Clarifying Decanters for Oil & Gas
The higher demand for hydrocarbons is pushing us further into a tough environment. New high-tech rigs / FPSOs are developed to cope with these new challenges. Our contribution is to help you protect our fragile environment and to maintain the “zero discharge” philosophy.
Our available decanters for this application have a low bowl angle for optimal thickening and a hydraulic scroll drive for maximum power. We have also the patented bowl design for handling of brine with a specific gravity of up to 1.5 sg.
GEA has developed special decanters for treating drilling fluids. Apart from high-performing and top separation efficiency the decanter centrifuges distinguish themselves through safe operation and robust design. The decanter centrifuges are self-contained skid mounted centrifuge systems on a single frame with integrated control panel. They are suitable for installation in ATEX Ex-Zone 1 (Category 2G) Temperature Class T3 according to European Standards when treating Drilling Mud (classified as non-explosive product), or US equivalent class 1, Division 1.

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.
