Metso to supply cooking plant to Estonian mill
Metso´s scope of supply covers all main equipment for a displacement batch cooking plant, as well as a process control system.By replacing old equipment with a new cooking plant the Kehra mill is able to increase the capacity and at the same time considerably reduce the mill´s environmental impact. The reduction of CO2 emissions at the Kehra mill will be around 35 percent. The water consumption will drop by 1.3 million cubic meters annually, and both wood and chemical consumption will decrease. The project will also enable Horizon Pulp & Paper to make energy savings worth approximately two million Euros annually.Horizon Pulp & Paper produces a wide range of unbleached paper products for the packaging industry. The product range is based on virgin softwood pulp. Horizon Pulp & Paper is part of the Singaporean Tolaram Group. The value of Metso's order is over five million Euros.
