In the pursuit of a carbon-neutral transportation economy, the adoption of biofuels is a critical step toward decarbonizing shipping. The use of biofuels such as HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) and FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Ester) is a proactive choice to reduce emissions and improve sustainability. GEA biofuel Separators are specifically designed for the purification of marine biofuels and offer a reliable solution to ensure efficient performance and longevity.

Biofuel purification excellence

Biofuels such as HVO and FAME offer a cleaner alternative for diesel engines, reducing greenhouse gas and sulfur emissions. However, effective purification is essential to ensure peak performance and prevent costly engine wear. 

GEA biofuel Separators are designed specifically for the unique characteristics of biofuels, efficiently separating water and contaminants to meet the stringent requirements of the industry. Whether it's the acidity of FAME in accordance with EN 14214 or ASTM D6751, or the lower density of HVO compared to fossil fuel oil, our purifiers excel at meeting various biofuel specifications. Meeting the fuel requirements of ISO 8217:2017, GEA biofuel Separators are versatile and can operate seamlessly with any type of biofuel, ensuring compatibility with the evolving landscape of sustainable fuels.
