Biopharma cell culture clarification
Single-use disk stack separators bring new ease-of-use and efficiency to operations in labs and production cleanrooms.
Available for fed-batch and perfusion – a world’s first from GEA!
Discover single-use separators to reduce costs, minimize work effort and replace costly filtration area in labs and
production cleanrooms. Automated disk stack separation technology delivers flexible, high-precision performance with
maximum yield and cell viability.
As a world first, the GEA kytero® range offers disk stack separation for batch processes as well as for continuous
perfusion. Gentle processing ensures perfusion and contamination-free run for weeks as well as a stress-free return of
cells.
This high efficiency coupled with the many cost advantages of a compact disk stack centrifuge makes the GEA
kytero® an indispensable separator in single-use processes.
Processes of 500 liters can be upscaled to 2,000 liters with the same bowl technology. Single-use fed-batch variants
may be further upscaled to industrial-size capacities

The closed, single-use separation bowl of all GEA kytero® machines prevents any contact of the product with atmosphere or other machine parts. Another world’s first, the revolutionary no-contact breezeDrive® system without shafts, bearings or mechanical seals prevents the threat of abrasions and resulting purity breach. This innovation is also appreciated for the very low noise level in the production or lab environment.
World’s most compact disk stack pharma separator for smallest R&D test operations.
For the first time, labs will be able to test and upscale with the same bowl technology – the key to secure process transfer and validation of the production line.

Climate change and a growing world population put increased pressure on the energy-intensive food industry to feed more people without further impacting the planet. George Shepherd, GEA’s Global Technical Sustainability Manager, explains how GEA uses its engineering know-how to help processors produce more sustainably yet increase productivity.
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.
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.
