Andritz to supply new flotation system to EcoPaper JP, Japan

International technology Group Andritz has received an order from EcoPaper JP to supply a flotation system for its Nagoya mill, Japan.

By installing the new system, the power consumption will be significantly reduced, the quality of the pulp produced will be improved, and the fiber losses will be minimized. Start-up is scheduled for the end of 2012.

Andritz Pulp & Paper will deliver a SelectaFlot flotation system (type SFL1D), including piping, pumps, and installation work. The new flotation system will replace old flotation cells in a deinking plant for graphic papers operating at a capacity of 150 t/d.
