State-of-the-art MICROPARTICULATION unit
The GEA MICRO FORMULA® units are easy to operate and come as standardized modules, in different sizes to match your capacity requirements. The system is state-of-the-art for enabling sustainable, highly reproducible, and high-quality microparticulation of whey proteins.
The GEA MICRO FORMULA® units offer unique features, such as our proprietary temperature, time, shear (TTS) unit, which utilizes standard flow components, and enables complete control of the heat protein denaturation, particle size and distribution, as well as, most importantly, functionality of the resulting microparticulated whey protein concentrates (WPC).
Our GEA MICRO FORMULA® system offers a technology for formulating microparticulated whey protein concentrates (WPC) that display excellent functional characteristics, from highly reproducible emulsification and improved water-binding, to optimized stabilizing properties, high interactivity with dairy and food matrixes, and a highly reproducible particle size of 1-10 µm. Using GEA MICRO FORMULA® will help you to generate products with high viscosity - similar to that of cream or drinking yogurts - great mouthfeel, and desired near-white color.
Microparticulation is ideal for generating whey products that can replace fat or milk protein in a wide variety of dairy and food applications. These whey proteins aren’t just inactive ingredients, their functional properties can improve the properties and yield of the final food product, and result in a great taste and texture.
For example, microparticulated WPC is commonly used to replace fats, generating lower-fat, great tasting products. These include:

We want you to be confident that our technologies will fit in with your processes and generate high-quality products. But because we don’t expect you to just take our word for it, we offer the GEA MICRO FORMULA® pilot units for rental. This gives you the opportunity to test the microparticulation technology with your raw materials on site, as part of a complete process. Carrying out tests at your own facility means you don’t have to consider any negative effects that transporting raw materials to another test site might have on the process, which could compromise test results. You can assess our equipment alongside existing equipment, such as ultrafiltration systems for membrane filtration, and with your product packaging preferences, so you can see how your complete production line functions and evaluate the final product.
All of our GEA pilot units can be shipped globally, and we can even send our GEA experts to work with you, if you’d like that extra support.
Micro Formula Unit for Microparticulation
GEA cross-flow filtration with robust ceramic membranes are used for the effective recovery of beer from tank bottoms. Modular plants are supplied on compact skids in three standard sizes with processing capacities of approximately 250 hl, 500 hl and 1000 hl per day depending on the dry solids content of the product.
Теперь можно извлекать более 90 процентов отработанного каустического раствора с помощью устойчивых к рН нанофильтрационных (НФ) мембран. Преимущества включают снижение эксплуатационных расходов и повышение производительности.
Безотходная фильтрация пива с использованием мембран поперечного потока Система Clearamic BeerFiltration – это первая безотходная технология фильтрации пива. Нет необходимости в использовании порошков для фильтрования. Таким образом, в критической точке обеспечивается устойчивая и вместе с тем экономичная система управления. Одновременно с этим, ...
Обеспечивающая малую и большую скорости подачи и возможности настройки параметров как для периодических, так и для непрерывных технологических процессов, специализированная система AromaPlus основана на разработанной нами технологии мембранной фильтрации с обратным осмосом (RO).
