Reuse waste energy and invest in a profitable and sustainable future
The imperative for change
According to the World Economic Forum, the manufacturing and production sectors account for 20% of global carbon emissions. As climate change accelerates, the pressure to decarbonize industries increases. Sustainability is no longer optional – it’s essential. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is now a top priority, and companies are increasingly committed to carbon reduction programs.
Energy efficiency is often referred to as the ‘first fuel’ of decarbonization. To fully capitalize on energy efficiency, the key is to incorporate it early in your projects, choose the right technology, and optimize the process.
The benefits of energy efficiency improvements
- Reduced CO2 emissions
- Lower energy and maintenance costs
- Improved plant capacity and uptime
- Increased product yield and quality
- Improved overall process efficiency
- Higher reliability
- Lower lifecycle costs
Selecting the right partner for energy efficiency
Choosing the right technology and process solutions maximizes the return on your energy efficiency investments. This is where Alfa Laval comes in. As a global leader in heat transfer technology, we provide high-efficiency equipment and cutting-edge process solutions.
Why Alfa Laval?
Over the years, we have acquired and developed a diverse portfolio of heat exchangers, enabling us to offer the most suitable technology for each unique challenge. We have extensive experience of selecting technology in various applications, and an understanding of the value of proper design, process knowledge, and maintenance strategies.
Leveraging heat transfer technology is the key to reducing both operating expenses and capital expenditure. These benefits extend beyond the heat exchanger itself, improving the performance and efficiency of other critical equipment in the same process. The earlier Alfa Laval is involved in a project, the better the process can be designed that reaps the full benefits of energy efficiency.

A critical step toward energy efficiency is to replace shell-and-tube heat exchangers with plate heat exchangers. Use our online calculators to estimate your potential energy savings. These tools estimate energy reduction, along with your cost savings, CO2 emissions reduction, water savings, and more.
Ensuring long-term performance
Regular service is necessary for maintaining the high performance and reliability of your heat exchangers. Over time, even the best equipment can suffer from fouling or scaling, leading to reduced heat transfer efficiency. Predictive maintenance ensures your equipment operates at peak efficiency, minimizing downtime, energy consumption, and operational costs Ready to start your energy efficiency journey? Use our online tool to calculate your potential savings from regular service.

Energy balance
Papermaking requires huge amounts of energy to maintain the heating and cooling processes the industry requires. Finland-based UPM-Kymmene, Europe’s biggest forest industry group and one of the world’s largest paper manufacturers, has fine-tuned the balance between heating and cooling processes, resulting in surplus energy.
Steam recovery
Sappi Maastricht paper mill, the Netherlands, needed to replace their shell and tube heat exchanger which was frequently leaking. In addition it was difficult to access and expensive to maintain. AlfaCond solved the problems.
Hunting for energy in sulphuric acid plants
Economic and sustainability gains with sulphuric acid heat recovery. Following a total reconstruction of the cooling system at the Kemira sulphuric acid plant, the temperature of the cooling water has been raised to a level at which it can be used for district heating.
