Ilim Group has installed a new scrubber at the fiberline of its Bratsk mill. The new equipment will ensure additional treatment of the gas and vapour mixture from the IMPBIN. The preparatory work to tie the scrubber in the existing process lines is nearing completion and will be followed by hydraulic tests, commissioning, and subsequent start-up of the equipment. T
he company expects this work to be finished within one month.
The upgrade of Ilim's Bratsk Mill using the best available technologies has already resulted in more than a two-fold reduction of sulfur-containing gas emissions. To keep lowering its environmental footprint, Ilim Group has developed a relevant action plan which was presented by Company management to Bratsk Mayor Sergey Serebrennikov and Bratsk City Duma deputies in January 2015, and approved by the regional authorities.
