Valmet to deliver new evaporation line to Södra Cell Mönsterås pulp mill in Sweden

Valmet will deliver a new evaporation line 3 for Södra Cell Mönsterås pulp mill in Sweden. The new line will replace the oldest evaporation line 1 at the mill. The new evaporation plant is scheduled to start-up in the 1Q 2023.

The value of the order will not be disclosed. However, a project of this size and scope is typically valued at around Euro 30 million.

"Our existing evaporation line 1 is over 40 years old and due to high recurring maintenance costs it now needs to be replaced with a new modern evaporation plant representing the state-of-the-art technology, which is more energy efficient and increases our mill's performance," says Jonas Olander, Project Leader at Södra Cell Mönsterås.

The new evaporation line 3 will have a capacity of 530 tonnes evaporated water per hour. The 7-effect line will feature Valmet Tubel technology for highest energy efficiency, availability and easy washing. The evaporation line will produce clean condensates for reuse in the mill processes. The line includes preparedness for lignin extraction with LignoBoost technology. Valmet's delivery also includes inspection of the existing evaporation line 2.

Södra is Sweden's largest forest owners' association and an international forest industry group where operations are based on the processing of members forest raw material.

Södra Cell is one of Södra's four business areas. With its pulp mills at Värö, Mörrum and Mönsterås, Södra Cell is one of the leading producers of market pulp in the world.
