KADANT VA™ Vacuum-Assisted Gravity Strainer

Features and Benefits Vacuum-assisted dewatering - Handles feed capacities up to 0.5%; processes hard-to-drain low-freeness materials Recovers usable fibers from process flows Filtrate water is clean enough to be used in wash shower systems with no increase mill water requirements Reduces flows sent to waste stream providing reduced treatment and compliance costs Provides excellent washing of recovered fiber resulting in improved fiber quality and brightness Single unit, multiple single units, or as a multi-unit "Multipack" module flexible installation options High throughput per unit - Reduces equipment cost and floor space requirements Precise screening to 40 micron Accepts water is clean enough for a variety of applications; allows use of non-purging shower nozzles High-energy cleaning shower nozzles maintain throughput Replaceable filter media is economical and fast to change Filtrate is re-used in wash shower systems with no increase in mill water needs or costs Minimal power requirements VA Strainer Applications Deink mill washer effluent Deink mill clarifier influent Pulp mill washer effluents Pulp mill clarifier influents Screening cleaner rejects Paper mill rich white water Paper mill clarifier effluent Paper mill sewer water Cylinder mold effluent
