Austria-headed international technology major Andritz AG (ANDRITZ) has announced that it has received an order for a new HERB recovery boiler including advanced digitalization solutions to be installed at Moorim P&P’s pulp and paper mill in Ulsan, South Korea.
According to a statement, the contract is signed with power plant supplier SGC eTEC E&C and includes the engineering and main equipment supply for the boiler, digitalization solutions for maximum use of the boiler’s potential, and an ash treatment system.
Replacing two existing boiler units, the new HERB boiler will enable more efficient chemical recovery from the black liquor at lower emissions. Together with a new steam turbine, it will also significantly increase the mill’s renewable energy production.
Thus, the delivery will make mill operations more self-sufficient, economical, and sustainable.
This order is a result of long-lasting cooperation – ANDRITZ has provided process upgrades to Moorim P&P’s boilers for several years.
Our collaboration with ANDRITZ has already brought valuable continuous improvements to our Ulsan mill, said Kim Sangwoo, Executive Director, Moorim P&P.
HERB recovery boilers are part of ANDRITZ’s broad portfolio of sustainable products that the company keeps advancing and expanding.
This order is taking our relationship with Moorim P&P to the next level. We at ANDRITZ are grateful for the trust placed in our team and our technology, said Henrik Wikstedt, VP of Recovery Boilers at ANDRITZ.
