Alfa Laval wins SEK 55 million repeat order for marine exhaust gas cleaning systems


Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling – has won an order for four Alfa Laval PureSOx exhaust gas cleaning
systems. The order, booked in the Marine & Offshore Systems segment late
September, has a value of approximately SEK 55 million and delivery is scheduled
for 2015 and 2016.
The order includes Alfa Laval PureSOx exhaust gas cleaning systems (closed loop
systems) to be installed on new vessels.

“I am very pleased to announce this repeat order for our scrubber technology.
The order confirms our system’s reliability and performance for reducing sulphur
oxide, be it for retrofits or for installation aboard new vessels,” says Lars
Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group.

IMO’s convention for the reduction of sulphur oxides (SOx) will affect all
vessels, both new and existing. The convention demands that sulphur emission
levels in certain Emission Control Areas (ECAs) shall be cut to 0.1 percent from
the year 2015 and that the global emission level must not exceed 0.5 percent
from the year 2020. To reach these levels ship owners can either use more
expensive low-sulphur fuel or, on vessels where it is suitable, continue to run
the ship on heavy fuel oil and invest in a scrubber such as Alfa Laval’s
PureSOx.

system with new options and increased flexibility?
