Nine Dragons Paper is part of the Nine Dragons Paper Group, an important global player in the pulp and paper industry with mills in China, Vietnam, Malaysia, and the United States (US). The group primarily produces linerboard, high-performance corrugating medium, coated duplex board, and printing and writing paper.
According to ANDRITZ, its OCC equipment will enable the highest production performance and conservation of resources. These ambitious goals will be achieved with a well-developed line setup, a highly efficient drum pulping system, and a range of Prime stock preparation products.
An ANDRITZ FibreFlow drum pulping system will ensure premium accept quality, gentle slushing, and efficient removal of contaminants at minimum fiber loss. Energy-saving and maintenance-friendly PrimeScreen F screens and PrimeFilter D disc filters, as well as an ultra-high dispersing system that enables consistency of up to 40 percent, will achieve substantial savings in steam consumption and superior fiber strength development.
The start-up for the order, the value of which has not been disclosed, is scheduled for the third quarter of 2023.
With the delivery of this FibreFlow drum pulper, ANDRITZ will have supplied more than 30 drum pulpers to Nine Dragons.
