Alfa Laval (STO:ALFA) – a world leader in heat transfer,
centrifugal separation and fluid handling – gives the ‘Gustaf
Award’, established to recognize true innovation, to the Alfa Laval
PureSOx team for an extraordinary product and commercial
development. The prize was awarded at Alfa Laval’s Annual General
Meeting, held in Lund, Sweden, Thursday.
The Gustav Award was established in conjunction with Alfa
Laval's 100th anniversary in 1983, as an expression of Alfa Laval's
belief in continuous innovation. The award aims to encourage and
reward efforts that are of great significance to Alfa Laval’s
business.
The Alfa Laval PureSOx team consists of Martijn Bergink, Rene
Diks, Kristina Effler, Jens Peter Hansen and Olaf Heijers. They
received the award at a special ceremony during the AGM.
“The team behind Alfa Laval PureSOx has successfully developed
an innovative technical solution that meets the new environmental
legislations as well as customer needs,” says Lars Renstr�m,
President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. “Already today, the Alfa
Laval Pure SOx is an established solution with a global market
leading position.”
Alfa Laval PureSOx was launched in September 2012 and is a
successful synergy from the acquisition of Aalborg Industries in
2011. It is one of the market-leading alternatives for complying
with the sulphur limits imposed by IMO. Since its launch, and up
until the end of the first quarter 2015, Alfa Laval has taken
orders for 78 systems for 71 vessels. Alfa Laval PureSOx is
available both as a hybrid system (running on both sea water and
freshwater) and as a closed-loop system. The water cleaning unit
used in closed-loop mode is the most compact solution in the
market.

Lennart Stenstr�m for his ideas of using microwaves in the food
preservation process?
