ANDRITZ completes combustion system upgrade on Essity tissue machine in England

ANDRITZ completes combustion system upgrade on Essity tissue machine in England

International technology group ANDRITZ successfully completed the upgrade of the combustion system on a through-air drying (TAD) tissue machine at the paper mill of Essity in Prudhoe. This is the third upgrade of this kind that ANDRITZ carried out for global hygiene and health company Essity.

ANDRITZ installed new equipment including a new gas valve train as well as a new burner management system for electronic control of the air/gas ratio to optimize the combustion process over the entire burner output range. This will increase burner performance while reducing gas consumption by up to 4%. CO2 and NOx emissions will also be considerably reduced, and safety improved.

Essity is a Swedish based leading global hygiene and health company with five manufacturing sites throughout the UK. Trends such as longer life expectancy, higher living standards and greater awareness of hygiene and health support the group’s growth, which is based on successful innovations, digital transformation, leading sustainability work and efficiency improvements.
