• Retention agents: Paper is initially just an extremely watery pulp made of fibres and water. Retention agents ensure that the water is removed during paper production without the fibres also disappearing.  
• Dyes: To compensate for the natural yellow tint of paper, dyes are added to the base paper pulp to emphasise the blue content. This leads to the brilliant, well-known white colour of paper.  
• Biocides: In the paper machine, biocides prevent slime formers and thus the dreaded and expensive formation of lumps. This allows the process to run smoothly.  

The chemicals are often stored in so-called intermediate bulk containers (IBCs). These containers are changed as soon as the chemicals are used up. The container change must take place safely and without interrupting the flow of substances so that no one is endangered, and production continues smoothly.

With DULCODOS SAFE-IBC from ProMinent, paper manufacturers can safely store and empty their chemicals and meter them without interruption. The special metering and emptying station for intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) ensures almost complete residual emptying.

The advantages of using ProMinent’s DULCODOS SAFE-IBC for paper and pulp manufacturers:

• High occupational safety
  The DULCODOS SAFE-IBC is safely set up on a special, under-ride collection tray construction. Drip quantities can thus be reliably collected and cannot escape at the installation site. The chemical container can be conveniently changed while the process is supplied without interruption from the 200-litre intermediate container. 
• More process reliability
  An integrated buffer container enables uninterrupted metering with sufficient time for changing the container in the process. Optionally, a fill level measurement with an alarm message can be used. 
• Compliance with laws and regulations
  The station complies with the amended legislation for liquids hazardous to water according to the German AwSV (Ordinance on Installations for Handling Substances Hazardous to Water) and has a valid DIBt approval (German Institute for Building Materials Technology) for all substances named there in media list 40.  
• Sustainability
  Due to the almost complete emptying of the IBC, virtually no waste or residual chemicals remain.
