Report this content
Metso will supply the new recausticizing plant for Botnia's Kemi mill. The new
plant will replace an existing recausticizing line and is scheduled to start up
during autumn 2011. 

Metso's scope of supply covers a complete recausticizing plant comprising a
clarifier, a decanter centrifuge, a green liquor cooler, a slaker,
causticizers, a PDW filter (pressure disc filter for white liquor) and storage
tanks. The new recausticizing plant is designed for 7,000 m³ of white liquor
per day. The delivery also includes basic and detail engineering for piping,
erection and start-up. 

The new recausticizing plant will lower the maintenance costs and improve the
efficiency and environmental performance at the Kemi mill and will be the first
recausticizing plant to be delivered by Metso to Finland.
