08/10 Challenge A US paper mill installed Kadant Johnson stationary syphons, greatly reducing the amount of blow-through steam. However, the thermocompressors were not replaced at the same time and the mill ended up using more high pressure motive steam to recompress its blow-through steam resulting in unnecessary use of high-value energy. Solution Kadant Johnson supplied properly sized, high-efficiency thermocompressors, new pressure transmitters, managed differential pressure control, and anti-choke logic. Thermocompressors are used to recompress low-pressure steam and discharge steam at a higher pressure. Recent advances in the design of Kadant Johnson thermocompressors minimize the consumption of high- pressure motive steam while maximizing the entrainment of
