Solid-Wall Bowl Separators for Chemical Products
GEA solid-wall disk-type separators are used primarily for separating liquid mixtures with no or with only minimal solid contents (less than < 0.1 % by vol.).
The separator is equipped with a solid-wall bowl. The product is separated into a light phase and a heavy phase within the disk stack. The separated components are discharged under pressure by means of the corresponding centripetal pumps through pipe outlets. The use of a disk stack increases the equivalent clarification area Σ of the separator Solid-wall, disk-type separators can be offered with all product-contacted components made of high corrosion resistant materials.
Depending on the design, the location of the discharge drain hole is in the bottom of the bowl. This prevents the operator or service personnel from coming into contact with extremely dangerous substances.

A new recipe for indulgence
What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
Fueling the circular economy in shipping
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
Closing the loop: key lessons for breweries from OeTTINGER
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
