Features:

The tissue making line and biomass boiler orders are included in Valmet's orders received of the fourth quarter 2023 and the tissue converting equipment order of the first quarter 2024. The value of the total order will not be disclosed, but such an order is typically worth around EUR 100 million. The target of the investment is to meet the Brazilian consumers’ increasing demand of high-quality tissue products with low environmental impact. The start-up is scheduled for the first quarter of 2026.

The new tissue making line will have an annual production capacity of 60,000 tons. The tissue making line and converting lines are optimized to save energy and deliver excellent paper properties.

It will also be featured with the Advantage tissue technology including ViscoNip press, ReDry, AirCap hood with Air system, WetDust systems and a SoftReel reel. Valmet will also deliver detailed mill engineering, stock preparation equipment as well as automation, including Valmet DNA Distributed Control System (DCS) with built-in machine condition monitoring, Valmet IQ Quality Control System (QCS) and Softness sensor. In addition, Valmet will supply its Constellation converting lines, based on four rolls rewinder technology. The delivery also includes Valmet’s flow control solutions and Performance Center services.

Valmet will also deliver a biomass boiler that utilizes bubbling fluidized bed (BFB) technology and features very high efficiency. The main fuels for the Valmet BFB boiler are bark and other wood waste from the mill. The boiler is also designed to combust non-condensable gases and methanol from the pulp mill. Flue gases are cleaned with Valmet’s electrostatic precipitator (ESP) technology.
