O.P.S. Oil Purification System
The Oil Purification System (O.P.S.) is the by-pass filtration unit able to maintain high oil quality and to guarantee a continuous oil regeneration by removing particles, water, corrosive gases and impurities enhancing oil lifetime, quality and safety.
Stand-alone system saves time and cost
The O.P.S. filtration system is realized to operate in continuous independently from the homogenizer so the maintenance time doesn’t compromise machine operation and allows a huge costs and time saving for the customers. The O.P.S. thus permits to reduce oil consumption by increasing oil lifetime thanks to continuous oil purification by 100% long-strand cotton fibers (they can capture particles up to 1 micron) and oil dehydration by its flash evaporation process.
How it works
The O.P.S. receives the oil from the homogenizer’s lubricating unit tank; the oil is first forced into a strainer pre-filter then pushed into the main filter made by cotton base and after the filtering process the oil is not under pressure downstream the main filter and returns inside the homogenizer by gravity.
Advantages
- Continuous oil regeneration permits the highest machine performance
- Filters replacement avoids oil change every 2.000 hours
- No contamination (reduced bacterial phenomena) and no condensation
- Accurate and careful filtration system
- Run production guarantee during O.P.S. maintenance
- Installed in an easy-accessible position
- Service intervals are few and far between
- Reduced costs related to the waste of oil
- Environment friendly system
Reimagine liquids
It may surprise you how many products need homogenization in their manufacturing process to make them more compatible with your daily life. Stabilization and a longer shelf life have always been among the highest priorities in many different processing industries but, especially nowadays, as lifestyles continue to change rapidly, they are becoming more and more valued.

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.
