MOSCOW (MRC) -- Alfa Laval, a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order to supply Alfa Laval OLMI heat exchangers to a petrochemical plant in Turkmenistan, said Uk.finance.
The order, booked in the Energy & Process segment late March, has a value of approximately SEK 70 million and delivery is scheduled for 2016.
The Alfa Laval OLMI heat exchangers will be used to increase the yield and recover energy in the production of ethylene, an important ingredient for the manufacturing of industrial chemicals and plastics products.

A number of industrial facilities worth USD10 billion, including a gas chemical complex in Kyyanly, will be built with Japanese capital in Turkmenistan in the near future.
