The typical value of this type of order is approximately €15 – 25 million. In addition, the remaining portion of approximately €40 million, covering the equipment for Keliber’s concentrator plant in Kaustinen, Finland, will be booked in the Minerals segment’s 3Q23 orders received.

Metso’s scope of delivery for the effluent treatment plant includes the engineering, procurement, and supply of the equipment for the full process, as well as advisory services.
