Eldorado Celulose e Papel Ltda, Brazil, has awarded a basic and detailed engineering contract to Pöyry's Industry Business Group, Finland, for the Balance of Plant (BOP) of the 1.5 million metric tpy bleached eucalyptus market pulp mill to be built in Mato Grosso do Sul state, Brazil. The assignment also includes the suppliers' document management. The value of Pöyry's contract is about EUR 8.4 million. The duration of Pöyry's engineering services is about 14 months.

The contract is a continuation of the pre-engineering and preparatory work for the mill infrastructure that Pöyry was awarded in early 2010.

The mill design is based on best available technologies and best environmental practices. Technical and environmental criteria for the project are based on international norms and standards and, mainly, on the Brazilian experience, which will make it possible for the mill to produce more with less use of natural resources, low production costs, progressive environmental impact reduction, and minimum work accident risks, Pöyry notes.
