Case Studies
  • SIL process pump for emergency showers in pulp mill
    Södra Cell in Mönsterås is one of the world’s most modern pulp mills. It has a production capacity of 750’000 tons per year of softwood and hardwood pulp. The mill’s core business is pulp production, but it is also an important source of green electricity.

  • Excellent performance of SIL inline centrifugal pump
    Our customer, a major producer of pulp and wood-free uncoated paper, needed a small pump for pumping water into two coolers. Sulzer delivered an SIL inline single-stage centrifugal pump that works very well also in this application. Read the case study.

  • Energy efficiency of pumping systems
    Pumping systems account for more than 20% of the world’s electrical energy demand, and in certain industrial plant operations they can be responsible for between 25% and 90% of the energy usage. Improving the energy efficiency of the pumping system will reduce production costs and support green credentials. Read the whole article.
