JSC Svetlogorsk Pulp and Board has ordered from Metso (Finland) a comprehensive package of process automation technologies and valve solutions for its new bleached kraft pulp mill in Svetlogorsk, the Republic of Belarus. The new 400,000 metric tpy mill under construction will be the first bleached kraft pulp mill in the country. Metso's technology will enable the mill to reach high efficiency, product quality, and process stability, as well as gain savings in chemicals, steam, and water consumption. In addition, it will result in better sustainability.

The order was placed by China CAMC Engineering Co. (CAMCE), an EPC contractor responsible for the turnkey delivery of the plant. Deliveries will take place this autumn, and the equipment is estimated to start up during the third quarter of 2015. The value of the order was not disclosed.

Metso's delivery scope includes Kappa Q analyzers, Metso Polarox5 residual sensors, several Metso Piston filtrate samplers for pH measurement, Metso SP and Metso Rotary consistency transmitters, as well as Metso NOVE samplers. Valve solutions include more than 900 Neles® automated valves of various types and sizes for both control and on-off applications. All of the control valves will be equipped with ND 9000 series intelligent valve controllers, which ensure long-term reliability, reduce process variability, and improve process efficiency.
