Improving recovery boiler safety

A North American pulp mill was looking to improve the operations and safety of their recovery boiler. They invested in a Valmet Furnace Imaging System, IR (Portable Mid-IR mobile inspection camera) with off-axis lens to safely manage the firing rate of their boiler.

Safe and efficient operation control of the recovery boiler

A North American mill looking to monitor bed height and shape, and bed temperatures, installed a Valmet Furnace Imaging System, IR, to better monitor its recovery boiler and control the SO2 levels. A service agreement together with the analyzer helps the mill experience little to no downtime with the servicing of its camera.

A view to better control bed height and shape of the recovery boiler’s smelt bed

A North American mill did not have a working camera for monitoring bed height and shape, which did not allow operators to monitor black liquor conditions. By installing Valmet Furnace Imaging System, IR, the mill is now able to improve burn efficiency with better black liquor monitoring.

Reduction of SO2 levels with reliable temperature measurement

North American kraft pulp mill monitors the recovery boiler's bed height and shape with Valmet's infrared camera.

Cameras enable continuous monthly savings in fuel in lime kiln

North American pulp mill uses two Valmet cameras to better monitor the grate where lime is discharged so that operations can shut the access door eliminating the ambient temperature being pulled in at that location.
