An Effective, Reliable, Self-Buffering and Economical Way to Control pH
CO2 Replaces Mineral Acid to Reduce pH in Pulp & Paper Production
The Benefits of Carbon Dioxide
Replacing mineral acids with carbon dioxide for pH reduction offers many benefits. By no longer buying or storing chemicals that can do more harm than good, you are making your site safer while also reducing costs. This improved process can help you manage peak demand and capacity increases, increase plant flexibility, and lessen your impact on the environment. And when you’re supplied by one of the world's largest carbon dioxide suppliers, you can explore this alternative with confidence.
