Pulp and Paper

Initial Client Problem

Our client was a pulp and paper company in Karawang. Paper machines often had seal leakage, thus allowing water and paper powder to enter the tank and contaminate the oil. The type of oil used for lubrication was Mineral Oil ISO VG 160. The lubrication oil needed to be purified due to the high water content with rH 85% and the number of contaminant particles was high with a cleanliness level of ISO 22/20/18 (minimum standard is ISO 18/16/13). The contamination caused problems in the lubrication system and damaged the oil. Our client targeted the water content in the oil to be 500 ppm and the oil cleanliness level reached minimum standard.

Our Solution

Tekno Fluida Indonesia made a Dewatering System DS-200 functioning as Oil Purifier Mobile Unit with a Nominal Flow Rate of 200 L / min. The oil used was Insulating Oil for lubrication with 3 micron filter and a water sensor. The post-treatment water content was rH 15% and the cleanliness was ISO 18/16/13.
