Alfa Laval to supply processing systems for conversion of CVR refinery to renewable diesel

In Sweden, Alfa Laval has entered into an agreement with a subsidiary of CVR Energy, Inc. to supply processing systems for feedstock pre-treatment, part of a strategic investment in the refinery supporting CVR’s expansion into renewable biofuel production. 

Alfa Laval will supply pre-treatment systems, consisting of various equipment such as separators, heat exchangers, pumps and agitators intended to reduce contaminants in the feedstocks before conversion into biofuel. The systems are intended to support a more cost-effective supply of sustainable feedstocks.
