Sekab has awarded AFRY engineering and project partner assignment for the planned full-scale production facility in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. The production facility will produce green chemicals from the forestry industry residues. This is a continuation for earlier concept and feasibility study phases.
To succeed in the transformation towards a sustainable and fossil-free society, there is a growing demand for sustainable bio-based materials and new technologies are also required. Sekab is planning to upgrade and commercialize technology solutions geared towards the production of sustainable biofuels and green chemical products.
The assignment includes project management services and process, piping, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, automation and building engineering as part of an ongoing feasibility study and permit application process. In addition, AFRY is providing sustainability analysis and environmental services as well as resources for project owner.
The start of pre-engineering phase is expected to take place late 2021.
AFRY is a European leader in engineering, design, and advisory services, with a global reach.
