Name of the Project
Iggesund mill evaporation plant and refurbishment.
Location
Iggesund, Sweden.
Client
Iggesund Paperboard, a subsidiary of Holmen Group.
Project Description
The project entails the supply of a new evaporation plant and rebuilding an existing evaporation plant for the pulp mill.
The new seven-effect high dry solids evaporation plant will have a capacity of 350 t/h. It will replace an old Andritz evaporation line from the 1970s and significantly enhance energy efficiency at the Iggesund mill. The state-of-the-art technology of the plant will improve the cleanliness of the condensates produced, which are reused in other processes in the pulp mill.
The existing evaporation plant will be rebuilt and upgraded to 220 t/h, with modern lamella technology in effects 1 and 2 to meet and exceed the plant’s original design data.
