This was very educational. I am about to install a 10 inch stainless steel knife gate valve as a pond release. Yes, I know, it's big time overkill but it was a pretty good deal. I did not realize that there was an allowable seepage rate but when I close it for the last time, I think I'll just throw a handful of bentonite past the valve before I shut it down and it will probably seal up on its own eventually. It won't get used after closing for years most likely.
There are several knife gate valves appropriate for use in pulp applications. For examples, see DeZurik's pulp and paper valve solutions guide. It may help: www.dezurik.com/files/7916/1413/4107/valve-solutions-guide-for-the-pulp--paper-industry-97.01-01.pdf
