30 PROJECTS & CONTRACTS
Reject and sludge handling kit and stock preparation ordered for Palm’s new mill at Aalen
for its new paper mill at Aalen in Germany from Andritz. A stock preparation system has also been ordered from Voith. Start-up is scheduled for the third quarter of 2021. The complete reject treatment
P
system supplied by Andritz will include two Universal Rotary Shears UC1300 and one Universal Shredder FRX2000. The system will be able to handle light rejects and pulper rags. These pulper rags will be processed without any manual intervention as they will be shredded directly at their point of origin beneath the pulper for transporting on conveyor belts. The centrepiece of the sludge
apierfabrik Palm has ordered the complete reject treatment and sludge handling system
handling system is a Sludge Screw Press SCS, designed for high throughput, which will dewater the sludge very efficiently. Palm already has several Andritz sludge handling systems in operation in other mills. Voith will be supplying the stock
preparation line for the project and has designed one of the largest and most advanced BlueLine systems worldwide. As well as the entire stock preparation unit from feed-in of the recovered paper to the finished stock, the scope of supply also includes the complete design of the line and its measuring, control and instrumentation systems. Voith had already provided Papierfabrik Palm with support during the conceptual and approval phase for the new build project.
Pulp Paper & Logistics
The stock preparation unit will
produce 2,200 metric tons of stock per day. A precondition for the high quality of the product is an extremely clean furnish. At the same time, the company
placed particular emphasis on achieving a sustainable, environmentally compatible paper production process. The design of the stock
preparation line is based on the EcoProcess developed by Voith to enable an energy-optimised machine configuration. The EcoProcess combines a strict counterflow principle with smart water cycle separation. In conjunction with water management across all systems, this results in a controlled discharge of dissolved and colloidal impurities with low water consumption.
Also included in the Voith
order are an IntegraScreen, which ensures consistent flow and pressure conditions around the screen, which results in high contaminant separation efficiencies; IntensaPulper, which has a combination of a special vat geometry and the asymmetric arrangement of the rotor, the
