A number of diverse industries, including the chemicals and pharmaceuticals sectors, process inorganic and organic fluids. Many of these fluids, such as solvents, have inherent value, and others contain valuable substances such as minerals, chemical compounds, or nutrients such as proteins.
Ideally, industry aims to increase the service life of these fluids, which not only reduces waste, costs and the use of resources, but can also increase the life of the equipment that they come into operating contact with.
GEA’s expertise and wide-ranging technology portfolios in the areas of evaporation, distillation, membrane filtration and centrifugal separation, mean that we can offer tailor-made equipment for treating industrial fluids, including additional upstream or downstream processing steps. Our plants achieve optimum results for water quality and for the recovery of valuable substances.
GEA further supplies equipment such as jet and vacuum pumps for conveying liquids such as water, oil, acids or alkalis, as well as solids such as sand, gravel, salt, activated carbon, and ion exchange resin, for the treatment of industrial fluids.

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...
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...
Distillation Test Facilities at Karlsruhe R&D Center
With state-of-the-art pilot plants and test benches our R & D Center is optimally equipped for testing in the fields of distillation technology.
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".

Feeding the future: The power of freeze-drying innovation
Waste reduction is important to us at GEA, and by harnessing the power of freeze drying technology, we can transform surplus food into valuable, long-lasting products – helping to reduce waste, extend shelf life and build a more resilient food supply for generations to come.
GEA and Pulmuone honor generations of cold noodle craftsmanship
When plant-forward South Korean food producer Pulmuone brought GEA the challenge of developing a modern spin on the traditional chewy cold (naengmyeon) noodle, GEA’s R&D experts were up to the challenge. They helped develop what is now a commercial hit produced with less water and electricity than previously existing methods. The result is also true to the traditional origins of the dish as well as Pulmuone’s health, well-being and sustainability roots.
