GEA developed a range of standard skid mounted units suitable for the production of liquid food concentrates. IceCon® provides an affordable solution for producing high quality concentrates, without losing quality. The losses in the discharged water are negligible.
This generally produces water that can be re-used in any up/downstream processes or can be sent straight to the drain. The newly developed compact series will be offered as a complete solution.
All relevant components for running a freeze concentration plant are installed on three modules that make up the IceCon® Compact equipment range, meeting the standards for container transport. The modules will be commissioned and tested before shipment ensuring a smooth and fast installation and startup period.
The freeze concentrator requires only electricity and by installing a pre-cooling skid energy can be recovered for an even further reduced CO2 footprint.

يُطلب من قطاع الإنتاج الصناعي أن يقلل من استهلاك الموارد، وأن يصبح أكثر ذكاءً، وأن يحافظ على إنتاجية المعدات لفترة أطول. في شركة GEA، يتغير أسلوب الابتكار؛ إذ تتضافر جهود الهندسة، ورؤى العملاء، والخبرة الرقمية، والخدمات في مرحلة مبكرة، أي في الوقت الذي لا يزال فيه بالإمكان تشكيل الحل من جوهره.
