THE MOGI GUAÇU BIOMASS BOILER
In 2012, we completed construction and start-up of our biomass boiler in Mogi
Guaçu, Brazil. This high-return cost savings project stands proudly at the
intersection of sustainable solutions and innovative cost management, with an
estimated $30 million in incremental earnings between 2012 and 2013. On-line
and fully operational in fourth quarter 2012, the boiler utilizes renewable carbon-
neutral biomass fuel, reduces fossil fuel use by 75 percent at the mill and cuts
down on electricity purchases while creating an incremental earnings driver for
2013 and beyond.
THE FRANKLIN, VIRGINIA MILL
Realizing an opportunity to repurpose an existing asset and create a low-cost
position in the fluff pulp market, International Paper transformed its Franklin Mill
International Paper / 2012 Annual Report 10/11
BRAZIL—MOGI GUAÇU BOILER
The new boiler at the Mogi Guaçu Mill will generate 210 tons of steam per hour, which
can be converted into enough electricity to supply around 40,000 households. This boiler
complements the steam generators in the pulp manufacturing process, and also supplies electricity
to the mill, where it will provide practically all the energy used in the production process.
