International technology Group #andritz has received an order from the #ilimgroup to supply a wood processing plant with two debarking and chipping lines, chip and bark handling equipment, and a SmartWoodyard advanced control system to the Koryazhma mill in the Arkhangelsk region, Russia. Start-up is scheduled for mid-2021.
The new woodyard will replace existing woodroom and chip storage facilities, which have a pneumatic conveying system. The technology supplied by #andritz will substantially contribute towards reducing emissions and operating costs, resulting in environmentally friendly, high-quality chip production and considerable savings in raw material.
