Multi-stage scrubbers
Exhausts from industrial processes often require cooling, dedusting or removal of gaseous pollutants. In many cases, scrubbers are of advantage for these duties. GEA offers Venturi scrubbers and jet scrubbers which are the most widely employed scrubber types. Often applications require counterflow-columns with packings (packed-bed, packings, trays) or a combination of these columns and jet scrubbers.
Wet scrubber have 3 main tasks:
GEA offers a complete series of scrubber types which can be combined with each other, depending on the application and on the specific requirements. Customized needs are optimally taken into account. A high purity of the exhaust air and low residual product quantities are ensured.
The following scrubber types are used depending on the respective application:
The apparatuses specified above are ideally suitable for dust removal, absorbing pollutants as well as for recovering valuable substances.
High performance separators for fine dusts and aerosols, available in different scales. Also with with customized solutions.
Versatile as fast absorber, de-duster or gas cooler. Operate according to injection principle: no pressure loss, but a pressure increase in the gas flow.
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.
Climate change and a growing world population put increased pressure on the energy-intensive food industry to feed more people without further impacting the planet. George Shepherd, GEA’s Global Technical Sustainability Manager, explains how GEA uses its engineering know-how to help processors produce more sustainably yet increase productivity.
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.
