Valuable sidestreams
At a time when sustainability issues are taking center stage, the production industry is faced with many challenges, including reducing emissions and the use of natural resources. All of this, coupled with keeping CAPEX and OPEX low, getting the most out of production processes and minimizing production shutdowns, creates a difficult space to navigate. Fortunately, there are ways to create value out of sidestreams while reducing overall water consumption.
To cite one example, the concentrated nutrient source that’s obtained after removing water by evaporation from an effluent stream can be dried together with the fiber to make a protein and energy rich product that’s suitable for use in animal feed. Not only does it maximize the output from your raw materials, it’s better for the environment too.
Tap into potential

Innovating for impact: shaping better solutions for customers
Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
