The excellent piping solution for quality-oriented customers
GEA ECO-MATRIX® is a fully automatic fixed piping system for process tanks in the beverage industry. It provides enhanced product quality and offers significant cost saving opportunities.
The GEA ECO-MATRIX® piping system provides optimum cleaning conditions, thanks to the safe separation of the tank and pipe cleaning regimes. All process lines are directly connected to a compact vertical tank outlet header pipe. There are no dead ends or pockets. The fully automatic piping system ensures fail-safe operation and minimized product losses. GEA ECO-MATRIX® uses GEA’s EHEDG certified VARIVENT® radial sealing double-seat valves with fully drainable safety chamber and integrated double-acting lifting actuator for valve seat cleaning. Their fixed housing connections, welded housings and seat rings mean no seals at the seat ring and thus reduced maintenance.
The use of the ECO-MATRIX® piping system enhances product quality and offers significant cost savings:
ECO-MATRIX and VARIVENT are registered as a trademark in several countries worldwide.
The GEA carbonating system type DICAR-B has been designed for continuous high-accuracy carbonation of beer and beer mix and is mainly applied in the brewing industry.
GEA’s cross-flow membrane filtration units have been specifically designed to deliver a clear, colorless, tasteless and aroma-free neutral alcoholic base. The neutral alcohol base used in a hard seltzer derives from a fermentation process with no distillation step.
Supporting small to large feed rates, and configurable for both batch and continuous processes, the dedicated AromaPlus system is built on our reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filtration technology.
The GEA AromaPlus PRO is a two-stage reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filtration system that makes it possible to cut by potentially 80% or more fresh water draw for diafiltration during beverage dealcoholization.
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.
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.
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.
