3.1 Power generation

Energy in paper mills is used in the form of steam and electricity.

It is produced from condensate returning from the drying cylinders and from a clear water make-up to compensate for steam losses and boiler blowdown. The water required for steam production requires advanced treatment with softeners (filter and ion exchange resins) or demineralization chains (filter and reverse osmosis).
