Emission control
Refinery
Protecting your planet means knowing exactly how much and where to invest to make your process chain as environmental-friendly as possible. Production performance can be optimized through emission control technology within the refinery itself or integrated petrochemical production, to considerably improve economics and meet governmental regulations. Becoming a part of the so called “Green Industry”, emission control technology is required. Customers from this industrial sector have been relying on GEA innovative technology for ages. As a leader in innovative technology we keep on working for revolutionary technology for the chemicals and refinery industry sector as well as keep our existing solutions always up to date.

CO2 saving processes
CO2 savings come from reducing fossil fuel demand either by increasing energy efficiency or by separating CO2 from flue gas streams along with long-term fixation in valuable products or storage. GEA offers products and processes for all relevant stages.
Cooling, quenching & conditioning
The Rapid Cooling or Quenching of gas streams is used in several essential applications in the process industries.
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".
Filtration and Separation
Efficient dedusting of flue and exhaust gas with GEA´s reliable filtration and separation systems.

Making milk production more sustainable for a growing world
The world's population is growing and with it demand for milk. Dairy is an essential component of many global diets. However, its production can be resource-intensive and impact the environment. GEA’s Christian Müller, Senior Director Sustainability Farm Technologies, sheds light on how technological innovations powered by GEA make milk production more efficient and profitable.
Clean machines safe food: The power of hygienic design
Every safe beverage and bite of food is a victory against invisible microbial threats – a battle shaped by a century of hygienic process design. With more than 100 years of engineering and hygienic design know-how, GEA sets the industry standard for processing equipment that protects food and saves lives.
Filtration sensation: The washing machine principle
Engineering innovation often takes the form of incremental gains. Once in a while, it takes a leap. Case in point: The washing machine. Launched in September 2022, two new GEA software solutions are upending convention and delivering similarly dramatic efficiency gains in the resource-intensive process of membrane filtration.
