Heating and cooling for methanol
Alfa Laval heat exchangers for heating and cooling methanol fuel on board: semi-welded plate heat exchangers, AlfaNovaM all-stainless units and CBM copper-brazed units (-196°C to 225°C, 51 bar).
Description
Heating and cooling for methanol covers Alfa Laval heat exchangers suited to methanol as marine fuel, which has a low flashpoint and is corrosive. The range handles the temperatures, pressures and corrosion risks of methanol operation on board.
Heat exchanger types
- Semi-welded plate heat exchangers – methanol is heated in laser-welded channels while the heating medium runs in gasketed channels; openable yet robust, with the RefTight™ sealing system and suitable gaskets
- AlfaNovaM – 100% stainless steel, gasket-free units made with patented AlfaFusion technology; corrosion resistant with the smallest footprint, ideal for fuel gas systems on skids
- CBM – copper-brazed, gasket-free units with a small footprint; design temperatures from -196°C up to 225°C at a maximum design pressure of 51 bar
Service
Supported worldwide 24/7 by Alfa Laval Marine Service.
