Valmet will supply an upgrade of the washing process area for Stora Enso's Heinola fluting mill in Finland with the TwinRoll Evolution wash press (TRPE). The upgrade will improve the Heinola's Neutral-Sulfite Semi-Chemical (NSSC) line washing, which will result in a better product quality and strengthened competitive position. The installation is scheduled to start up during spring 2018, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.
The scope of delivery includes the Valmet Twinroll evolution wash press (TRPE) with basic engineering, training and site services as well as spare parts. The TRPE wash press features displacement washing and pressing to 30-32% consistency at 2.5-10% feed consistency. The TRPE wash press is ideal for applications where high washing efficiency and capacity are required.
Stora Enso's Heinola Fluting Mill produces semi-chemical fluting which is used as a raw material in the corrugated board industry.
Valmet is the leading global developer and supplier of process technologies, automation and services for the pulp, paper and energy industries.
