Kvaerner Pulping is to supply a complete fiberline, including COMPACT COOKINGTM, washing and bleaching, rated at 3000 tons/day. This will be the largest single-line fiberline in the world. The design, manufacturing of proprietary equipment and project management services will be supplied from Karlstad, Sweden.
Aker Kvaerner is working with the client to finalise the schedule and the financing for a RECOXTM recovery boiler rated at 5000 tons dry solids/day, which will also be the largest unit in the world. Kvaerner Power's contract for supply of the boiler will be confirmed at a later stage.
