Vacuum Technology
GEA BatchStar® for production optimization through vacuum system upgrading.
Smart & Efficient. Identify bottlenecks & put the vacuum system in the spotlight, bringing productivity increase to success.
The GEA BatchStar® consists of a customized, multi-stage steam jet vacuum system based on a consultative and pre-tested vacuum system arrangement.
This method of holistic process view consulting, redefining of economically optimal point of operation, on-site support for process data collection and in case of existing system modification, we provide plant inspection.
In “Batch Processes” the optimized vacuum system can reduce the total batch time by taken the relevant process steps into the overall design. This method of holistic process view consulting, redefining of economically optimal point of operation, on-site inspection if necessary and final validation by test bench results is called the BatchStar®!
The GEA BatchStar® is designed for our customers’ needs in perspective of the required process conditions.
Particular features:
- Holistic process view consulting
- Redefining of economically optimal point of operation for the vacuum system
- On-site inspection, if necessary
- Final validation by test bench
What are the applications of GEA BatchStar®?
The GEA BatchStar® systems are used to produce vacuum in Food, Pharma and Chemical processes in particular for:
- Driers
- Distillation plants
- Rectifying
- Freeze drying
- Poly-condensation
- Degassing

Beyond the firewall: Securing what matters at GEA
Companies like GEA process and store large amounts of sensitive data. However, security incidents, from ransomware attacks to physical intrusions and industrial espionage, are ever-expanding. GEA’s effective protection of its business partners’ data – as well as its own proprietary information – is evolving into a competitive advantage. We spoke with Iskro Mollov, GEA’s Chief Information Security Officer, about what it takes to protect a global business in a volatile world.
Smart, stylish, circular: polycotton recycling with Circ
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.
New food tipping point
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.
