Silverton Pulp & Papers Private Limited, leading manufacturers of high-grade writing & printing paper and packaging grade paper, has received RunEco Vacuum System and other energy-efficient technologies from global technology provider Runtech Systems.
The delivery includes three EP600 Turbo Blowers with EcoDrop Water Separators. In addition, EcoFlow Dewatering Measurement Systems will be delivered to PM4 and PM5. The new PM5, relocated in Muzaffarnagar site, will produce 100,000 TPA of printing and writing grades. The start-up is scheduled for 2025. PM4 has operated with EP Turbo Blowers since 2019.
Watch: In Pursuit of Lesser Water Footprint
“We have worked together with the customer for a long time, and they have good experiences with our energy-efficient technology. We are delighted to continue the good cooperation with Silverton. Replacing the liquid ring pumps at PM4 resulted in energy savings of more than 50 percent. With EP Turbo Blowers, PM5 will benefit from this adjustable, water-free technology right from the start,” says Tommi Leander, Sales Manager, Runtech Systems.
Switching to EP Turbo Blowers is a game-changer in energy efficiency. In numerous rebuild projects, energy savings of 40-70 percent have been achieved when compared to traditional vacuum systems. Energy efficiency, a key feature of the solution, comes from both turbo technology itself and the ability to measure water removal & adjust the vacuum to the optimal level.

EP Turbo Blowers are designed to operate efficiently across a wide range of vacuum levels and air flows allowing paper mills to optimize vacuum levels. High speed motors, driven by frequency converters, allow a typical EP Turbo Blower to provide vacuum levels between 30 and 70 kPa. A wide range of impeller designs allows highly efficient levels across the operating range.
The EP Turbo Blower’s water-free design not only reduces water and chemical consumption within the vacuum system but also eliminates the need for water-related equipment like cooling towers and circulating pumps.
