Ackumen^TM MCA-i^TM

The monochloramine solution informed by advanced sensing technology and actionable insights

As a manufacturer of quality packaging, you face some daunting challenges these days: the pressure to use less water, rising contamination in recycled OCC, and greater reliance on anaerobic digesters for effluent treatment, just to name a few. Unfortunately, adapting to these realities can mean adding more chemistries which, in turn, can increase process variability. And that can mean unscheduled shutdowns, not to mention additional costs.

That’s why Buckman has introduced an all-new monochloramine program called Ackumen MCA-i, a breakthrough, chemical/digital solution that uses advanced sensing technology with actionable insights to stabilize the wet-end process, dramatically improve performance, and reduce overall chemical costs.

A superior microbicide. The ultimate way to manage it.

Ackumen MCA-i combines our best-in-class monochloramine chemistries with state-of-the-art sensing technology, cloud based data analytics, 24/7 expert monitoring and analysis, remote dosage adjustment and accurate predictive modeling to take the work—and the guesswork—out of managing your paper machine systems.

Dosing has never been so precise.

With Ackumen MCA-i, accurate sensor-controlled dosing is tied to production rates, grade changes, pH, ORP, chlorine residual, freshwater usage and more. Plus, MCA-i enables you to maintain broke health via a consistent dosage as well as modulated treatment based on different types of output. So you can increase process stability, efficiency, and cleanliness.

Smart maintenance keeps MCA-i doing its job.

Ackumen MCA-i probes and sensors are equipped to indicate hours in service. This enables the Insights Lab to track calibrations and overall health and create a service calendar for components to be cleaned, calibrated or replaced. These parts are delivered to you automatically. So you have no unnecessary downtime due to equipment breakdown or extended maintenance.

Safety features help eliminate worry.

Ackumen MCA-i comes with feed equipment designed for consistent, accurate delivery with a wide application range and flexible dosing options. Even more important, it offers industry-leading safety. All unit alarms come to your phone. And our feed equipment is the only technology on the market with these advanced safety features:
• Leak detection
• A built-in separator to keep neat chemicals apart in the case of a line break or other issue
• Automatic flushing of all application lines in case power is lost
• Regular inspection by Buckman personnel to ensure efficient, safe operation

With Ackumen MCA-i, the potential for human-chemical contact is greatly reduced. And, Buckman’s MCA chemistry is more environmentally friendly, reducing the potential toxicity of your mill’s effluent and producing far fewer potential carcinogens than other treatments. Chemical discharge to lakes and rivers can be significantly reduced.

See. Understand. Solve.

Globally, more than 300 customers have switched to Buckman MCA. Now, with Ackumen MCA-i, mills can use the power of actionable insights to enhance performance even more. Ackumen MCA-i can help you stabilize your overall papermaking process and improve the quality and consistency of your effluent. You can boost performance from your functional chemistries and lower your total cost of operation while improving uptime and protecting your equipment. And you can improve the overall quality of your paper, increasing your yields and margin.
