Andritz has received an order from Alizay Papier SASU to supply a complete OCC line – including a reject treatment system – with a capacity of 1,400 bdmt/d to the mill in Alizay, France.

Start-up is scheduled for the end of 2022.ANDRITZ’s scope of supply comprises the entire equipment from pulping to the storage tower and features several technological highlights:

- PrimePulping LC system with innovative design for lowest fiber loss in slushing and reject removal

- Multi-stage fine screening with PrimeScreen X screens for highest efficiency and low power consumption

- PrimeFilter D disc filter with bagless sectors offering significant benefits in terms of thickening performance, energy consumption and maintenance

-State-of-the-art reject treatment with ADuro shredders and Reject Compactors processing the rejects from pulping and coarse screening as well as the pulper rags. A space-saving, automatic rag operation process will feed the rags directly into an ADuro C primary shredder. This eliminates the need for intermediate storage and transport and thus saves space, time and manpower.

ANDRITZ will also provide full detailed engineering as well as start-up and commissioning services.
