Fluids, pumped from the compression block to the homogenizing valve, pass through the valve and thanks to fluid dynamics energy, particles break down to the order of magnitude of micrometers and nanometers, depending on the characteristics of the product.
The research and design of GEA valves are based on high technologies able to work at the lowest pressure degree valuable, that’s why we can optimize the homogenization process of homogenizers ensuring both desired results and lesser energizing operation consumption.
GEA homogenizing valves can vary for design and dimension, according to micronization and dispersion the product required. A wide range of valves is available to satisfy every needs in relation to different flow rate and pressure rate combinations, that might change for various applications.

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.
