Focus on efficiency, and stay in control
We’ve developed a raft of components and systems to help you optimize your spray drying process.
GEA OptiPartner is an advanced process control solution designed to help improve the productivity and efficiency of your powder spray drying plant, and reduce relative energy use. GEA HotSwirl technology can give you more consistent heating, while GEA Clean Purge and CEE cyclone technologies configured into our spray dryers could help increase yield, and potentially reduce consumption of water and chemicals. Our SANICIP® II bag filter and No Intervention Fines Return System (NIFRS) further help to reduce product loss, and improve productivity and final powder quality.
Spray dryer plant upgrades
While our innovations can be built into a new GEA spray drying plant, we may well be able to upgrade your exiting spray dryer, so you could significantly improve your process without having to invest in a new plant.

GEA Insights
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
