Alfa Laval has won an order from a refinery in Russia for compact heat exchangers. Alfa Laval is a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling. The order is valued at approximately SEK 70 million (US$10.6 million) and delivery is scheduled for 2013.
Alfa Laval’s compact heat exchangers will be used in the vacuum section of the crude oil distillation, where they will preheat the feed stream re-using heat from other parts of the process, thereby resulting in an energy-efficient process solution.
“It is our second large order this year, from the same Russian refinery,” said President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group, Lars Renström in a press release. “It proves our ability to supply energy-efficient solutions for these demanding refinery applications.”
