Inline mixer
GEA Flocmix® Mixer IM3
The IM3 is a specialized mixer for sludge dewatering, enabling precise dosing and rapid incorporation of polymer flocculants. Its high-intensity thin-film mixing ensures optimal flocculant dispersion in solid–liquid separation processes, making it perfect for wastewater treatment.
Key Effects and Benefits
- Achieve polymer savings of up to 30% and cut dilution water by up to 95% for optimized sludge treatment
- Increase sludge dry solids content by up to 3% and boost system throughput for improved dewatering performance
- Reduce sludge water return load, ensuring more stable and efficient plant operation
- Compact system design minimizes reaction zones and intermediate tanks, supporting space-efficient layouts
Areas of Application
Used in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, water and sludge processing, biogas plants, and industries such as paper, tunneling, and mining.
Inline motor mixer
GEA Flocmix® Mixer IM2CA
The IM2CA is a high-intensity motor-driven mixer for flowing liquids, optimized for rapid, homogeneous mixing on demand. It is particularly suited for slurries or post-chemical dosing applications, providing fast, reliable results where immediate mixing is required.
Key Effects and Benefits
- Save up to 30% on polymer and reduce dilution water by up to 95% for more efficient sludge treatment
- Increase sludge dry solids content by up to 3% and improve overall system throughput
- Reduce sludge water return load, supporting stable and efficient plant operation
- Minimize the need for reaction paths and intermediate tanks, enabling compact, space-saving layouts
Areas of Application
Ideal for wastewater treatment, sludge dewatering and digestion, water treatment, and chemical processing. Also applied in biogas plants, paper, tunneling, and mining.
Inline shear mixers
GEA Flocmix® Mixer IMS
Designed for high-performance homogenizing, dispersing, and suspending of solids in liquids, the IMS uses precision rotor–stator technology for intensive mixing. It is ideal for general-purpose industrial mixing, handling a wide range of viscosities and products across chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food applications.
Key Effects and Benefits

GEA Insights
GEA reports profitable growth for 2025 and expects accelerated revenue growth
GEA’s past fiscal year was one of significant growth and further profitability gains. In particular, the technology group substantially increased order intake, with all divisions contributing here. GEA also made progress in all Mission 30 strategic growth areas. In addition, GEA met key interim targets under its climate plan ahead of schedule. Major milestones in fiscal year 2025 were admission to the DAX index, the award of one of the largest contracts in the company’s history, and streamlining of the corporate structure.
How SmartParc is rewriting the rules of food production
Thanks to a new SmartParc manufacturing site, food processors in the U.K. are cutting their running costs and emissions. With GEA heating and cooling technology at its core, this collaborative production model demonstrates how innovation is accelerating the industry’s net-zero ambitions.
The food science playground
“Brewing eggs is like brewing beer.” It’s the kind of comparison that makes you smile – and then it clicks: Something complex suddenly feels simple. Through this personal film, set in the agricultural heartland of the U.S., we explore precision fermentation and the real-world work it takes to turn an idea into food.
