Problem Description
The pulp desintegration has the highest
operational cost in the recycling paper
industry. The power consumption in the
pulper is directly related with the
impellers design, water/fiber quantities in
the chest, rotor velocity,
fiber/contaminants separation and the
segregation of the good quality fibers.

obviously, this is extreme
conditions,
Re= 10 and 100000
the sketch has some kind of
baffles and the original industrial
chest has not baffles. We need
some design of baffles to
redesign the chest

Conclusion and next steps
• Study of MultiFrontier for automatic redesign of the impeller
and the baffles. IPPEL is asking us for the continuing
improvements
GOALS:
• First step: reduction of 15 % of energy consumption without
fiber loss increase;
• Second step: increase of fiber segregation, that is, increase
of contaminants discharges with fiber quality increase.
