Multi-stage scrubbers
Exhausts from industrial processes often require cooling, dedusting or removal of gaseous pollutants. In many cases, scrubbers are of advantage for these duties. GEA offers Venturi scrubbers and jet scrubbers which are the most widely employed scrubber types. Often applications require counterflow-columns with packings (packed-bed, packings, trays) or a combination of these columns and jet scrubbers.
Wet scrubber have 3 main tasks:
GEA offers a complete series of scrubber types which can be combined with each other, depending on the application and on the specific requirements. Customized needs are optimally taken into account. A high purity of the exhaust air and low residual product quantities are ensured.
The following scrubber types are used depending on the respective application:
The apparatuses specified above are ideally suitable for dust removal, absorbing pollutants as well as for recovering valuable substances.
High performance separators for fine dusts and aerosols, available in different scales. Also with with customized solutions.
Versatile as fast absorber, de-duster or gas cooler. Operate according to injection principle: no pressure loss, but a pressure increase in the gas flow.
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
In a shifting political and economic landscape, GEA stays the course. We spoke with Dr. Nadine Sterley, GEA’s Chief Sustainability Officer, about why sustainability remains central to the company’s business strategy, how GEA is progressing on its ambitious goals and what it takes to turn words into action.
