Alfa Laval Hygienic WideGap heat exchanger

Monday, 13 May, 2024


The Alfa Laval Hygienic WideGap heat exchanger is designed to provide a sustainable alternative to conventional technology for the processing of liquid foods containing fibres and particles.

With a patented design, the solution is suitable for the sustainable and hygienic production of, for example, crushed tomatoes, dressings, plant-based beverages and juices with pulp.

In comparison with conventional technologies, the heat exchanger is claimed to be 50% more energy efficient with corresponding lower emissions. The energy efficiency of the technology is said to be a result of the combination of optimal heat recovery, a 55% lower steam consumption and a 15% lower power consumption thanks to a lower pressure drop.
