Real-time water metals data for pulp and paper
Paper machines are water machines — metals in process water drive deposits, brightness problems, and effluent obligations, all faster than a weekly composite can see.
Where continuous data changes the job
Deposit and scale control
Calcium and barium chemistry fouls machines and fabrics; continuous trends catch saturation drifting before deposits form.
Process-water quality
Iron and manganese stain product and feed deposits — live data closes the loop on removal and recycle-water quality.
Effluent metals visibility
Permit metals trending continuously between lab samples, with a defensible time-stamped record.
Commonly monitored metals
Choose up to 5 concurrent analytes for your application — every metal links to its own page.
“The quicker you can have real time results when it comes to any kind of parameters that are compliant, the better off we are. If you wait for the lab, you’re already out of compliance before you get their results.”
Pulp & Paper FAQ
Why do metals matter to a paper machine?
Deposits and brightness: calcium and barium scale foul machines and fabrics, iron and manganese stain product — and closed water loops concentrate all of it.
Can AquaValid live in mill water?
Harsh, warm, additive-laden water is within the design envelope; matrix characterization from your actual water comes first, as everywhere.
What about our effluent permit?
Continuous trends on your permit metals between accredited samples — the lab remains the record; AquaValid adds the visibility.

Built to run itself
Self-cleaning, self-calibrating, one reagent — and a ~15-minute daily check is all it asks of your operators.
