Smit Gas FIN

Alfa Laval Smit Flue Gas is a saturated inert gas system with a low pressure and flue gas type. The smit gas FIN flue system is specifically designed for utilizing the flue gas from oil-fired boilers and is primarily used on crude oil tankers.

flue gas system

With success, Alfa Laval Aalborg introduced in 2004 a new flue gas system, which offers compact design in combination with improved particle removal.

The current systems combine improved particle removal with a compact layout, and they were developed with customer feedback from shipyards, ship owners and ship operators to provide ease of installation and a range of operational advantages.

Fonctionnement

Smit Gas inert gas systems from Alfa Laval are specifically designed to utilize flue gas from oil-fired boilers. The flue gas is extracted from the boilers by fans, after which it is drawn through a scrubber, where the gas is cooled and washed before being delivered to the cargo tanks.
