Safety devices for protecting refrigeration systems from excess pressure

RVD Constant Pressure Valves

GEA constant pressure valves are autonomously working regulating devices (constant pressure function) within the oil management systems of screw compressor packages, to ensure defined minimum differential pressure (e. g. 3 bar, 4 bar etc.) or oil injection pressure during the start-up phase and running of the screw compressor. The constant pressure valve is equipped with a back-pressure compensation sealing element. The valve is opened by the pressure of the operating medium below the valve disc and depends on the set opening pressure of the valve (spring-loaded). The set pressure is determined by the customer and is set by the manufacturer

A new recipe for indulgence

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.

Fueling the circular economy in shipping

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.

OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE, CO2 recovery

Closing the loop: key lessons for breweries from OeTTINGER

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.
