Vacuum technology is used extensively in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and oil refining industries and also to remove dissolved gases from water and other liquids. Where industrial processes use the vapor from the product instead of steam, GEA provides completely closed systems that are both ecologically and economically efficient.

Combined Steam Jet and LRVP Systems are based on proven jet pump technology and often used to create and maintain the vacuum.
Dry condensing or ice condensing vacuum systems use cryogenically driven vacuum technology to remove the process vapor used for edible oil deodorization.
With state-of-the-art pilot plants and test benches our R & D Center is optimally equipped for testing in the fields of jet pumps and vacuum systems.
The basic principle of jet pumps consists in the liquid or gas jet being emitted by a nozzle at high speed entraining and accelerating the surrounding liquid, gas or solid matter.
Resource-efficient fashion has been a long-sought ambition amid the fashion industry’s considerable contributions to global carbon emissions. The need to close the loop by recycling textile fibers into virgin-like materials is higher than ever but seemed like a distant dream until now: Circ, GEA’s American customer and pioneer in the field of textile recycling, might be rewriting the future of the fashion industry.
Alternative proteins are promising – yet still expensive to produce. The usual response is that scaling up will solve this issue. But what if the solution was really about getting better, not just bigger? From more efficient, high-yield processes to upcycling waste heat, engineers are reshaping how we grow food.
As anti-cancer drugs become more powerful and complex, GEA is redefining how to safely freeze-dry these life-saving treatments.
