Kappa AssayPlus™ Bringing Kappa Measurement to the Next Level Kappa AssayPlus™
Welcome to the Next Level in Kappa Technology and Lower Cost Kappa Number Determination Powered by PAPRICAN™. The Kappa AssayPlus™ is an automated solution for Kappa number determination as a measure of lignin content in pulp and paper processes.
The Kappa methodology utilized was developed in partnership with PAPRICAN (Pulp and Paper Research Institute of Canada), where the protocol and system have been rigorously tested (see “Kappa number testing with better repeatability and lower cost”, 2004 PAPTAC Annual Meeting Proceedings, C-111.). The Kappa AssayPlus™ system will fully automate the analysis of up to 17 samples on its robust AutoMax™ sampler. Man-Tech understands that the pulping, oxygen delignification and extraction processes, require constant and reliable Kappa Number Tests in order to maintain good process control. Now with the successful automation of the Kappa methodology, pulp labs can free up operator/technician time, reduce chemical costs, calibrate on-line automated Kappa number analyzers and improve analytical confidence.
