Gyroclean Rotary Cleaner

The Gyroclean is an advance over conventional reverse cleaners for removal of lightweight contaminants. Fast becoming the standard in deinking, the capabilities of the cleaner are now being recognized in applications such as OCC stock preparation, virgin pulp and approach flow.

In these applications, the cleaner provides an excellent solution to removing lightweight contaminants. But in other cases, such as tea bag, cigarette papers and currency, the system is the only solution to the complete removal of lightweights.

The cleaner delivers these advantages in removing contaminants:

• High Efficiency: Remove up to 99% of all lightweight contaminants, including polyethylene, polystyrenes, stickies and hotmelts.
• No Fiber Loss: The system offers contaminant removal with virtually no fiber loss, eliminating the requirement for expensive fiber-saving stages.
• No Dilution: Eliminate contaminants without increasing thickening and pumping requirements. The system processes pulp at up to 2% consistency.
• Single-Stage Operation: Because of its remarkable efficiency at operating consistencies, the system saves valuable floor space and eliminates the capital cost of installing multistage reverse cleaning systems.
• Efficient Air Removal: Air is separated from the slurry by the same process that removes contaminants. Because the air is removed with the reject, uses save on capital equipment for subsequent thickening.
• Low Installed Cost: Complete removal of lightweights is a single process without fiber loss and without dilution makes for greater system efficiencies and significant savings in cost.
