Pulp & Paper

In today’s highly competitive Pulp & Paper Industry, players must find innovative ways of increasing production yields while lowering operating costs. Each step in the papermaking process has unique control and automation challenges that require their own engineered solutions: cooking, pulping, bleaching, chemical recovery, paper machine; as does the power and steam cycle that is intertwined with each of the above.

Among the problems that each of these processes present for pulp and paper control valves are: material damage caused by erosion and abrasion common in slurry and liquor applications, noise and vibration, and cavitation and flashing. Optimux manufactures a broad array of control valve solutions to tackle each of these challenges, from our OpVEE V-Notch Ball Control Valve to high pressure OpGL Globe Control Valves outfitted with ST-2 Anti Cavitation Trim.
