Potential Solvers:

1. Air Blade:Increase dryness out of the press section and reduce energy consumption

- The Air Blade removes water out of the grooves of the grooved rolls and suction press rolls thus increasing the dewatering off the press section. An increase in press bone dryness of 1 – 3 % is typical depending on the applications.
- This will also provide improvements in moisture profiles of 20 – 50 %.
- A reduction in sheet breaks have been seen with all Air Blade installations.
