Valmet has introduced the new Valmet Polymer Concentration Measurement (Valmet PCM), which is the first advanced optical inline polymer measurement for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, as well as pulp and paper processes. Real-time, continuous polymer concentration data creates new opportunities for process optimization, such as more accurate polymer dosage, savings in polymer usage, faster reaction to process disturbances, among others.
Knowing the actual polymer levels allows facilities to significantly reduce polymer consumption through accurate preparation and dosing. Steady polymer concentration in turn improves flocculation, clarification, dewatering and other key processes. Better performance saves energy and lowers sludge transport and incineration needs, furthering the positive environmental and social impacts of efficient wastewater treatment.
