The decarbonization of shipping plays a crucial role on the road to a climate-neutral transport economy. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has set a goal of achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping by or around 2050. Checkpoints for 2030 aim to reduce GHG emissions by 20-30% and for 2040 by 70-80% compared to 2008.
The vast majority of ocean-going vessels run on heavy fuel oil. This contributes to about 3 percent of global CO2 emissions and ship owners need to consider more sustainable fuel sources. The switch to alternative fuels is necessary to limit greenhouse gas emissions in international maritime transport as quickly as possible and to achieve the IMO's CO2reduction targets.
Among the various fuel solutions available to ship operators, biofuels offer a good alternative. Carbon emissions are lower compared to fossil fuels and sustainability criteria can be met.
Existing engines can generally use biofuels without major fuel line modifications. Therefore, biofuels are already seen as a bridge fuel for future fuels and are being used as a retrofit for existing vessels to achieve initial energy and CO2 savings.
GEA biofuel Separators are specifically designed for the unique characteristics of biofuels, efficiently separating water and contaminants to meet the stringent requirements of the industry.
GEA also offers the option of upgrading older generations such as OSC, OSD, and OSE Separators to make them compatible with the unique characteristics of biofuels. For many years, GEA separators, regardless of generation, have proven excellent separation performance for biofuels on board ships.

A redução do desperdício é importante para nós na GEA e, ao aproveitar o poder da tecnologia de liofilização, podemos transformar o excedente de alimentos em produtos valiosos e duradouros - ajudando a reduzir o desperdício, a estender a vida útil e a construir uma oferta alimentar mais resiliente para as próximas gerações.
Quando o fabricante de alimentos sul-coreano Pulmuone trouxe à GEA o desafio de desenvolver uma versão moderna do tradicional noodle frio elástico (naengmyeon), os especialistas em P&D da GEA estiveram à altura do desafio. Eles ajudaram a desenvolver o que hoje é um sucesso comercial produzido com menos água e eletricidade do que os métodos já existentes. O resultado também é fiel às origens tradicionais do prato, bem como às bases de saúde, bem-estar e sustentabilidade da Pulmuone.
