New pellet facility destined for UK port

The Port of Immingham, UK has awarded a new biomass handling facility design contract to Graham Construction (GC).

Nearly 12 acres will be taken up by the fully-automated bulk handling terminal which will be able to handle three million tonnes of pellets a year. There will also be four silos capable of storing 100,000 tonnes of pellets onsite.

‘The challenge is now to complete the design and construction of this project on programme and provide ABP with a plant that meets their requirements,’ says GC director Leo Martin.
