Alfa Laval wins SEK 65 million energy-efficiency order

Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order to supply waste heat recovery systems for diesel power plants that will be built in Asia. The order, booked in the Marine & Diesel Equipment segment, has a value of approximately SEK 65 million and delivery is scheduled for 2017.

The systems will recover and reuse heat from the diesel engines to produce steam for power generation, increasing the efficiency of the whole installation.

“I am very pleased to be able to announce this order for our Alfa Laval Aalborg heat recovery systems”, says Peter Leifland, President of the Marine & Diesel division. “Energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important and our reliable products fit perfectly for heat recovery applications within the power industry.” 

Did you know that… these waste heat recovery systems – without additional fuel – will generate electricity for 1.5 million people every year?
