Chemical processes
GEA Hybrid Vacuum Systems for producing vacuum within critical areas
The combination of Liquid Jet Vacuum Pumps and Steam Jet Vacuum Pumps is used to produce vacuum within critical areas such as dirty suction conditions, demanding atex conditions and steam saving within chemcial applications where...
GEA graphite ejector for highly corrosive applications
Multi-stage steam jet vacuum pumps in graphite are used to extract corrosive gases and vapors, particularly where halogen compounds are present and stainless are not sufficiently resistant.
Emission Control
GEA Bubble columnt reactor: emission control for temperature-sensitive substances.
Bubble columns allow to conduct and control chemical reactions in the liquid phase when the reactions are rather slow in relation to the gas absorption rate.
GEA technology for efficient aerosol and small particles separation.
The aerosol and particulate matter removal system is full of advantages and uses the principle of inertia to effectively separate aerosols.
GEA Wet gas scrubbers
GEA tailor-made-solutions for the efficient multi-pollutant cleaning of process-and-exhaust gases in diverse applications.
Hydrogen
GEA Jet compressors for the reliable production of green hydrogen.
GEA especially-designed liquid jet gas compressors are now a standard key component in the green hydrogen production process. Ideal to deal with hydorgen’s explosivity, combustion risk and explosions of pure oxygen.
