Pellet production plant at Sawmill 25 (http://www.sawmill25.ru/) |
The project is implemented at CJSC "Sawmill 25", Arkhangelsk, the largest sawmill in the North-West of Russia.
The project is structured around construction of a plant for production of fuel pellets from sawmill residues in the territory of the Sawmill. The design works for the pellet production plant started in 2007, and the output of products began in May 2008. The initial plant capacity is 45,000 tonnes of pellets per year. By the year 2010 it is planned to increase the output capacity up to 70,000 tonnes of pellets per year by setting up an additional production line.
The auxiliary heat demand of the pellet production plant is met by the heat generators installed at the plant itself and by the Sawmill's mini-CHPP that are both fired solely with bark and wood wastes. Electricity is supplied from the mini CHPP of the Sawmill and/or from the external power grid.
Expected emission reductions over 2008-2012 – 102 kt ÑÎ2e
