Crystallization technology
Experience meets innovation. GEA operates more than 40 test centers all over the world to support you in product development.
The fundamental information for the design of a crystallization plant is determined in the laboratory. This includes the chemical composition of the product, its physical properties and the formation of mixed crystals.
For products too sensitive to be shipped to our facility or that require special handling due to safety or health concerns, our team may perform the necessary tests or investigations at customers' premises.
Following options are available:
Simple in design and robust in operation. The working horse for industrial solution crystallization.
Process and mechanical innovation. Compact and Monoblock Forced Circulation Crystallizer.
Fluidized bed crystallizer with the ability to grow the largest crystals at elevated retention time.
Limited attrition and efficient fines destruction – a design to produce coarse crystals with a narrow size distribution.
What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
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.
