| Brief description of retrofit |
Nervion's paper mill started up a biomass cogeneration plant to reduce mills carbon dioxide emissions and improving the mill's profitability.
|
| Additional Information |
This is an example of a typical bioenergy increasing integration in the pulp and paper industry. Similar retrofits are widely done within the industry if the CHP consuming the bio-based side products has not been in the mill construction from the beginning. New biomass cogeneration plants are often integrated also, when the pulping capacity increase is expected.
