FEEDING SYSTEM COMPRISING PUMPS IN PARALLEL FOR A CONTINUOUS DIGESTER

摘要

The feed system is for a continuous digester where at least two pumps are arranged in parallel in the bottom of a pre-treatment vessel and a liquid level of at least 10 meters is established. The system makes it possible to provide a feed system with an improved accessibility and more reliable operation, and to operate the main part of the pumps at optimal efficiency even if the production capacity is reduced.
