Benefits of natural circulation
• Lower capital expenditure (CAPEX)
• Lower operational expenditure (OPEX)
• Maximized uptime and operational safety
• Lower parasitic electricity consumption for steam generation
• Easy boiler water chemistry control. Tolerant to varying
make-up water quality and no need for condensate
polishing
• Lower weight and less crowded layout due to simpler
circulation line piping when compared to conventional
forced-circulation systems
Extended scope
Alfa Laval’s supply comprises a high number of in-house
products beyond the HRSGs themselves, such as plate heat
ex-changers, steam drums, feed-water deaerator tanks,
condensate tanks, blow-down tanks and solutions for boiler water
chemistry management. The remaining equipment, such as
pumps, instrumentation and valves, are sourced from reputable
makers who are suitable for the offshore environment and your
specification levels. The wide internal scope, combined with Alfa
Laval steam system expertise, ensures professional customer
support – all the way from concept development to ser-vice
requirements over the solution lifetime.
