Blood Plasma Fractionation
The processing of blood into its various components must meet the very highest requirements to ensure clinical excellence. Because of the inherent variability of the source material and the absolute need for product purity, the demands placed on systems used to manufacture blood- and plasma-derived products are huge. Gentle process conditions and high quality equipment are essential.
The GEA Advantage
A specialist in this field, GEA uses its experience and expertise to unite a range of technologies to create complete processing plants for blood plasma processing, including controlled precipitation, centrifugation and filtration for solid/liquid separation, thermal and chemical inactivation, ultrafiltration/diafiltration, nanofiltration and chromatography. The company has successfully planned and built plants for blood plasma fractionation all over the world.
GEA supplies plant and components for fractionation, concentration, pre- and post-virus inactivation, purification and buffer production, storage and distribution. As well as being an aseptic process, blood plasma fractionation involves precise cooling of the separation vessel at various stages, requiring highly accurate control systems. Depending on the application, plasma may need to be frozen to –30 °C within 60 minutes. GEA can supply equipment to accurately maintain such extremely low temperatures.
An essential part of high-quality blood plasma production is an integrated CIP/SIP system. GEA provides efficient cleaning and sterilization processes to meet your individual demands and to ensure that sterile media is delivered to the right place at the right time. We offer a wide range of cleaning options, from mobile, independent cleaning systems up to diverse CIP satellites fed with conditioned cleaning solutions.
High Standards, High Quality
In addition, the process must comply with a large number of national and international standards and statutory provisions. Manufacturers expect great precision in the manufacture and assembly of their process plant; every detail of the design must comply with the highest standards to avoid production errors. Using high-performance processing equipment from GEA helps to guarantee reliable production.
Whatever you need your process plant for — from the fractionation and manufacture of products such as immunoglobulins or human albumins to Factor VIII/Factor IX — our wide range of plant concepts will provide for any task to be performed in a safe and cost-effective way and take account of any specific requirements or conditions.

Beyond the firewall: Securing what matters at GEA
Companies like GEA process and store large amounts of sensitive data. However, security incidents, from ransomware attacks to physical intrusions and industrial espionage, are ever-expanding. GEA’s effective protection of its business partners’ data – as well as its own proprietary information – is evolving into a competitive advantage. We spoke with Iskro Mollov, GEA’s Chief Information Security Officer, about what it takes to protect a global business in a volatile world.
Smart, stylish, circular: polycotton recycling with Circ
Resource-efficient fashion has been a long-sought ambition amid the fashion industry’s considerable contributions to global carbon emissions. The need to close the loop by recycling textile fibers into virgin-like materials is higher than ever but seemed like a distant dream until now: Circ, GEA’s American customer and pioneer in the field of textile recycling, might be rewriting the future of the fashion industry.
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.
