Metso supplies power boiler to SAICA in Spain



Metso Corporation's company release on July 30, 2009 at 1:00 p.m.
local time

Metso will supply a power boiler to S.A Industrias Celulosa
Aragonesa's (SAICA) new waste-to-energy power plant at Zaragoza in
Spain. Start-up for the plant is scheduled for the third quarter of
2011. The value of this order is approximately EUR 50 million. The
order is included in Energy and Environmental Technology's Q3 orders
reveiced.

The power boiler will be a 150 MW (thermal capacity) multi-fuel
boiler using Metso's circulating fluidized bed technology and
high-performance flue gas cleaning system, giving the new plant very
high environmental performance. With this investment SAICA will
minimize their landfill operations and instead recycle their paper
mill waste into electrical power.

SAICA is Spain's largest paper producer with a production capacity of
2 million tons/year of corrugated paper. SAICA is also the largest
paper recycler in Spain, using recovered paper for papermaking. At
present the company recycles 2.2 million tons of paper per year which
otherwise would go to dump.

Metso is a global supplier of sustainable technology and services for
mining, construction, power generation, automation, recycling and the
pulp and paper industries. We have about 28,000 employees in more
than 50 countries. www.metso.com
