Dexon’s Pulp and Paper Industry Inspection Services

What is Pulp and Paper Industry Inspection and Why is it Important? 

The pulp and paper industry relies on complex machinery and high-pressure systems that operate under extreme conditions. Equipment such as pressure vessels, boilers, digesters, and pipelines are exposed to high temperatures, corrosive chemicals, and mechanical stress. Regular inspections are essential to ensure operational efficiency, prevent unexpected failures, and maintain compliance with industry safety standards. Dexon Technology provides advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) services tailored to the unique needs of the pulp and paper industry, helping operators detect defects before they lead to costly downtime or failures. 

How Dexon's Pulp and Paper Industry Inspection Services Ensure Asset Integrity 

Dexon Technology employs state-of-the-art inspection techniques to assess and maintain critical assets in pulp and paper manufacturing.

• Dryer Inspection: Ensuring proper function and identifying surface defects in drying systems. 

• FRP Vessel, Tank, and Pipe Assessment: Inspecting fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) components for leaks, delamination, and stress fractures. 

• Coker Inspection: Identifying wear, thermal fatigue, and corrosion in coking units. 

• Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) Inspection: Assessing tank integrity and corrosion levels to ensure safe storage of chemicals. 

• Digester Evaluation: Checking for stress corrosion cracking and material degradation in high-temperature environments. 

• Boiler Tubing Inspection: Detecting thinning, cracking, and deposits that may compromise performance. 

• Ammonia Tank Inspection: Ensuring compliance and integrity of ammonia storage and handling systems. 

• O2 Black Liquor Reactor Examination: Evaluating reactor walls and components for signs of wear and degradation. 

• Tank Wall and Floor Assessments: Inspecting structural integrity and identifying potential leaks or weak points. 

• Suction, Press, and Felt Roller Inspection: Ensuring continuous paper production efficiency by detecting surface wear and mechanical damage. 

• Steam Valve Testing: Identifying issues such as leakage and corrosion in steam control systems. 

Methods Used in Dexon’s Pulp and Paper Inspections 

Dexon uses cutting-edge NDT techniques to ensure accurate assessments, including: 

• Eddy Current Testing (ECT): Detects surface cracks, corrosion, and coating variations in conductive materials. 

• Magnetic Particle Testing (MT): Identifies surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic components. 

• Penetrant Testing (PT): Locates cracks, porosity, and defects in non-porous materials. 

• Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT): Provides high-resolution imaging for flaw detection and material thickness measurements. 

• Radiographic Testing (RT): Uses X-rays or gamma rays to identify internal defects in welds and components. 

• Ultrasonic Testing (UT): Evaluates material thickness and detects internal flaws with high precision. 

• Visual Testing (VT): Conducts direct and remote inspections to assess surface conditions and identify visible defects. 

Inspection Modes 

• In-Service Inspection: Conducting inspections while equipment remains operational, reducing downtime and ensuring continuous production. 

• Offline Inspection: Performing more detailed assessments when equipment is shut down for maintenance or repairs, allowing for comprehensive analysis.
