Catalytic gas cleaning
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) diminishes post-combustion NOx by reacting with urea or ammonia to produce nitrogen and water.
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is a way of converting Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) with the aid of a catalyst into nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) at a lower temperature level.
The reductant, typically aqueous ammonia or urea solution is added, injected to the exhaust gas stream for the selective catalytic reduction.
Catalytic oxidation activity (CO/VOC) is achieved by additional impregnation with noble metals.
GEA was the first company to use and continuously improve selective catalytic reduction (SCR) in the glass industry, in the cement industry and now also in metallurgical industry.
With the operating data, the performance measurements carried out and the activity studies of the catalysts used, GEA is constantly adding to its experience for process optimization and for the benefit of users in all industrial sectors.
GEA offers two selective Catalytic Reduction Solutions to control NOx:
- SCR reactor for removal of NOx & CO/VOC
- Catalytic ceramic candle filter (BisCat)

Catalytic ceramic candle filter (BisCat)
BisCat ceramic filters with an embedded catalyst matrix consists of vanadium pentoxide, allow for the removal of particulates, sorption processes for acidic gases, reduction of NOX and the decomposing of dioxins, VOC`s. The filter elements are chemically inert and corrosion resistant. Gas cleaning in one step. A multifunctional filter for the sim...
SCR for removal of NOx & CO/VOC
The SCR process has been used on gas turbines and fossil fuel-fired kilns/boilers. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is the process of using ammonia or urea in the presence of a catalyst to selectively reduce NOx emissions from exhaust gases. The catalyst composed of extruded ceramic honeycomb or corrugated mat consist of vanadium pentoxide, ti...

GEA reports profitable growth for 2025 and expects accelerated revenue growth
GEA’s past fiscal year was one of significant growth and further profitability gains. In particular, the technology group substantially increased order intake, with all divisions contributing here. GEA also made progress in all Mission 30 strategic growth areas. In addition, GEA met key interim targets under its climate plan ahead of schedule. Major milestones in fiscal year 2025 were admission to the DAX index, the award of one of the largest contracts in the company’s history, and streamlining of the corporate structure.
How SmartParc is rewriting the rules of food production
Thanks to a new SmartParc manufacturing site, food processors in the U.K. are cutting their running costs and emissions. With GEA heating and cooling technology at its core, this collaborative production model demonstrates how innovation is accelerating the industry’s net-zero ambitions.
The food science playground
“Brewing eggs is like brewing beer.” It’s the kind of comparison that makes you smile – and then it clicks: Something complex suddenly feels simple. Through this personal film, set in the agricultural heartland of the U.S., we explore precision fermentation and the real-world work it takes to turn an idea into food.
