Vacuum Technology
Air jet vacuum pumps type lvp1 are based on proven jet pump technology and often used when no steam is available as motive medium.
Air jet vacuum pumps use atmospheric air as motive medium. Backed by a liquid ring vacuum pump which produces an intermediate vacuum of 50 to 100 mbar, the air jet vacuum pump can reach a suction pressure of 5 mbar, depending on design and operating conditions.
Whenever it is a question of low energy consumption, it is better to connect a steam jet pump with condenser to the suction side of the liquid ring vacuum pump, whereby the motive medium (steam) of the jet pump is condensed and does not load the liquid ring vacuum pump as is the case with an air jet pump.
Variable - Flow Ejectors are based on proven GEA jet pump technology and often used for heat recovery.
Steam jet ventilators are based on proven jet pump technology and often used to convey air, gases and vapors.
Steam jet compressors type bv1 are based on proven jet pump technology and often used used in evaporating, distillation, cooling, crystallization, deodorization, degassing and drying under vacuum.
Liquid jet liquid pumps are used for conveying and mixing liquids such as water, acids or lye in water and waste water treatment plants.
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.
