Everyone, whether based in a laboratory or factory, can use these up-to-date and easily accessible methods as part of your standard operating practices. It is a revised and collection of analytical methods based on the original GEA Analytical Methods for Dry Milk Products that have been out of print for several years.
Analytical methods and technologies that have evolved since then are included, just as in some cases, changes in equipment have taken place, and these changes have been taken into account when updating the methods. As methods and/or equipment continue to change, each method will be kept up-to-date viawww.gea.com
All the method documents are available for download in PDF-format.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
