Comment Print

Graz, Austria 07 December 2017 -- International technology Group ANDRITZ has received an order from Stora Enso Imatra Mills to supply a new flash drying line, including an ANDRITZ Twin Wire Press, fluffer, and flash dryer.

Start-up of the new plant, which has a production capacity of 400 admt/d, is scheduled for the first quarter of 2019.

ANDRITZ's well-proven flash drying technology ensures minimum energy consumption and highest pulp quality. As a leading supplier of flash dryers, ANDRITZ will be supplying a drying system for gentle drying of mechanical pulp fibers, at the same time using the energy flows available to optimum benefit. The high-efficiency cyclones in combination with a scrubber will reduce emissions to the lowest possible level.

The ANDRITZ Twin Wire Press allows for highest dryness ahead of the flash dryer. Over 600 presses sold and installed around the world prove superior dewatering performance for any kind of fibrous material at any freeness level and with high discharge consistencies of up to 50%.

Stora Enso Imatra Mills, a member of the Stora Enso Group, consists of two production units: Kaukopää and Tainionkoski. Together, they employ approximately 1,000 people and produce one million tons of board and paper annually. More than 90 per cent of production is exported, mostly to countries in Europe, but a substantial share is also exported to Southeast Asia. Imatra produces mainly liquid packaging board for beverage cartons and food service board for paper cups and various food packagings.
