In papermaking, black liquor treatment is a critical process. However, excessive foam often plagues production—leading to inefficiency, energy waste, and even equipment damage. Finding a fast and long-lasting foam control solution has become a top priority for many manufacturers.

Why Does Foam Occur?

Black liquor contains lignin, resins, and other organic compounds that generate stubborn foam during agitation or transportation. Conventional defoamers offer only temporary relief, allowing foam to reoccur and disrupt operations.
