Performance beyond IMO standards
The GEA bilge Separator with an integrated direct drive is designed for superior purification of oily water on marine vessels, ensuring minimum residual oil content. This advanced system guarantees an oil content of less than 15 ppm, and for more stringent requirements, even below 5 ppm.
The GEA bilge Separator is a revolutionary solution that delivers maximum performance per square meter, a simplified service concept, and intelligent connectivity.
Unlike conventional systems, the GEA bilge Separator achieves 15 ppm oil content across all performance classes – without additional adsorption filters or chemicals. This is made possible through an optimized bowl and disk stack design, ensuring gentle product feed and enhanced clarification.
Key features include:
As environmental regulations tighten, many shipping companies now require guaranteed residual oil content below 5 ppm. The GEA bilge Separator meets these strict requirements by incorporating an adsorption filter, ensuring compliance with even the most rigorous standards.
The GEA bilge Separator is designed with modular components, allowing flexible installation in any bilge water processing system. The key components include feed pump, automatic filter, preheater, self-discharging separator, oil monitor and control panel.
These components are assembled into two modules (feed pump/preheater unit & separator unit) or can be supplied individually for maximum flexibility, even in confined spaces. An adaptive speed-regulating feed pump automatically adjusts to fluctuating feed conditions, ensuring consistent performance.
Beyond superior separation performance, GEA SafetyMaster adds an extra layer of security:
GEA bilge Separators feature a modular design. The main components: Feed pump, automatic filter, preheater, the self-discharging separator, oil monitor and the control panel are installed on two modules (feed pump / preheater unit, separator unit). These modules are assembled to form a complete unit and can also be supplied as individual modules upon request. This means that the system can be customized to meet the local circumstances in an optimum manner even in restricted spaces. An adaptive speed regulating facility of the feed pump adapts the system to the considerably fluctuating feed conditions of the product.
Exactly a quarter of a century ago, in 1996, a real breakthrough was made in centrifugal bilgewater treatment.

As one of our most resource-efficient solutions, our GEA bilge Separator carries the Add Better label.*
The high-efficiency motor transfers energy directly to the bowl without the use of belts and clutches. This reduces the energy consumption of the GEA bilge Separator by 13% compared to the predecessor model.
The GEA bilge Separator has also extended the service interval from 8,000 hours to 16,000 hours and reduced the workload for regular cleaning by 95 percent.
*The Add Better label relates to the serial product GEA bilge Separator, released in September 2021. The comparison refers to its predecessor model, the GEA Bilge Master.

La riduzione degli sprechi è importante per GEA e, sfruttando le potenzialità della tecnologia di liofilizzazione, possiamo trasformare le eccedenze alimentari in prodotti di valore e di lunga durata, contribuendo a ridurre gli sprechi, a prolungare la durata di conservazione e a creare maggiore resilienza nel sistema di approvvigionamento alimentare per le generazioni a venire.
Quando il produttore alimentare sudcoreano Pulmuone, attento alle tematiche ambientali, ha proposto a GEA di sviluppare una versione moderna dei tradizionali noodle freddi (naengmyeon), gli esperti di R&S di GEA si sono dimostrati pronti a cogliere la sfida. Hanno contribuito a sviluppare quello che oggi è un successo commerciale, prodotto con meno acqua ed elettricità rispetto ai metodi precedenti. Il risultato è anche fedele alle origini tradizionali del piatto e ai principi salutistici, di benessere e di sostenibilità di Pulmuone.
