Reuse waste energy and invest in a sustainable future
Energy efficiency is in our DNA. It is something we have been developing for almost a decade. In fact, Alfa Laval's heat transfer solutions save 100 GW of energy in industry every year. That is enough power to heat 20 million homes.
We have found that there is always room for reusing waste energy by changing the cleaning and maintenance program or updating the configurations. Watch the video and learn how Alfa Laval can help.
Now, we are accelerating our hunt for waste energy to improve existing industries and help you to save energy today.
We provide online calculators to help you estimate energy saving
Our simplified saving calculation tools can estimate how much energy you can save when using our efficient plate heat exchanger technology, either by ensuring they are serviced optimally or by reusing your waste heat. In addition to the energy saving you will also get a monetary value estimate, as well as a calculation of the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and water consumption.
Optimized service could hunt back waste energy from 8000 kWh per year, and the payback time on investment in heat recovery is usually very low, ranging from a couple of months to a few years.
Value of Reused Waste Heat
Do you cool your hot process media using a cooling system? Our online calculator can estimate how much waste heat you could hunt with one of our heat exchangers. It can even tell you how much you could save in carbon emissions, water consumption, and overall costs. Click the below button to start saving.

Our recent waste energy hunting projects in the industry
Industrial waste heat recovery
Recovering industrial waste heat is one of the most effective ways to improve energy efficiency on a global scale. By recovering energy that would otherwise be lost to the atmosphere or water and reusing it for other purposes, we can greatly reduce fuel consumption compared with today’s levels. As a result, we can also drastically reduce global carbon emissions.
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.
Waste heat recovery
With the right heat exchanger technology, you can recover high temperature heat generated by industrial processes, as well as lower temperature heat captured by heat pumps in, for example, data center cooling or water treatment applications. This heat can then be used for applications ranging from district heating to producing electricity.
Service to optimize energy efficiency
Optimize the heat transfer efficiency of your plate heat exchangers by servicing them correctly. Efficient plate heat exchangers and the right service can save 100 GW and 50 million tonnes of CO2.
The Energy Efficiency Movement
What is more sustainable than energy that hasn’t been produced in the first place? That’s why energy efficiency is our ‘first fuel’ for decarbonizing the future. We just need to make it happen. That’s why Alfa Laval has joined the Energy Efficiency Movement.
Join us as part of the open-door initiative to accelerate the implementation of energy efficient solutions. Together we can accelerate the transition to a more sustainable future. Discover what the Energy Efficiency Movement is all about.
