Goulds Pumps and GL&V Announce TRI-O™ Mixer Marketing Agreement
Montreal, Quebec, Canada - Goulds Pumps of Seneca Falls, NY, USA, and GL&V Pulp Group Inc., Nashua, NH jointly announce a Marketing, Sales and Service agreement for a new high intensity chemical mixer for application on medium consistency pulp. Under this agreement the TRI-O™ Mixer developed by Goulds will be represented in the Americas by GL&V.
The TRI-O™ Mixer uses a unique chemical pre-mix injection coupled with a patented Doubleshear™ Rotor and stationary component combination to reach the highest measured mixing effectiveness demonstrated by any mixer to date. The mixer can be applied in oxygen delignification, reinforced oxygen extraction, chlorine dioxide, and hydrogen peroxide applications. Mills will realize operating cost reductions through increased mixing efficiency and reduced power costs when compared with most current mixer installations across the industry.
"The Pulp Industry has been waiting on an improved medium consistency chemical/pulp mixer that would reduce the horsepower consumption and deliver a higher mixer efficiency than the current level of products available for some time. Goulds new mixer development has clearly accomplished this goal and raises the bar in overall mixer performance. GL&V Group Inc. is delighted to strengthen our oxygen delignification and bleach plant process system by incorporating this powerful product in our portfolio" - Commented Bill Mahoney, Vice President and General Manager GL&V Pulping Group.
