🤖 Generative AI - Hype or Hope? AI is not a new field of science. In the 1950s scientists discussed machine learning and the term Artificial Intelligence was mentioned as early as 1955. At Alfa Laval we use AI to optimize processes and automate production and in our AI Centre of Excellence, we explore new ways to create business value by using AI and Generative AI. 💡 Generative AI and Large Language Models, LLM are relatively new and it's a fast-changing landscape. This will change the way we think about content, the way we search for it, and the way we curate it. It will also change the way we make decisions around all the data we have. “Generative AI is a valuable enabler for how we can achieve scalability for Alfa Laval towards our 2030 ambition of becoming a 100 billion SEK company. This is a fantastic opportunity for how we can leverage technology to generate bottom-line value for Alfa Laval”, says Susanne Thorskov Hansen, Chief Information Officer. 🌐✨ Many companies are thinking about Generative AI, talking about it and believing in its opportunities. But that will not make any difference. If companies want to realize opportunities, they must get started and explore the potential. Some areas where GenAI can be integrated to support organizations: 📈 Productivity - making summaries of documents, preparing and creating actions from meetings. 🔄 Process automation - making suggestions for improvement of processes. Regardless of whether it's a manual or machine process, it can be improved by using AI. 💡 Product innovation - from research and discoveries to adding AI solutions on top of existing products or new business models driven by AI overlay. #AlfaLaval #PioneeringPositiveImpact #Innovation #AI

🎙️ Exciting podcast feature! 🌟 Tune in as Alfa Laval takes the spotlight on the Everything About Hydrogen Podcast. Our expert, Tue Johannessen, from the new business unit Electrolyzer & Fuel Cell Technologies, will discuss hydrogen's role in challenging industries. Discover the progress we are achieving in green hydrogen technology and its impact on sustainable energy. A conversation full of innovation awaits you – don't miss it! 🌱💡 👉 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/diJD5uFf Direct electrification is crucial in the global pursuit of net zero emissions. However, nearly 50% of our energy requirements cannot be met through electrification alone. With projections indicating that green hydrogen could meet more than 20% of global energy needs by 2050, the race to net zero emissions is on. Let's accelerate the change in the green hydrogen sector.🌍🚀 #AlfaLaval #PioneeringPositiveImpact #Sustainability #PodCast #EverythingAboutHydrogen

At Alfa Laval, we are not just about leading-edge technology; we're about creating a sustainable future. 🌍 Stonehenge, in Wiltshire, is a protected World Heritage Site, managed by English Heritage, which attracts more than a million visitors a year. 🛠️💧The English Heritage appointed Nijhuis Industries to construct the wastewater treatment plant for their new Stonehenge Visitor Centre, in response to the increasing number of people heading to the iconic stone circle. 🌱 Nijhuis approached Alfa Laval to provide a solution for recycling final effluent for non-potable uses, with some key requirements, including the installation of an above-ground system and the provision of a sufficient supply of high quality recycled (grey) water for use in toilet flushing and irrigation. We're proud to have partnered with Nijhuis Saur Industries to meet and exceed the UK Environment Agency’s standards, providing a system that's both efficient and discreet, safeguarding the site's historic landscape. 🌱 🤝🌳 This year marks a decade since Alfa Laval's membrane bioreactor technology was installed at the Stonehenge Visitor Centre. This is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and innovation. We're delighted to be part of preserving the legacy of Stonehenge for future generations and introducing the latest technology to revolutionize visitor facilities at one of England’s most ancient historic sites.
