Pipeline in the liquor recovery process

Density
Pipeline in the liquor recovery process

Overview

The black liquor resulting from pulp cooking is regenerated and fed back into the digester. Liquor regeneration comprises several process steps. The processes take place at high temperatures and pressures; the media are aggressive and sometimes abrasive. Density measurement of the liquor in the pipelines is required for eco-friendly and energy-efficient process control.
