Space Optimised

Alfa Laval Ziepack

Compact welded in column condensers and reboilers for demanding refinery and petrochemical processes.

Process Integration Columns

Ziepack is a plate heat exchanger configuration designed to integrate into column heads or vessels. Utilising laser welding and hydroforming, it provides heat transfer capability while minimising physical space and pressure drops.

Configured for boiling and condensing duties, it reduces structural piping requirements in new builds and plant retrofits.
