It has the capacity to generate 32 tons of steam per hour at 12 bar(g) and 220°C using wood chips as fuel.
“We are very pleased with the timely completion of this project and the high quality of the work provided by ANDRITZ,” said Zoltán Reng, CEO of Hungrana. “The entire process, from initial design to final commissioning, was handled with great efficiency and professionalism. This new biomass power plant underscores our commitment to sustainability. We are proud of the positive impact it will have on both our business and the environment.”
