Inert gas production

Your tank holds your source of income – and a potential source of danger. Alfa Laval Smit systems for inert gas production ensure a stable, safe tank environment. Our inert gas generator systems have played a crucial role in safe and reliable marine operations for the past 50 years. We produce inert gas for volatile cargo through a number of methods adapted to the combustion safety requirements of different vessels.

Ensure safety with inert gas solutions

Over 50 years of experience with marine inert gas production systems
Unique ultramizing system atomizes fuel oil for soot-free inert gas, even at partial loads
Inert gas generator continuously secures the right fuel-to-air ratio, whatever the required capacity
Highest material and component quality
In-house and onsite operator training

Nearly all our inert gas systems feature the unique Ultramizing system which atomizes fuel oil for soot-free inert gas, even at partial loads

The Smit LNG system for LNG carriers is the flagship of our Inert Gas Systems portfolio, which safely and reliably handles boil-off on vessels with dual-fuel or low-speed diesel engines.

A Smit inert gas system for your vessel type

Mitigate the risks associated with flammable cargo with Alfa Laval Smit solutions. They use a range of methods to produce inert gas and inject it into the tank, adapting to the combustion safety requirements of each vessel. This protects your cargo, crew, vessel – and lessens impact on the environment.
