GEA CombiJetStar
Liquid Jet Vacuum Pumps in combination of Steam Jet Vacuum Pumps are used in applications to produce vacuum within critical areas.
The GEA CombiJetStar is a combination of a Liquid Jet Vacuum and a Steam Ejector.
It is used in applications to produce vacuum within critical areas such as:
- Dirty suction conditions (solid compounds e.g. dust…)
- Demanding ATEX conditions
- Steam saving (liquid as driving media instead of motive steam).
Applications
Such hybrid vacuum pumps are used to produce vacuum in chemical applications, where condensable media need to be removed mainly under dirty conditions and Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps (LRVPs) are not a suitable option (ATEX, lethal or corrosive service).
It combines the advantages of steam and liquid driven ejectors.
Also in batch operation this kind of hybrid system is a reliable alternative to systems with LRVPs or direct steam units.
What are the advantages of GEA CombiJetStar?
- Reduced steam consumption, as only one steam consumer needs to be installed. Therefore reduced CO2 foodprint.
- No moving parts
- Barometric installation is not required
- Maintenance-free
- Can be installed in virtually all situations (like ATEX, batch-operation)
- Quickly and easily put into operation
- Almost unlimited life, when a suitable material of construction is chosen
- Can be manufactured from various materials of construction
- Low acquisition costs, especially if required equipment already available (like centrifugal pumps or separator-vessels)

Reality check for biotech
The new GEA Application and Technology Center (ATC) in Sarstedt, south of Hannover, is neither a showroom nor a substitute for a lab. It is a place for testing, data collection and early decisions. This is where it becomes clear whether a biological concept can become a robust industrial process. That step is bigger than it may seem.
Shifts in food packaging: 4 trends
Thermoforming has long played a central role in food packaging. Now it is facing a major shift. As regulations tighten, materials evolve and costs rise, form fill seal lines must do more than run reliably – they now shape how food stays fresh, affordable and recyclable. Take a look at the key thermoforming trends informing the food packaging and delivery landscape.
