HC DIGESTER
The HC DIGESTER is a horizontal continuous digester with screw feeder, designed specially for rapid cooking agricultural fibre such as bagasse, jute, kenaf, straw and other agro residues in the production of high quality pulp. The primary advantages of this equipment will be enhanced yield and uniform pulp quality, reduced steam and chemical consumption, amenability to process automation and reduction in manpower and space.
Performance data
Main advantages
ADVANTAGES:
I. Greater.processing flexibility, including the ability to employ any normal cooking liquor without change the digester equipment.
2. Maximum uniformity of pulp quality due to thorough and continuous mixing of chemicals. and steam with fibrous raw materials .
3. Uniform raw material consumption, limiting the size of the "in process"material storage facilities.
4. Uniform steam and power requirements which reduce peak load demand in the steam and power plant and allow operation at high load factors.
5. Low steam requirements because of low liquor ratio and continuous heat recovery from blow tank cyclone
6. Uniform liquor demand, avoiding large storage facilities.
7. Potentially higher yields or equivalent pulp quality.
8. Small space requirements.
9. High capacity per unit due to compacting the bulky raw material and operating at high pressure and temperature.
10. Low labour cost because of greater productivity per man hour of labour.
11. The possibility of increasing production. in steps, by relatively simple and economical additions to the unit
itself without disturbing other equipment: without requiring any additional building space ana without increasing the number of operators required.
