"The exceptional filtration offered by the Petax filtration system, removing almost all of the suspended solids over 30 microns in size in the filtrate, is achieved without the addition of chemical flocculants, fiber sweetener stock, or precoats," stated Ron Chambers, managing director of Kadant UK. "The past performance of a Petax system at a sister mill in Thailand provided strong support and rationale for the purchase of these two units by Siam Kraft Industry. We are pleased to see the value our customers place on Kadant's water management solutions to reduce water consumption and effluent in the papermaking process."
Kadant UK Ltd. is a provider of doctor blades, doctor blade holders, and doctoring systems for papermaking and other industrial processes. The division's water management products are applied to the cleaning of forming and press fabrics and the filtration of process water, while its fluid handling products, including steam systems and related components, are used to optimize heat transfer in rotating cylinders and fluid-handling systems.
