ANDRITZ has received an order from Moorim P&P, South Korea, to upgrade an evaporation plant at its Ulsan mill, which produces bleached kraft pulp and different types of high-quality paper.
The upgraded evaporation plant is designed to produce a stable, high-solids black liquor stream for efficient combustion in the recovery boiler. All condensates generated in the evaporation plant can be 100% re-used in other mill areas reducing the need for raw water.
ANDRITZ’s scope of supply includes the following new equipment:

The upgraded evaporation plant is designed to produce a stable, high-solids black liquor stream for efficient combustion in the recovery boiler. All condensates generated in the evaporation plant can be 100% re-used in other mill areas reducing the need for raw water.
ANDRITZ’s scope of supply includes the following new equipment:
- HD concentrator that will ensure that the evaporation plant sends firing liqor with higher dry solids content to the recovery boiler
- Upgrade of the evaporation plant by adding a new effect 6 and an MVR pre-evaporator that will increase the evaporation capacity
- Foul condensate treatment system that will allow the condensates to be reused inside the mill instead of sending them to an effluent treatment plant. This has the double positive effect of reducing the consumption of freshwater and the need for treating wastewater.
Start-up of the upgraded plant is scheduled for April 2025.
