Valmet biomass boiler for Japan

Valmet will supply a biomass power boiler and a flue gas cleaning system to Tahara Biomass Power of Japan. The new CFB (circulating fluidized bed) boiler will enable the plant to achieve a stable power supply at high thermal efficiency while reducing CO2 emissions. The installation work is scheduled to start in 2023, and the plant will start commercial operation during 2025.
The project will be delivered in cooperation with the Japanese company JFE Engineering as the EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction).
"We are proud to supply one of the largest biomass-fired boiler plants in Japan with a maximum biomass combustion capacity. This is also our sixth boiler plant order in a row with JFE Engineering Corporation, which is a proof of our long and trustful cooperation," says Jari Niemelä, Director, Boilers and Gasifiers, Energy business unit, Valmet.
