The build up and accumulation of pitch (wood resin) and stickies (e.g. adhesives, ink and coating binders from recycled fibers) deposits negatively affects pulp and paper mills, leading to machine shut downs, increasing cleaning time, maintenance, production costs and …

As early as 2022, the Hamburg-based group decided to process starch using the innovative and patented cooking process from PGA Anlagenbau GmbH at its Gelsenkirchen site. The reason for the investment was the desire to significantly increase the efficiency of starch processing …

The boundary conditions for water use are becoming increasingly challenging, even for additive processing systems initially classified as low-consumers, because fresh water withdrawals are increasingly not free of charge, sufficient fresh water quantities are not always …

The production of pulp and paper, as an energy-intensive industry, faces a significant challenge in the rapid transformation into a climate-neutral industry operation, which is also changing the landscape of energy generation. While the preferred method for electricity and heat …

BM Green Cooling (BMGC) offers green tech specifically for the paper industry. In this presentation, the focus will be on the new possibilities offered by the integration of ultra-high temperature heat pumps into the steam range. BMGC supports from the initial idea through the …

Paper production is highly energy intensive. A good two thirds of energy consumption is used to dry the paper and coatings. The vast majority of this energy is currently generated using fossil fuels. To decarbonize the paper industry, these fossil fuels must be replaced by …
