pulp or paper mill. Simply put, pulp and paper manufacturing is impossible without water at every step of the production process. optek offers analysis solutions to paper mills covering the whole production process including raw water- and effluent monitoring plus bleaching and fiber recovery steps. Tightly controlling the whole production process ensures the specified product quality, maximizes equipment uptime and yields and makes sure regulatory maintenance with legal limit values is maintained.
