The order, booked in the Food Technology segment has a value of approximately SEK 50 million and delivery is scheduled for 2014 and 2015. The Alfa Laval equipment includes various heat exchangers, mixers and separators which will be installed in a process plant for edible oil production as well as oil pre-treatment for biodiesel production. “This order reflects the good growth we see in Brazil – and it also confirms our strong position as a reliable supplier of process solutions to the vegetable oil industry,” says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group.
