Sofidel the second biomass boiler at the Frouard plant is on its way The investment will allow the plant to reduce its CO2 emissions by 9,100 tons per year a biomass boiler has already been in operation for almost 10 years the two boilers together will produce 95 percent of the steam needed to heat the drying cylinders of the two paper machines This choice is part of the multi-option strategy the Group adopts in the various countries in which it operates The Sofidel Group is one of the leading manufacturers of paper for hygienic and domestic use worldwide the Group has subsidiaries in 13 countries – Italy Romania and the USA – with more than 6,500 employees net sales of 2,801 million Euros (2022) and a production capacity of over one million tonnes per year (1,440,000 tonnes in 2022) is present on almost all the reference markets A member of the UN Global Compact and the international WWF Climate Savers programme the Sofidel Group considers sustainability a strategic factor with regards to growth and is committed to reducing its impact on natural capital and maximising social benefits setting as objective the creation of shared added value for all stakeholders Sofidel’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets to 2030 have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to well-below 2°C in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement www.sofidel.com SofidelSofidelThe Sofidel Group is one of the leading manufacturers of paper for hygienic and domestic use worldwide Romania and the USA – with more than 6,000 employees net sales of 2,095 million Euros (2021) and a production capacity of over one million tonnes per year (1,440,000 tonnes in 2021) More from Sofidel For the Golbey PM1 Project, deugro Germany successfully delivered two drum sections from China to France for the pulp and paper industry deugro’s scope encompassed the transportation from the Port of Shanghai the inland waterway transport to the river Port of Frouard as well as the subsequent on-carriage by various trailer configurations to the job site in Golbey deugro’s teams were engaged by their client Voith Paper more than 2.5 years prior to the transport taking place to investigate the overall feasibility and determine the maximum cargo size able to be transported Detailed planning and preparations were required to ensure the safe transport of the drums with dimensions of up to 32 x 5.6 x 5.7 meters and weights of up to 195 metric tons—especiallyon the complex on-carriage route from the closest river port to the plant including turning simulations and swept path analyses were conducted by dteq Transport Engineering Solutions along with local In line with the tight schedule and under the personal supervision of deugro Shanghai the drums were loaded at the Port of Shanghai—on dship’s MV Annie—and shipped on a last-in/first-out basis to the Port of Antwerp allowing the teams of deugro Antwerp to assemble and mount the cable guiding system onto the drums before loading the cargoonto the river vessel After arrival and discharge at the river Port of Frouard the drum sections were delivered by road to the job site in Golbey under coordination by deugro Paris “The most challenging part of the journey was the manoeuvring through the many traffic circles and tight turns as well as traversing the Town of Lunéville To allow for safe navigation through the extremely sharp turns in Lunéville we arranged the transfer from conventional THP trailers to self-propelled modular trailers using a jacking/stooling operation After crossing the most critical turns inthe city the cargo was transferred back onto the THP trailers for the remaining on-carriage,” said Ambra Gotsch “Another operational challenge was the passing of a railway bridge near the Village of Méhoncourt Six additional axle lines had to be mounted to the modular trailer to stay within the allowable bridge capacity determined by the road authorities then dismantled after passing the bridge,” added Ulf Langner อัพเดตข่าวสารและบทความที่น่าสนใจในอุตสาหกรรมโลจิสติกส์ก่อนใคร ผ่าน Line Official Account @Logistics Mananger เพียงเพิ่มเราเป็นเพื่อน @Logistics Manager หรือคลิกที่นี่
