BTG to supply online kappa analyzer to Iggesund Paperboard AB


Iggesund Paperboard AB decided to opt for an online Fibber Kappa analyzer from BTG to measure fiber kappa at the outlet of the continuous digester of the hardwood fiberline of its integrated pulp mill in Iggesund, Sweden.
Online Kappa analysis at the digester blowline is performed under extreme process conditions and the measurement is critical for the control of the cooking process. BTG has a proven capability of providing highly reliable Kappa measurements using Single Point Kappa technology operating 24/7 with significantly higher frequency of measurements compared to a traditional multipoint Kappa analyzer. Today, over 150 units of these state of the art reliable fiber kappa analyzers are running globally, allowing BTG customers to optimize their costs.
