Pulp & Paper
Black liquor, condensate and process heat recovery equipment for pulp and paper mills.
What This Sector
Demands
Dolphin Group is an ADNOC-approved, ICV+ certified manufacturer of ASME Section VIII Div.1 and TEMA Class C evaporator heaters, condensate coolers and heat recovery exchangers for fibrous, scaling media. Operating from its Mussafah, Abu Dhabi facility for over 40 years, it delivers stainless and duplex-construction equipment to pulp and paper mills worldwide.
Fibrous fouling
Fibre and scale plug conventional exchangers; wide-gap and free-flow geometries keep mills running. A standard tube-gap exchanger dropped into this service will plug and lose duty far faster than one engineered for fibrous media.
Corrosive liquor service
Black and green liquor circuits demand stainless and duplex construction with qualified welds. Carbon steel equipment in this service corrodes quickly and shortens the interval between refurbishments.
Energy economy
Steam economy defines mill margins — recovered heat is the cheapest energy a mill can buy. An evaporator heater running below its steam economy target quietly erodes margin on every tonne produced.
What We Deliver for
Pulp & Paper
The specific heat exchange equipment and services we design, fabricate and maintain for this sector.
Plate Heat Exchangers
Gasketed, brazed and welded plate heat exchangers delivering maximum heat exchange in minimum footprint — supplied, serviced and regasketed in the UAE.
Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers
TEMA-compliant, ASME U-stamped shell & tube heat exchangers designed, fabricated and tested in Abu Dhabi — the workhorse of process heat exchange, built for service worldwide.
Chemical Cleaning
Liquor circuit and evaporator scale dissolution.
Proven in Pulp & Paper
Real outcomes from real pulp & paper projects — not catalogue claims.
Evaporator heater refurbishment
Heater bundle refurbished and returned to steam economy targets within a planned outage.
ADNOC-approved, ICV+ certified
Qualified to the procurement standards ADNOC group companies require, with in-country value that scores directly on mill operator tenders. Dolphin Group is one of roughly 70 ICV+ certified companies in the UAE, a distinction that separates us from vendors offering price alone.
Wide-gap geometry for fibrous, scaling media
Free-flow and wide-gap exchanger geometries are engineered at Mussafah specifically to resist fibre and scale plugging that stops conventional exchangers. A standard tube-gap unit dropped into this service plugs and loses duty far faster than one engineered for fibrous media from the outset.

40+ years of corrosive-liquor fabrication experience
Four decades of stainless and duplex construction with qualified welds inform every evaporator heater and cooler we build for black and green liquor service. That experience refurbished an evaporator heater bundle back to steam economy targets within a single planned outage.
