For most companies tank cleaning is a necessary evil, a constant hindrance to maximum throughput. At Alfa Laval we don’t look at tank cleaning in isolation, but rather as an integral link in the production line. By optimising every stage of the cleaning process, it’s possible to have a significant impact on overall plant output.

Our ability to dramatically streamline tank cleaning – and so plant efficiency – hinges on two vital proprietary resources: cutting-edge cleaning heads and an unparalleled knowledge base.

Toftejorg rotary jet heads clean tanks by casting jets of cleaning media against tank walls. The flow of detergent through the head’s turbine and gears causes the nozzles to perform rotations around the vertical and horizontal axes, generating a criss-cross spray pattern inside the tank.
