Steel storage tanks: ensuring efficiency and sustainability in the pulp and paper industry

The pulp and paper industry remains a fundamental pillar of global manufacturing, maintaining its relevance despite the growing trend of digitalization. The ongoing demand for paper-based products, particularly in sectors such as packaging, hygiene, and sustainable materials, continues to fuel the growth of this industry. This sustained demand necessitates the development of more efficient production processes and robust infrastructure.

Within the industry, steel storage tanks serve an indispensable function in managing and processing the critical chemicals and materials involved in production. Essential components, such as separators, blow tanks, condensate tanks, and black liquor tanks, are integral to the paper manufacturing process. Proper handling and storage of substances like black liquor, a byproduct of the kraft process, is vital for both operational efficiency and environmental compliance.
