Increasing recovery boiler availability

Thermal and mechanical stress causes cracks in metallic structures. Such cracks have a tendency to grow bigger and the damage can be very disastrous in recovery boilers, which are vital pieces of equipment in the pulp and paper industry. Wall tube leaks of the furnace can lead to substantial boiler damage and unexpected shutdowns. One way to avoid damage is to use the continuous Savcor CI-system (Cracking Indicator) to detect growing cracks. "When compared with the conventional method, i.e. periodic visual and audible inspection, the new system can extend the life time of process equipment significantly," says Kaj Lindström of the Finnish company Savcor-Consulting Oy, a specialist in corrosion and preventive maintenance.

Termiska, mekaniska och kemiska påkänningar kan ge upphov till sprickbildningar i metallstrukturer. Sprickorna har en tendens att bli större och skadorna kan bli mycket allvarliga i sodapannor, som är livsviktig utrustning inom pappers- och cellulosaindustrin. Läckor i väggtuberna i förbränningskammaren kan leda till allvarliga skador på pannan och till oplanerade driftstopp. Ett sätt att undvika skador är att installera det nya Savcor CI-systemet (Cracking Indicator) för att upptäcka växande sprickor i realtid. "Jämfört med vedertagna metoder, d.v.s. regelbunden inspektion med hjälp av syn och hörsel, kan det nya systemet avsevärt förlänga processutrustningens livslängd", säger Kaj Lindström vid det finländska bolaget Savcor-Consulting Oy, specialiserat på korrosion och förebyggande underhåll.

A new grade of paper, Triple White, in three layers and with low grammage, is the response of Swedish manufacturer Stora Gruvön to the demand for lighter-weight packaging from such critics as consumers, manufacturers, politicians and environmentalists. "We have succeeded in combining low grammage with optimal characteristics in respect of runnability, strength and printability," explains Peter Malmqvist, Product Manager. At 70-120 gsm, this paper is just as suitable for prepacking food products as for carrier bags, envelopes, ream-wrapping and other flexible packaging. At present, Stora Gruvön is the only producer of this type of three-layer packaging solution in the world.
