ArjoWiggins Dalum Papir in Denmark, was the winner of the Green Energy and Biofuels Award, at the PPI Awards gala in Brussels recently. Dalum Paper is a leader in the recycled fine paper market and has become a green energy supplier of district heating. On average, 15 percent of all households in Odense consume recovered heat from the mill, allowing the city to close a coal-fired plant.Wanting to reduce the mill's energy consumption, a five-year project focused on capturing excess heat from paper production and implementing a new energy source. This investment in new technology to switch from natural gas to biofuel, along with optimizing existing equipment, changed the mission for the company. As a result, electricity consumption has been reduced by 13 percent, steam by 64 percent, and a 93 percent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions.The Green Energy and Biofuels Award is sponsored by Andritz. /AA
