5Application History
January 2007 ALEDco and ProMinent met with Hydro
Dynamics. Interest in Bello Zon chlorine
dioxide generator with opportunity in the paper
mill white water and broke system. A total of
35 pulpers in the plant. Total volume of white
water coming off the paper machines approximately
1.8 million GPD. CDVa generator selected.
6Problem/Opportunity
The contamination within the process system was
extreme, over 100M colonies/plate count. Severe
reduction in paper machine runnability,
production, and product quality. Disinfection of
the process water system a major issue. The
CDVa600 Bello Zon selected provides 32 lbs/day
chlorine dioxide.
7ProMinent Solution
In June of 2007, the Bello Zon installed and
offered on a 60 day trial basis. Owners
expectations surpassed prior to end of trial
period. The generator is being operated at 30
of capacity, or 1/8 lb/ton of production. Cost
of chemical program comparable to previous
chemical vendor. Plate counts with ClO2
typically at 40M colonies/plate. Paper machine
running cleaner, less deposit buildup.
Cleanliness reflected in increased
productivity/reduced machine down time.
