Vallvik mill in Sweden to have white liquor filter upgrade
A white liquor filter is being supplied to the Vallvik pulp mill on the east coast of Sweden and run by Rottneros. The white liquor filter is part of the mill’s chemical recovery process. The investment is part of
Rottneros AB’s rebuild project called Agenda 500, which aims to increase availability and the total production volume at both of Rottneros AB’s pulp mills at Rottneros and Vallvik, with a target to reach a capacity of 500,000 tons per year. The larger white liquor filter
– estimated to be worth $5m – will replace an existing filter delivered by Valmet in 1990. The project includes a new
PDW-type white liquor filter, erection, start-up services, basic engineering for piping, for instrument and for electrical and process control. The PDW pressure disc filter produces completely clear white liquor and washes the lime mud. The very high white liquor yield increases upstream capacity and eliminates the potential process disturbances that increased amount of dregs and other non-
process elements in the white liquor can cause. Per-Arne Nilsson, project manager at the Vallvik mill, says: “Vallvik has great confidence in Valmet as a supplier and despite a very tough schedule, we have a good reason to assume that Valmet will deliver on time. In addition, I personally look forward to working with Valmet again because this is my third project with Valmet regarding installation of pressurized disc filter.”
Thomas Malmqvist, sales manager at Valmet, added:
“Despite being a trusted partner with Vallvik for more than 40 years in the white liquor area, the tight schedule was a challenge when pursuing this project. All people involved in the sales phase participated in the strategic and proactive work to compress the delivery time, and they deserve a big thanks for their efforts. We are very pleased and look forward to a good and safe project implementation phase.” Valmet is also delivering a new
bleach plant to the Rottneros pulp mill.
