Join our webinar to hear how the unique combination of automated machine learning, chemistry and process expertise, and data creates the needed visibility in the papermaking process. We’ll introduce KemConnect® Harmonizer, our digital service for papermakers, and show you how it enables the right decisions at the right time in the paper mill control room.
In the face of the energy crisis, papermakers are seeking opportunities for improving energy efficiency in their production. A good place to start looking for savings is the dryer section of the paper machine, as it consumes a lion’s share of all the energy used at a paper mill.
As paper and board makers continue to use more recycled fibers, they will increasingly need stickies control to ensure machine cleanliness and runnability. A new family of quick inversion polymers are shown to be highly effective at removing sticky contaminants.
A one-size-fits-all solution can be a poor fit for most. That’s why Kemira’s dispersion barrier coatings for recyclable and fluorine-free paper and board packaging are based on an open formula.
For the paper and board manufacturers, reaching success with barrier technology requires more than just adding the right coating chemistry to the process.
Even the most experienced paper machine operator cannot grasp all the interdependencies in the complicated papermaking process to reliably predict where the process is headed. Here’s where KemConnect® Harmonizer, our new digital service for papermakers comes in.
Consumers want their tissue products to be both soft and strong. For the tissue manufacturers, this requirement has always been a troublesome one because of the rule of thumb: when the softness increases, strength decreases, and vice versa.
David Paque, Senior Applications Specialist for Strength at Kemira Pulp & Paper, lights up at a challenge. He shares a recent success, where the net return on the investment made in strength chemicals was more than a million dollars a year for the customer mill.
The complexity of sustainability topics is what drives Mari Ojanen, Manager, Global Processes and Projects at Kemira R&D and Technology, in her work.
Join our webinar to learn how dispersion barrier coated boards behave in the repulping process and how the repulped material can be effectively reused in board making.
