In the paper industry, where water consumption and energy use are significant operational challenges, innovation is key to driving sustainability and efficiency. Traditional sealing water systems waste vast amounts of water and energy, leaving businesses searching for smarter solutions. The Flow Control SZ8 SealCooler™ thermosiphon system, is a revolutionary product and process innovation from Finnish company Flow Control, designed to address these challenges head-on.

The Traditional Challenge

Every paper mill operates hundreds of pumps, all of which require sealing water for lubrication, pressurization, and cooling. These systems typically waste large amounts of water, much of which flows directly into wastewater treatment plants. In fact, sealing water alone accounts for up to 10% of all wastewater in the industry. This not only burdens the environment but also increases energy consumption at wastewater plants, leading to higher costs and less efficient processes.

The Game-Changing Solution

The Flow Control SZ8 SealCooler™ thermosiphon system introduces a closed-circulation system, designed for use with dual mechanical seals. Instead of relying on continuous water flow, it uses only 8-9 liters of water in a sealed loop, reducing waste and energy consumption significantly. But the benefits don’t stop there:

1. Sustainability and Efficiency:
   By reducing the amount of wastewater processed at treatment plants, the system cuts energy consumption and streamlines wastewater processes, leading to even greater environmental savings.
2. Extended Seal Life:
   The closed-loop system keeps seals pressurized, lubricated, and cooled, preventing dry running and minimizing wear and tear. This reduces the need for maintenance and extends the life of the seals.
3. Ease of Use:
   SealCooler is easy to install and maintain, with mill personnel able to handle routine upkeep. Delivered directly from FlowControl’s factory in Muurame, Finland, where many flow technology leaders are based, the product is tailored for quick adoption.
4. Proven Performance:
   With over 3,000 units already delivered, SealCooler is a tested and trusted solution for businesses looking to enhance efficiency and sustainability.

More Than a Product—A Complete Process Innovation

SealCooler is not just another product—it’s a revolutionary process innovation designed to help companies improve sustainability, enhance water savings, and boost overall process efficiency. By replacing outdated technology with SealCooler, businesses can quickly achieve meaningful improvements while reducing environmental impact.
