PDP™ Adoption Grows in Brazil Pulp Industry

October 1, 2013

NORAM completed shipment of its sixth Precipitator Dust Purification (PDP™) Chloride Removal system to a Brazilian Customer for installation and commissioning later this year.

This is the third PDP™ system supplied to South America, where the fast-growing pulp industry appreciates the operating features of the PDP, including the minimization of process losses, a greater tolerance of high concentrations of carbonate salts in the feed, and minimal interdependence on other mill unit operations.

The proprietary PDP™ ion-exchange system purges metal chlorides from the Kraft mill recovery cycle, that otherwise result in sticky deposits in the recovery boiler, and constrain overall mill production.
