Billerud Skärblacka aims to strengthen the mill for the future by improving environmental performance and energy efficiency as well as to enable future company expansion.
Metso’s delivery will allow for an increase in production capacity in the future.
Through the support of Metso, the mill’s energy efficiency will be improved leading to a reduction in consumption of fossil oil and external biofuels.
The project will include two phases, and the entire project is scheduled for completion at the end of 2013.
The first phase includes the installation of the new evaporation plant and the second to upgrade the recovery boiler.
