Mondi Launches New Recovery Boiler at Mill in Ruzomberok

摘要

International packaging and paper group Mondi has launched a new recovery boiler at Mondi SCP, the company's operation in Ruzomberok, Slovakia. The opening ceremony took place on-site at Mondi SCP, where Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico joined fellow members of government, the project's main suppliers, and representatives from owners Mondi Group and ECO-INVEST- the Slovak industrial and investment holding. The new recovery boiler (RB3) has replaced recovery boiler 1, marking a further step in the mill's development to ensure the successful continuation of the mill's 134 year old tradition of paper making in the region. According to Mondi Group CEO David Hathorn, the start-up of the new recovery boiler will enable more ecoefficient means of increasing the production of pulp at the mill. "Wherever economically and environmentally feasible, Mondi promotes resource efficiency by using innovative technologies and making continuous improvements. In line with this approach, we have committed over EUR430 (USD538.4) million to green energy related projects between 2011 and 2016. RB3 is one of these projects and for us investing in green energy makes good business sense," said Hathorn.
