LocationNova Campina – SPApproximate investmentUS$ 10 million
Scope
  • Replace a washing filter
  • Multidisciplinary detailing

The main challenge

Multidisciplinary detailing to install a double washing filter: tying the new flow diagram into the existing process, defining tie-in points, pipe sizes and flows at the battery limit, and generating every process list.

Pumps were specified from flow and head, and the 3D model was built with Engecell's own tools, at a more competitive cost than the usual solution in the pulp and paper industry.

Key success indicators

Finished in time for the scheduled shutdown
Engecell joined the client's US and Canada teams to meet its specific requirements
Maximum use of the existing installation, with component relocation assessed

Engecell's challenges

Fitting a new-generation double filter into the area of an old machine
Completing the flow diagram data and generating the lists
Selecting process pumps
Specifying materials and valves
Using a 3D solution at a compatible cost
