Marine and diesel power

In most of the world's ships

Alfa Laval has held a very strong position in the marine industry for almost a century. Its customers in this industry include shipbuilders and their subcontractors as well as the shipping companies that own and operate the vessels.

The majority of all the ships in the world have Alfa Laval equipment onboard and we have built up a broad product programme for ships’ most needs. It includes:

• separators for cleaning fuel oil and lubrication oil
• heat exchangers for engine cooling and air conditioning
• condensers for refrigeration
• fresh water generators
• systems for fuel conditioning
• tank cleaning

Alfa Laval is committed to supplying solutions that help to protect the fragile marine ecosystems. These solutions include a chemical-fee system that will put an effective end to invasive species in ballast water which has become a serious problem for the oceans.

We also supply a system for removal of oil and particles from even the toughest bilge water mixtures without the use of chemicals. Recent innovations also comprise a separator for crankcase gas cleaning onboard, removing oil and soot and resulting in oil-free air that can be released into the atmosphere.

Alfa Laval’s presence in the world's 50 busiest ports gives vessels access to fast service and support by our qualified service personnel.
