Sea water

With the worldwide population growth and the resultant increase in demand for fresh water for municipalities, agriculture and industry, there is a corresponding increase in the challenges for the need to assure global water demand with innovative technologies. This is because, whereas demand for fresh water is rising, there is a corresponding decline in its availability, and not only climate change but also environmental contamination are further exacerbating the worldwide water crisis. The trend is therefore increasingly moving in the direction of recovering drinking water from salt water. GEA is supporting this development with powerful decanters which enable procedures for sea water desalination to be designed with economic as well as ecological efficiency.

New food tipping point

Alternative proteins are promising – yet still expensive to produce. The usual response is that scaling up will solve this issue. But what if the solution was really about getting better, not just bigger? From more efficient, high-yield processes to upcycling waste heat, engineers are reshaping how we grow food.
