Pulp &
Paper
Pulp & paper mills are among the highest consumers of treated raw water — water turns fibres such as cellulose, wood, hemp, recycled paper, bagasse, bamboo and rice stalk into pulp. At the same time, paper manufacturing generates some of the worst-quality wastewater of any industry.
With 27+ years serving pulp & paper mills, Ahura Aqua optimises water and energy costs across the Production, Utility and Wastewater processes — recovering up to 93% of daily wastewater and eliminating the rest for Zero Liquid Discharge.
High-quality, consistent treated water for the pulping and paper-forming process — suspended loads, hardness and microbial content removed so fibre quality and machine runnability stay high.
Demineralised boiler feed water and conditioned cooling-tower make-up for the mill’s steam and utility systems — protecting boilers and heat-exchange equipment from scale and corrosion.
Primary, biological and tertiary treatment of high-volume mill effluent — removing high BOD, colour, TSS, reduced sulphur and chlorinated organic compounds to meet stringent discharge norms.
Recover up to 93% of daily wastewater for reuse as mill process water; the remaining concentrate is evaporated via MEE / MVR for complete ZLD — cutting both operational and capital cost.
Recovering treated wastewater delivers major savings in both operational and capital cost. The remaining concentrated, untreatable stream is evaporated via Multi-Effect Evaporation (MEE) or Mechanical Vapour Recompression (MVR) — achieving complete ZLD and resolving the disposal & regulatory burden mills face.
