The sampling valve is used for drawing samples of liquids and viscous media.
These valves are used for taking random samples for monitoring the biological condition of product lines. Suitable products: media without suspended particles and of low viscosity, e.g. water, beer, milk, juices without fruit pulp.
The impact of global warming is increasingly apparent all over the world. Towns and cities everywhere face the same challenge: providing their communities with reliable, affordable, sustainably sourced heat. GEA spoke with an expert in the field, Kenneth Hoffmann, Manager, Heat Pumps at GEA Heating & Refrigeration Technologies, about tackling global warming faster.
Something caught Farmer Tom's eye. Instead of another product demo, GEA showcased innovations via AR. That's only the start of GEA's interactive digital farm.
GEA scientists are working with researchers at the Graz University of Technology to configure a homogenization process and technology that turns eucalyptus pulp into 3D-printed, organic structures mimicking human veins, arteries and other tissues.
