- Alfa Laval X-series decanter centrifuges are designed to provide a cost-effective operation in the olive oil chain, for both two-phase and three-phase operation. Y series
Alfa Laval Y series decanter centrifuges are designed to provide cost-effective operation in the olive oil chain, specifically for two phase operation.
Crushers
- Paste preparation is one of the critical steps in determining both the quantity and quality of the oil obtained from an olive oil extraction line.
Malaxers
- Malaxing is a crucial step in the olive oil extraction process, because it plays a major role in determining the quality and quantity of the product obtained.
Round overflow malaxers provide continuous heating of olive paste, releasing the oil so that it starts to form larger droplets that are then separated out in a vertical decanter centrifuge.
Olive oil systems
- The AlfaOliver 500 is a small-scale process module designed for the olive grower who wants to ensure a unique taste and quality profile for his production of extra virgin olive oil.
Washing machines
- Properly cleaned olives will ensure the longevity and performance of the other plant equipment in your olive oil mill.
Protein solutions
Fish process systems
- Alfa Laval offers complete fish processing systems for food and feed. Our compact, flexible solutions help you achieve superior product quality whilst reducing energy consumption and waste. You can also make use of Alfa Lavals unparalleled practical know-how and experience to help extend, improve and fine-tune any installation for your business.
Rendering systems
- Alfa Laval Centribone plants provide the most versatile and efficient way to process meat by-products.
Refrigeration solutions
U-Turn
- U-Turn is a liquid separator especially designed for use with plate heat exchangers in ammonia applications. The module including the separator and plate heat exchanger ensures minimum pressure drop losses and maximum energy efficiency.
Safety solutions
Combustion type inert gas system
- We produce inert gas for volatile cargo through a number of methods adapted to the combustion safety requirements of different vessels. Nearly all of them feature the unique Ultramizing system which atomizes fuel oil for soot-free inert gas, even at partial loads. New to our portfolio is the Gas Combustion Unit for LNG carriers, which safely and conveniently handles boil-off on vessels with dual-fuel or low-speed diesel engines.
Flue gas type inert gas system
- DescripYour tank holds your source of income and a potential source of danger. Alfa Laval Smit systems for inert gas production ensure a stable, safe tank environment. tion
Inert gas system
- Alfa Laval has spent decades optimizing cargo safety under the Smit name. Today were the market leader in the supply of inert gas systems for maritime applications. These systems degrade the oxygen level in the cargo tank, thus preventing a combustible atmosphere.
Thermal solutions
Heat treatment modules
- Alfa Laval provides a range of standardized heat treatment equipment to eliminate or reduce the number of live micro-organisms in a product thereby improving microbiological stability and increasing shelf life. The various process design configurations of the heat treatment equipment mean that the pre-engineered plate heat exchanger-based pasteurizing modules can be easily customized to different requirements and plugged into a system for quick operational start up.
