Orbital Cleaners
The Tornado is a liquid driven Orbital Cleaner that can be used for mobile or stationary applications. The round jet nozzles rotate around two axes simultaneously and produce focused high impact jets generating a highly efficient 3D wash pattern.
The hygienic and compact design combined with the high power jets, makes it perfect for cleaning a variety of vessel sizes and equipment, also where hygiene is a priority. The unit can be used in the brewing, beverage, dairy, food, chemicals, coatings and transport industries -as permanently fixed or mobile installations.

GEA centrifuges enable wastewater reuse, resource recovery, and water security by turning biosolids into value in a world facing growing water scarcity.
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
