Emission Control
Heavy Metal Removal
Whether your challenge is mercury control, metal aerosol capture, or integrated multi-pollutant removal, GEA can provide the right technology to meet your environmental and operational objectives.
Industrial processes can release hazardous heavy metals such as mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium into the atmosphere. GEA provides proven heavy metal removal technologies that help customers comply with stringent environmental regulations, protect communities, and recover valuable resources wherever possible. GEA’s solutions are tailored to the specific characteristics of each process and emission stream, ensuring high removal efficiencies, operational reliability, and optimized lifecycle costs.
Comprehensive technologies for heavy metal abatement
GEA offers a broad portfolio of emission control solutions for removing heavy metals from flue gas and process exhaust streams. Depending on the application, plant configuration, and target pollutants, technologies may include:
- Calomel process systems for non-ferrous metal production
- GEA DeMerc for highly efficient advanced mercury removal and recovery
- Wet Electrostatic Precipitators (WESP) for sub-micron particulate and metal aerosol removal
- Spray Drying Absorption (SDA) systems with activated carbon injection for mercury capture
- Ceramic catalyst candle filters for simultaneous particulate, mercury, dioxin, VOC, and NOx control

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.
