Paper mills face constant pressure to reduce waste-handling costs while meeting increasingly strict environmental regulations. Diamond T’s centrifuge systems rise to the challenge with superior dewatering performance that reduces sludge volumes and handles difficult-to-process streams before they overwhelm belt and screw presses.
Whether you need to rent or buy, Diamond T’s Alfa Laval centrifuge systems are specifically configured for paper industry applications. Our equipment handles what conventional technologies can’t, from challenging de-inking sludge with its abrasive particles to the biological waste that overwhelms traditional processes.
Unlike filter presses and settling systems, our centrifuges continuously process variable waste streams without fouling, blinding, or performance issues. Each system comes complete with custom-selected pumps, polymer dosing, and control systems matched to your specific waste characteristics, with availability in as little as 48 hours.
Paper manufacturers nationwide trust Diamond T when conventional separation methods underperform. As Alfa Laval’s Master Distributor, we’ve specialized in solving the industry’s unique challenges through decades of field experience with mills of all types.
Our approach combines proven centrifuge technology with paper-specific expertise to deliver solutions that succeed where others struggle.
We offer:
As liquid-solid separation experts, Diamond T provides field-proven centrifuge technology that makes pulp and paper waste management more efficient and cost-effective. We help reduce disposal costs, recover valuable fibers, and support environmental compliance goals.
We can assist with a wide range of applications, including:
Fiber recovery captures valuable materials lost in wastewater streams, generating immediate economic and environmental benefits. Recovering short fibers from white water and process streams reduces raw material costs, cuts disposal volumes, simplifies permit compliance, and demonstrates environmental stewardship.
Many paper mill waste streams contain recoverable materials with real market value when properly separated and processed. For instance:
The key is separation technology that produces consistent, properly dried products that meet quality standards.
Paper mills employ various approaches for waste treatment and volume reduction:
Centrifuges overcome the limitations of traditional systems: enclosed processing prevents odors, continuous operation handles variable streams, and drier solids reduce disposal costs while enabling reuse. Compared to presses or settling systems, centrifuges offer faster processing, smaller footprints, and reliable performance with difficult biological sludges.
Our paper industry systems feature Alfa Laval’s industrial centrifuge technology, integrated with complete process support equipment:
Centrifuge-based solutions address the operational and financial challenges your mill faces, including:
Absolutely. Every system is configured to handle your specific waste characteristics, including composition, solids content, fiber types, chemical properties, and flow rates. We analyze waste samples, select the appropriate centrifuge models, and optimize operating parameters to deliver the dewatering performance and discharge quality required for your operation, ensuring cost-effective disposal and compliance.
