Parameter controlled flow<br />

in continuous processes<br />

Case illustration:<br />

Water and chemical comsumption<br />

on washing and<br />

bleaching line<br />

Concept Dosing of water and chemicals <strong>to</strong> continuous processes is most often kept at<br />

fixed level governed by <strong>the</strong> recipe. These levels are typically determined by<br />

empirical findings from worst case operating situations implying overdosage<br />

most of <strong>the</strong> time.<br />

Optimal dosing of water and chemicals <strong>to</strong> individual sections in a continuous<br />

machine could ideally be governed by <strong>the</strong> instantaneous state of effluent or<br />

product quality. The dosing should thus be controlled on <strong>the</strong> basis of <strong>the</strong> measurement<br />

of <strong>the</strong> relevant parameter for <strong>the</strong> specific process e.g. pH, turbidity,<br />

absorbance, conductivity, redox potential etc. On-line measurements and continuous<br />

control of <strong>the</strong>se parameters exist in related fields of applications, and<br />

<strong>the</strong> possibility of implementation should be judged in each specific case.<br />

Improvement potentials Reduction of consumption of water and chemicals.<br />

Relevance All companies with continuous machines.
