Fertilizers
GEA has extensive experience in the design, manufacture and installation of a range of processing equipment for the Fertilizer Industry. GEA has designed numerous solutions to leading producers throughout the world with designs based on proprietary know-how as well as licensed technology.
Fertilizers and intermediate materials processed include:
- Ammonium Nitrate AN
- Ammonium Sulphate
- Calcium Ammonium Nitrate CAN
- Compound Fertilizers
- Diammonium Phosphate DAP
- Granular Triple Super Phosphate GTSP
- Monoammonium Phosphate MAP
- NPK
- Potash
- Proprietary Formulations
- Rock Phosphate
- Triple Super Phosphate TSP
- Urea
During the production of fertilizer a large volume of exhaust is generated and needs to be treated. Generally first dust & particle removal apply followed by physical and chemical absorption process.
These by-products often contain components such as ammonia, phosphate or urea. To remove these components, GEA designs gas scrubbing systems consisting of a combination of dry and wet gas scrubbing stages.

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".
