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.

Reality check for biotech
The new GEA Application and Technology Center (ATC) in Sarstedt, south of Hannover, is neither a showroom nor a substitute for a lab. It is a place for testing, data collection and early decisions. This is where it becomes clear whether a biological concept can become a robust industrial process. That step is bigger than it may seem.
Shifts in food packaging: 4 trends
Thermoforming has long played a central role in food packaging. Now it is facing a major shift. As regulations tighten, materials evolve and costs rise, form fill seal lines must do more than run reliably – they now shape how food stays fresh, affordable and recyclable. Take a look at the key thermoforming trends informing the food packaging and delivery landscape.
