Production lines with optimized integrated process steps
Process Integration
For existing plants GEA can validate the process lines and develop concepts for obtaining a higher plant efficiency with the attention to the feasibility of the sighted/focused measures.
As the customers’ requirements on the design of a new plant differ a lot from each other- our solutions are individually adapted to the tasks.
Intensive relationships between the client´s side and GEA are necessary throughout the project for achieving optimum results and for considering the production process entirely.
Very variable plant concepts are the outcome– due to different raw materials, disposable resources, logistics, national guidelines and other constraints to be respected.
The goal stays the same for all solutions: to figure out the best production processes for our clients for shortest ROI and for lowest total costs of ownership.
Especially the design of entire process lines offers GEA the possibility to make use of its creativity, excellence and technical knowledge.

Dehydration and Purification
Where product purities superior to feasible concentrations through rectification are required, one of these technologies come to operation: Molecular Sieve Technology, Distillation with Entrainer, and Pervaporation through Hydrophilic Membranes.
MVR / TVR heated Distillation Plants
The thermal vapor recompression applies steam jets to raise the temperature level of vapor flows in the plant. Condensation of these boosted flows is then used for the heating or evaporating of lower temperature process flows. Thereby the steam consumption is minimized.
Skid Mounted Distillation Units
The fabrication of compact skid mounted units for smaller product quantities has several advantages for our client.
Multiple Effect Distillation Plants
The core of the distillation range of products is the multiple-effect pressure/vacuum rectification system. The design is largely determined by the characteristic properties of the feed and the specific requirements of the final product.
