UPM supports the Baltic Sea Action Group’s operations to prevent eutrophication
UPM continues its long-standing co-operation with the Baltic Sea Action Group (BSAG) to prevent eutrophication in the Baltic Sea and in Finnish waters. "Preventing eutrophication requires collaboration between various parties. We are able to utilise nutritious sidestreams from other operators at our biological treatment plants. This way, we can replace nutrients essential to industrial treatment plants and reduce the amount of nutrients ending up into waters at a local level", explains Eerik Ojala, Director, Responsibility, Production support. In 2016, UPM set a responsibility target to use only recycled nutrients at its wastewater treatment plants by 2030. "So far, our work has progressed well: in 2018, already 22 per cent of all nutrients used by us were recycled. In other words, we are utilising nutritious sidestreams from other local operators in our operations", Eerik Ojala clarifies. Click Read More below for additional detail.

Record in laminating layers of carbon fiber fabric achieved by Ahlstrom-Munksjö HighFlow
The need came from Ahlstrom-Munksjö customers, who are trying to tackle the challenge of the ever-increasing size of wind turbine blades. While blades become longer, also the thickness of laminates gets higher. Ahlstrom-Munksjö glass and carbon fiber composite team was able to develop a carbon fiber based unidirectional fabric. In a unidirectional (UD) fabric the majority of fibers run in one direction only. The new fabric developed, can be laminated to 165 layers or even more in one shot. The previous record of infusing carbon fiber unidirectional fabric was 120 layers. “We are really excited about the new HighFlow Carbon unidirectional fabric. Our team in Mikkeli plant, Finland, did excellent work with this. ”, says Pekka Helynranta, Vice President, Building & Wind. “HighFlow Carbon Wind Energy is specially designed for wind turbine blades to enable larger new generation wind turbines.” Click Read More below for additional detail.
