SCHOELLERSHAMMER GmbH & Co. KG
The SCHOELLERSHAMMER paper-mill is producing corrugated base sheets using two paper making machines in the long-standing business location Düren. With a corporate history of 230 years, it is among the oldest paper-mills in Germany. Nearly 800 tons of paper is leaving the factory premises daily. With its 24/7 continuous operation, SCHOELLERSHAMMER is making an important contribution to life-cycle management, thereby conserving resources.
The customised GETEC energy solution
High-efficiency CHP plant secures paper production.
The challenge
With a new paper making machine, the paper-mill has marked a milestone in its more than 230-year history of the family business, and substantially boosted its production capacity. Due to the planned increase in the paper production from 230,000 tons to more than 500,000 tons a year, the energy need has risen as well.
The goal
Development of a high-efficiency combined heat and power plant that fulfils the requirements for a sustainable energy supply at the Düren location, while at the same time contributing to the success of the transition toward renewable energies.
Our solution
The plant generates approx. 180 GWh/a of heat with a maximum steam capacity of 71 tons per hour. The electricity generated with combined heat and power covers the combined heating and power station’s own needs as well as partly the needs of the paper-mill. Thus, the energy supply to the long-standing location in Düren has now been secured well into the future.
