Clean fuel, reliable power: GEA separation solutions for gas turbines
Gas turbines operate under extreme conditions, where even minor fuel impurities can lead to performance losses or costly downtime. GEA’s advanced separator centrifuges are engineered to remove contaminants from liquid fuels, ensuring clean combustion and protecting turbine components from wear and fouling. By safeguarding critical parts and optimizing fuel quality, GEA solutions help maximize turbine availability and reduce unplanned outages. This results in improved efficiency, lower emissions and extended maintenance intervals - delivering both environmental and economic benefits. Whether in peak load, backup or continuous operation, GEA’s separation technology ensures operators maintain reliable, cost-effective energy production with confidence.

Centrifugal Separator
GEA separators are designed for liquid-based applications. Using centrifugal force, they are used for separating suspensions consisting of two or more phases of different densities, i.e. they can be used for liquid-liquid separation, for liquid-liquid-solid separation or for liquid-solid separation. They are equally as effective at separating liq...
Machine automation & control
Every plant or machine, which is designed for a reliable long-term operation, requires a control unit that enables the communication between the different system parts. It is one of the most important component that guarantees reliability and efficient operation.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
