International technology Group ANDRITZ has received an order from Eldorado Papel e Celulose Ltda. (Eldorado Brasil) to supply a complete fiberline and other major equipment for the new pulp mill in Três Lagoas, Brazil. Start-up is scheduled for the third quarter of 2012. It was agreed not to disclose the order value.

The scope of supply of the ANDRITZ PULP & PAPER business area covers the EPC delivery of the complete fiberline including other major equipment for the new pulp mill:

Woodyard: three complete wood receiving and chipping lines, conveyors, stacker/reclaimer, four chip screens, and biomass handling.

Fiberline: single vessel continuous digester with Lo-Solids® cooking, washing, screening, and low-impact bleaching based upon the proven DD washer technology by ANDRITZ. The fiberline represents state-of-the-art process technology providing the best yield, washing efficiency, and minimal chemical consumption.

Complete pulp drying plant including automated baling lines. The two dewatering machines (working width 6.67 m each) will be based on Twin Wire former technology that has already been proven in several high-capacity pulp mill projects around the world.

Entire white liquor plant (recausticizing and lime kiln) designed to produce 15,700 m3/d of white liquor for the cooking plant. The plant will feature green liquor filtration based on X-Filter™ technology, the CD-Filter™ for white liquor filtration, and LMD-Filter™ for lime mud washing. The lime kiln will be the largest to be installed in South America.

With an annual production of approximately 1.5 million t of bleached eucalyptus market pulp, Eldorado will be the largest pulp mill in the world. With this order, ANDRITZ once again confirms its leading global position as a supplier of complete pulp production lines.

Pöyry's Industry Business Group has been awarded a basic and detailed engineering contract by Eldorado Celulose e Papel Ltda for the Balance of Plant(BOP) of the 1.5 million t/a bleached eucalyptus market pulp mill to be built in Mato Grosso do Sul state, Brazil. The assignment also includes the suppliers' document management. The value of Pöyry's contract is about 8.4 million EUR. The duration of Pöyry's engineering services is about 14 months.

The contract is a continuation of the pre-engineering and preparatory work for the mill infrastructure that Pöyry was awarded in early 2010 (see stock exchange release of 31 March, 2010).

The concept of the mill is based on the use of the best available technologies and the best environmental practices, which constitute the state-of-the-art level. The technical-environmental criteria established for this project are based on international norms and standards and, mainly, on the Brazilian experience, which will make it possible for the mill to produce more with less use of natural resources, low production costs, progressive environmental impact reduction and minimum work accident risks.

The contract strengthens Pöyry's position as the leading engineering solutions provider for the pulp and paper sector in the world.
