NOx emission reduction
GEA NOx Separator with integrated direct drive is specially configured for the water treatment in Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) on board marine vessels. After treatment, the purified water can be discharged into the sea.
As environmental regulations on exhaust gases become more stringent, the shipping industry is under pressure to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides (SOx), and fine particulates.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) is a NOx emission reduction technology that ensures IMO Tier III compliance in both diesel and gas operations. Engine manufacturers offer their customers engines with EGR systems for heavy fuel oil (HFO), low-sulfur fuels, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and IMO Tier II and Tier III methanol.
When incorporating EGR technology into marine engines, it is important to consider the treatment of EGR wash water prior to its discharge into the ocean. The recirculated exhaust gas in the EGR process can potentially interact with contaminants such as soot, sulfur compounds and acidic substances.
The GEA NOx Separator is designed for a single task. The system purifies the bleed-off water before discharge according to MEPC.307(73) and optionally to MEPC.259(68).
The GEA marine Separator
Marine separators specialize in the purification of fuel and lube oil as well as bilge and EGR water treatment on board ships.
Bedoeld om verschillende separatorprocessen automatisch te regelen, omvat de maritieme upgradekit van GEA extra software en een geavanceerde, gemakkelijk te monteren hardwarekit. Deze kit zorgt voor een aanzienlijke uitbreiding van de functionaliteit, zodat onze maritieme separatoren nog efficiënter en milieuvriendelijker worden.
GEA bilge Separator with integrated direct drive is designed for cleaning oily water and producing minimum residual oil contents in all performance classes.
GEA bilgEGR Solution is a combined Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and oily bilge water system designed to treat water on board ships. After treatment, the purified water can be discharged into the sea.

GEA's innovative process marks a milestone in the pretreatment of biofuels such as hydro-treated vegetable oil and sustainable aviation fuel. By eliminating the bleaching process, manufacturers benefit from significant savings potential: over 50% lower operating costs and up to 12% less CO2 emissions.
Klimaatverandering en een groeiende wereldbevolking zetten de energie-intensieve voedselindustrie onder toenemende druk om meer mensen te voeden zonder de planeet verder te belasten. George Shepherd, GEA's Global Technical Sustainability Manager, legt uit hoe GEA zijn technische knowhow gebruikt om verwerkers te helpen duurzamer te produceren en tegelijkertijd de productiviteit te verhogen.
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.
