The powdered substance is used as a reducing agent in several production processes for pharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients. The new production line will be commissioned by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Sweco will carry out the expansion project using the EPCM delivery model. In the EPCM model, Sweco is responsible for comprehensive project management, covering design, procurement coordination and construction supervision. At the end of the EPCM phase, the plant will have reached mechanical completion, after which it will be handed over to the client for commissioning preparations. The new production line will be commissioned by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Sweco has previously designed and delivered several projects for Kemira, including a sodium chlorate plant in Joutseno and multiple hydrogen peroxide projects at various sites.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have carried out several projects with Kemira in Finland and abroad. It is great to continue this well-functioning collaboration. In this project, we support Kemira in an expansion that strengthens the pharmaceutical industry\u2019s needs in export markets. Sweco is involved in multiple projects for the pharmaceutical sector, which is one of our key growth areas both domestically and internationally,\u201d says <strong>Tuomas Salminen,<\/strong> Division Director, Industry and Energy at Sweco.<\/p>\n<div class=\"buttons-wrapper buttons-wrapper--left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/services\/industry\/pharmaceutical-industry\/\" target=\"\" class=\"btn btn__primary \">Pharmaceutical industry<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/services\/industry\/ind\/\" target=\"\" class=\"btn btn__primary \">Teollisuuden suunnittelu ja konsultointi<\/a><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":175,"featured_media":68325,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"none","_seopress_titles_title":"Sweco to Design Capacity Expansion for Kemira - Sweco.fi","_seopress_titles_desc":"Sweco will carry out the expansion project using the EPCM delivery model.","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[139],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75392","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75392","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/175"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=75392"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75392\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":75395,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75392\/revisions\/75395"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/68325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=75392"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=75392"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=75392"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
