Waste Management We are dedicated to minimizing waste and promoting sustainable practices throughout our operations. Our waste management strategy includes several key initiatives aimed at reducing, reusing, and recycling materials. In 2023, we recycled 1,100+ metric tons more waste compared to 2022.
Innovations that Empower Customers
1
2 APV Plate Heat Exchangers: Several APV Plate Heat Exchanger models are designed with regeneration features where product passing through can be pre-heated/pre-cooled, saving energy costs by reducing steam requirements.

Advanced Pitch (AP) Impellers: For demanding side-entry mixer applications involving viscous or stratified fluids, the Philadelphia ® Advanced Pitch (AP) impeller has been shown to achieve the desired process outcomes with up to 25% less energy consumption compared to traditional side-entry mixer propellers, based on the energy required to reach 99% homogeneity of the vessel contents.
Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers: Gerstenberg Schröder ® Nexus Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger (SSHE) uses CO 2 instead of ammonia to save up to 30% energy. Testing results show that using CO 2 at -10°C reduces energy consumption in the refrigeration system by up to 30% compared to using an ammonia compressor within the exchanger at 20°C.
All waste is reported in metric tons.
“Continuous improvement requires the support of all solution makers. In the area of waste, we set annual goals to increase recycling and re-use streams while decreasing landfill deposits. We are also focused on the content of our incoming and outgoing products and the waste they produce. These efforts align with our overall business strategy and ensure the business is safer, greener, cost-conscious, and efficient.” Dave Mirek Director, Global Environmental Health & Safety
Rimfrost, a Norwegian-based krill harvesting company, utilizes APV plate heat exchangers and other onboard solutions on its 120-meter (393- foot) seafaring vessel to sustainably process fresh krill for use in Omega-3 oil and protein products.
“Rimfrost prides itself on the sustainability and traceability efforts we put into each and every krill harvest,” said Thore Veddegjerde, Rimfrost Project Director. “The vessel is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to reduce energy consumption and emissions. In addition, further processes are planned to reuse energy to reduce the carbon footprint. Working with SPX FLOW has allowed us to ensure those values continue as we build a better way forward in this industry.”
