Navigating the HVO pretreatment journey: A virtual event

Discover how to successfully navigate each stage of the HVO pretreatment journey from prepurchase to design and delivery and ongoing servicing.

The journey to turn oils and fats into renewable fuels is highly complex, and getting a HVO pretreatment plant fully operational is a strategic investment. The HVO process requires efficient and reliable pretreatment of feedstocks to remove impurities that are naturally present. Robust, flexible solutions and deep process knowledge are required to ensure you get your HVO pretreatment right, on time.

With constrained feedstock availability, pretreatment processes and units should be adaptable to handle new types of feedstocks in the future without impacting HVO purity and quality. Additionally, equipment fouling and clogging can lead to frequent maintenance and shutdowns, reducing operational efficiency by 10-15%.  

Discover how Alfa Laval experts can help you overcome these challenges to get your HVO pretreatment right, on time. Join our virtual event on March 20th to learn how to successfully navigate the pretreatment journey.

Our experts will discuss: 

  • Insights from global markets and regional variations 
  • Considerations and challenges to be mindful of during prepurchase, design and delivery and ongoing servicing 
  • Managing feedstock availability constraints 
  • Case studies from customers who have successfully delivered HVO pretreatment to produce high quality, impurity free feedstock.
