Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order from the energy company St1 for a process line to be installed in a new biorefinery in Sweden. The order has a value of approximately SEK 60 million and is booked in the Food Systems unit of the Food & Water Division. Deliveries are scheduled for 2021.

Our products all meet the high customer demands on reliability and performance.”
