Alfa Laval wins SEK 70 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 to a power plant in Bangladesh. The order has a value of approximately SEK 70 million. It is booked in the Boiler & Gas Systems unit of the Marine Division, with deliveries scheduled for 2018.
The order comprises Alfa Laval exhaust gas heat recovery boilers to be installed in a greenfield power plant where they will recover waste heat to be used in the electricity generation process.
“I am very pleased to announce this order for our energy-efficient Aalborg waste heat recovery systems,” says Peter Leifland, President of the Marine Division. “Alfa Laval has a wide range of energy-efficient products which contribute to huge energy savings in many different industries.”

Every year Alfa Laval’s technology contributes to energy savings of about 50 GW, matching the combined energy demand needed for about 13 million homes during a year corresponding to all households in the Nordic region.
