A Continuous process is a process where raw materials are continuously fed into a system at the same time as finished product is continuously removed at the end of the process train. The raw materials are processed in very small quantities, compared to batch processes, and in a controlled manner, which allows the operator to have consistent control over the critical process parameters and therefore the critical product quality attributes.
At GEA, we believe that continuous processing improves the quality of pharmaceutical end products: by focusing on quality during the whole product lifecycle, not just “tested in” quality; and by understanding the capability of your processes, managing sources of variability and decreasing any associated risks.

Afvalreductie is belangrijk voor ons bij GEA en door de kracht van vriesdroogtechnologie te benutten, kunnen we voedseloverschotten omzetten in waardevolle, duurzame producten die ons helpen afval te reduceren, de houdbaarheid te verlengen en een beter bestendige voedselvoorzieningsketen voor toekomstige generaties te creëren.
Toen de Zuid-Koreaanse ‘plant-forward’ voedselproducent Pulmuone bij GEA aanklopte met de uitdaging om een moderne draai aan de traditionele taaie koude (naengmyeon-) noodle te geven, konden de R&D-experts van GEA de uitdaging aan. Ze hielpen met de ontwikkeling van wat nu een commerciële hit is die met minder water en elektriciteit wordt geproduceerd dan de reeds bestaande methoden. Het resultaat is ook getrouw aan de traditionele oorsprong van het gerecht, evenals de wortels van Pulmuone op het gebied van gezondheid, welzijn en duurzaamheid.
