Automation of Bulgarian pulp mill
expansion
Emerson Process Management has been awarded a contract to use PlantWeb to digitally automate an expanded recovery boiler and fiberline at Svilosa pulp mill, located on the banks of the Danube
Emerson will install its PlantWeb digital plant architecture for this project that will triple mill output, reduce the environmental impact of the plant, and improve its energy efficiency Producing Bleached Hardwood Kraft Pulp (BHKP) for a large geographical area, the mill is expanding to realise growth from a global increase in demand and reduce energy costs

Emerson Process Management has introduced communication options for the Micro Motion 2400S transmitter.
Production will be increased from 50,000 tonnes/annum to 150,000 tonnes/annum, and energy consumption will be reduced along with the discharge of greenhouse gases.
In addition, the project will enable the plant to reduce water use and water borne emissions.
Emerson will supply engineering services and project management of the automation, that will apply Emerson Smart Mill technology.
This digital technology is based on the Emerson PlantWeb digital architecture, and has been proven to improve mill project performance and deliver sustained operations improvement.
The digital PlantWeb technology will network a DeltaV digital automation system with intelligent field instrumentation including Fisher valves and Fieldvue digital valve controllers, Micro Motion Coriolis mass flowmeters and Rosemount pressure, flow, temperature and level measurement instruments.
The AMS Suite of predictive maintenance software will process information from the network for use by Svilosa operations and maintenance personnel to improve mill availability and performance.
The pulp mill is located on the banks of the Danube, near the town of Svishtov in Northern Bulgaria. Request a free brochure from Emerson Process Management ...
