Recovery Boilers - the heart of the mill

Better reliability and higher performance, as well as a safe operating environment are key drivers for chemical pulp production. Additionally, environmental regulations – for example, emissions into air and water – are getting tighter, while society is setting ever-higher expectations when it comes to issues like odor control. Often described as the beating heart of a pulp mill, how the recovery boiler performs and is optimized is essential to a mill’s overall operational performance and profitability. With Valmet’s latest recovery boiler technology, chemical pulp producers can have a truly tailor-made solution suitable to their own individual production needs, local regulations and affordability.
