Detergents
Cleaning and deposit removal are essential for efficient, high-quality paper and board production. During manufacturing, organic and inorganic contaminants build up, affecting reliability. Common issues include *stickies*—adhesive particles from recycled fibers and coatings—that clog machinery and disrupt processes. Ink and pigment buildup from recycling can reduce efficiency, especially during deinking. Microbial contamination leads to slime formation, causing inefficiencies and hygiene problems. Fiber and filler deposits in press and drying sections further lower equipment performance and product quality.
If left unaddressed, these issues can reduce machine efficiency, cause unplanned stoppages, and increase maintenance needs. They also lower paper quality with defects like holes, spots, and uneven surfaces. Frequent cleaning cycles and unexpected downtime drive up costs, while higher water and chemical use creates sustainability concerns for mills. Specialized detergents and cleaning aids are key to tackling these challenges, ensuring efficient deposit removal and smooth production.
Properties and Benefits
Banmark’s detergents and cleaning aids are designed to handle contamination challenges in the paper and board industry. Each solution removes deposits effectively while maintaining operational efficiency.
- Surfactant-based and solvent cleaners effectively break down and remove stickies, resins, and ink residues, keeping equipment clean and operational.
- Acidic and alkaline formulations are tailored to target specific deposit types, ensuring comprehensive cleaning across all stages of production.
- Low-foam and high-efficiency solutions enable rapid, thorough cleaning while reducing production disruptions, allowing mills to resume operations quickly.
- Foam and surface cleaners provide thorough coverage and deep cleaning of equipment surfaces, effectively removing contaminants and ensuring optimal performance.
Key benefits of Banmark’s high-performance detergents and cleaning aids include:
- Enhanced machine runnability, reducing contamination-related problems and maintaining production flow.
- Minimized downtime and maintenance costs, with fewer stoppages and longer intervals between cleanings.
- Improved paper quality, ensuring defect-free products.
- Lowered energy and raw material consumption in certain cases, supporting more sustainable production practices.
- Extended equipment lifespan, with less wear and tear caused by fouling.
By addressing both immediate and long-term challenges, these solutions empower mills to achieve greater reliability and operational efficiency.
Usage and Applications
Banmark’s detergents and cleaning aids are versatile and effective in multiple applications across the paper and board industry:
- Short circulation cleaning involves quickly cycling cleaning solutions through a system to remove debris and residue efficiently.
- Pulp lines cleaning targets the removal of pitch, extractives, and other deposits, ensuring smoother operations and improved product quality.
- Paper machine clothing like felts and wires, preventing fiber and filler deposits from affecting machine performance.
- Press and drying sections, removing dirt and deposits that reduce heat transfer and efficiency.
- Coating and sizing equipment, cleaning dried residues that impact coating quality.
- Recycled fiber processes, tackling sticky residues and possible ink contamination that disrupt recycling.
These application strategies ensure mills achieve consistent results, maintaining machine uptime and product quality.
