Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of specialty paper production technology, specifically a circulating refrigeration device. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of specialty papers, certain pulps require a high degree of freeness to achieve specific performance indicators. The pulp generates a significant amount of heat during the beating process. If this heat is not cooled and dissipated in a timely manner, it can lead to accelerated cell wall breakage, affecting paper quality. Conventional pulp tank designs and production processes generally do not consider cooling measures. Due to the lack of effective temperature control, prolonged beating at high temperatures can damage fibers, consequently affecting paper strength, smoothness, and other physical properties. Furthermore, high-temperature environments can accelerate microbial growth, affecting the hygiene of the pulp and even causing safety issues during production.
[0003] Therefore, based on the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a circulating refrigeration device. Utility Model Content
