Modelling drying process in paper manufacturing

24 May 2021, Version 1

Abstract

Euroresinas produces different types of resin-impregnated paper at their factories. After the paper goes through the resin bath, it undergoes a drying process which is a fundamental step in the process. Although the temperature is controlled by a heating system, the actual values inside the chain of dryers are only measured at a few points away from where the paper is. The company would like to be able to model the temperature profile inside the dryers to better understand problems such as dusting and sticking, as well as the optimization of different variables related to bathing and drying times and energy consumption.
