PSA Oxygen Generator for Pulp and Paper Industry: Enhance Efficiency & Sustainability
Absstem offers high-quality PSA oxygen generators tailored for the pulp and paper industry across India. Our systems provide a reliable supply of high-purity oxygen, improving delignification and bleaching processes. This leads to increased paper brightness, reduced chemical usage, and lower environmental impact, all while optimizing operational costs.
Pulp & Paper
During the pulp delignification process, oxygen is used to eliminate lignin which in turn helps in increasing the brightness of the paper thereby reducing the amount of chemicals required during multiple bleaching cycles. Not only this helps in reducing the environmental impact of bleaching chemicals but also provides direct monetary procurement cost savings of bleaching chemicals.
Bleaching is the process of lightning the color of the pulp through chemical treatment to get a brighter, stable and smoother paper. With the help of oxygen during delignification stage, the output paper quality is improved with a reduced impact on the environment.
How PSA Oxygen Generators Improve Pulp and Paper Manufacturing
PSA (pressure swing adsorption) oxygen generators enhance pulp and paper manufacturing by supplying consistent, high-purity oxygen. This accelerates delignification, reduces the need for chlorine-based chemicals, and improves the efficiency of bleaching processes. The result is higher-quality paper with a lower environmental footprint and reduced chemical procurement costs.
Key Applications
Oxy-Bleaching
Oxygen replaces chlorine in eco-friendly pulp bleaching processes. It improves brightness while reducing harmful byproducts.
Pulp Delignification
Oxygen is used to break down lignin in wood pulp. This enhances paper quality and reduces chemical usage.
Challenges
Minimizing the environmental impact of bleaching chemicals
Reducing procurement costs for chemicals
Maintaining consistent process quality
