Inorganic chemicals
From alumina to zinc compounds, GEA is able to offer customers high performance process systems and in-depth application know-how, giving an overall distinct competitive advantage to produce at high rates, reduced cost and improved efficiency.
Comprehensive Solutions
Whether your feed is in liquid, suspended Crystal or solid form, we help you find the right solution:
Evaporation and Crystallization
In the chemical industry GEA evaporators and crystallizers are integrated in various production processes for inorganic products and organic compounds. Our wide range of proprietary equipment includes large capacity pre-evaporator systems as well as fine chemicals crystallization units.
References include: Sodium and Potassium chloride, Sodium and Ammonium sulphate, Potassium nitrate or Potassium and Sodium carbonate.
Drying
A complete range of industrial drying systems to dry granules, cakes, powders, sludges and slurries. Feed material can be in liquid, suspended crystal or solid form.
GEA helps industrials meet different efficiency, safety and environmental requirements. As may inorganic chemicals often include hazardous ingredients, all our plants are designed to meet the strictest standards related to explosion and emission control systems.

Centrifugal Separator
GEA separators are designed for liquid-based applications. Using centrifugal force, they are used for separating suspensions consisting of two or more phases of different densities, i.e. they can be used for liquid-liquid separation, for liquid-liquid-solid separation or for liquid-solid separation. They are equally as effective at separating liq...
Cooling, quenching & conditioning
The Rapid Cooling or Quenching of gas streams is used in several essential applications in the process industries.
Decanter Centrifuge
The decanter’s hour has come as soon as the solids content in the suspension to be processed is particularly high. These machines provide the benefits of high clarifying efficiency and maximum dewatering as well as the separation of liquids with the simultaneous removal of solids. The main requirements in this respect include a high bowl speed, a...
Ejector Systems
Ejectors, are devices for the conveyance, compression or mixing of gases, vapors, liquids or solids in which a gaseous or liquid medium serves as the motive force. They are "pumps without moving parts".

GEA Insights
From fossil fuels to future-ready: The rise of heat pumps
While the initial interest in heat pumps was to save on operating costs, reducing emissions is now the main driver for the technology. Learn more about how GEA is spearheading efforts to increase energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions through hidden champion heat pump technology for industrial and district heating sectors.
A new recipe for indulgence
What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
Fueling the circular economy in shipping
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
