International technology group ANDRITZ has successfully delivered, installed and commissioned an energy efficient LimeCool system at Stora Enso’s pulp mill located in Imatra, Finland. The start-up took place at the end of 2022.

The innovative ANDRITZ LimeCool system is designed to use the heat of the processed hot lime in the lime kiln. This enables to achieve higher energy efficiency of the white liquor plant and an increase in the production of high-quality lime when compared to conventional separate satellite coolers.
