Biomass gasification eliminates fossil fuels in the pulp mill

Valmet will deliver two biomass gasifiers to OKI Pulp & Paper Mills' pulp mill project in South Sumatra, Indonesia. The gasifiers utilize circulating fluidized bed (CFB) technology and their capacity is 110 MW each.

The new pulp mill is expected to produce approximately 2 million ADT (air dry tonne) of pulp annually. The commercial production is expected to begin in 2016.
