Bray Extends Valve Life by 4x in Demanding Recycle Pulp & Paper Application

In the recycled paper industry, a cyclone/junk trap is positioned immediately after the pulper, its primary function is to remove heavy, non-fibrous contaminants from the pulp slurry before it moves on to the screens and cleaners. As wastepaper is broken down into a slurry in the pulper, it often contains foreign materials such as staples, glass, stones, plastic fragments, or metal bits. These materials, if not removed, can damage downstream machinery and reduce the efficiency and quality of the recycling process.
