ANDRITZ receives the 15th order to deliver a high-efficiency PowerFluid circulating fluidized bed boiler to Japan

ANDRITZ will supply a biomass boiler and flue gas cleaning system to Wakayama Gobo Biomass Power Plant G.K. in Japan.

The ANDRITZ PowerFluid (CFB) will be designed with a reheat system and high steam parameters and integrated into a biomass-fired power generation facility to be fueled by wood pellets and palm kernel shells. With its state-of-the-art technology, it is the perfect solution to meet CO₂ reduction targets and contribute towards carbon neutrality in Japan. The biomass power plant will be capable of supplying power for roughly 110,000 Japanese households.

This order once again confirms ANDRITZ’s strong partnership with Toyo Engineering Cooperation. The project is the 12th to be conducted in cooperation with Toyo Engineering.
