LNG products and solutions
FCM LNG
The Alfa Laval FCM LNG high-pressure fuel supply system is a reliable, efficient solution for the fuel line of LNG-powered vessels. Built on decades of expertise in alternative fuels, the system features advanced cryogenic pumps and printed circuit heat exchangers – ensuring top performance and LNG safety in your operations on board.
Aalborg dual-fuel boilers
Today’s Alfa Laval Aalborg marine boiler platform is fuel-flexible and future-proof. It simplifies the move to LNG as fuel, whether you switch today or want to be ready for an easy conversion later. Besides providing steam, Aalborg boilers can safely manage LNG boil-off gas (BOG) and reduce the hassle connected with tank inspection.
Heat exchangers
Alfa Laval provides robust heat exchanger solutions for gas fuel equipment, which is exposed to high thermal demands. The high-pressure FCM LNG fuel gas supply system makes use of diffusion-bonded printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) technology, which combines thermal efficiency and extreme durability in a compact unit.
Gas Combustion Unit
On LNG carriers, the Alfa Laval Gas Combustion Unit (GCU) is a safe, high-capacity solution for managing boil-off gas (BOG) when it cannot be used for propulsion. Its simple, reliable design is engineered for long life, with few moving parts and optimized airflow for a stable flame. Today’s GCU is equipped for connectivity as well.
