JK Paper Installs New HERB Recovery Boiler from ANDRITZ
This is the fourth HERB recovery boiler ANDRITZ is currently installing in India, demonstrating it’s strong presence in the Indian pulp and paper market.
ANDRITZ has successfully started up a new 950 t/d HERB chemical recovery boiler at JK Paper Limited, Unit: CPM at Fort Songadh, in the Tapi District of Gujarat state, India.
The boiler is designed to process hardwood black liquor and enables environment-friendly and more energy-efficient operation compared to the direct-contact evaporator boiler currently used at the mill. This will significantly increase the mill’s pulp production and power-to-heat ratio. The boiler also features a unique air system to minimize air emissions.
