Deinking Plants

The production of high-quality printing papers, newsprint, and tissue from recycled fiber is challenging and mills need to handle more furnish variability, as paper qualities get mixed and contaminated with non-fiber materials.

Valmet offers innovative deinking technologies and cost-effective subprocesses, from pulping to stock preparation for efficient impurity removal, high yield, controllable ash content, and high brightness gain.

Advanced process controls from Valmet further maximizes your process performance to ensure stable quality furnish for the production of high-quality paper grades.

Efficient wet strength broke pulping at Essity Collodi TM2

Essity’s Collodi Mill in Italy solved their stock preparation challenges by rebuilding the existing system. TM2 produces colored tissue grades and that places high requirements on stock preparation – and on pulping, especially in terms of capacity, energy consumption and safety.
