GEA DIOX-2 water deaeration system
The GEA DIOX-2 is a two-stage water deaeration technology that helps to achieve the lowest possible concentration of residual oxygen in your beverage water.
Oxygen in beverages can affect taste and can reduce shelf-life and product quality, so using deaerated water for beverage manufacture is important to help minimize the amount of oxygen in the final product.
GEA offers a range of water deaeration systems, and the GEA DIOX-2 represents an ideal two-stage vacuum deaeration unit for producing deaerated beverage water for both still and carbonated drinks. Dependent on your downstream process, and your expected residual oxygen value, the GEA DIOX-2 water deaeration system can be easily integrated into existing systems.
The first stage of the deaeration process extracts the bulk of the oxygen using vacuum deaeration. Next, CO2 is added in to this pre-deaerated water - to promote the release of oxygen - and the water is transferred to the second stage of the process, where the CO2-oxygen mixture is drawn out by means of a vacuum pump. A discharge pump then carries the deaerated water to the next process stage.
Sealing water consumption is reduced by the integrated temperature control and can optionally be equipped with a sealing water cooler to minimize water losses.
The system is cleaned via the product path.
The GEA carbonating system type DICAR-C has been designed for continuous high-accuracy carbonation of non-alcoholic beverages and is mainly applied in the carbonated soft drinks industry.
The GEA carbonating system type DIMIX-C has been designed for high-precision continuous mixing and carbonation of soft drinks.
