Technology for Reject Treatment and Recovery ATREX® G-series provides a highly efficient, flexible and compact process to treat the reject flows from the paper and boars machines. This reject flow, which contains valuable minerals and fibers, can amount from 1 up to even 4% of the total tonnage of the paper or board production line, and is in many cases hauled to the landfill. With the ATREX® system most of the valuable minerals and fibers can be recovered and reused in the process. MORE THAN 95% OF THE REJECT STREAM RECOVERED BACK TO PROCESS FAST RETURN ON INVESTMENT SAME PROCESS CAN BE USED TO RECOVER CLEANER REJECT, SCREEN REJECT AND COATING EFFLUENT STABLE OPERATION COMPACT AND DURABLE PROCESS DESIGN PRE-ASSEMBLED AND SKID MOUNTED.
