Valves for oil draining.
SSO QUICK CLOSING VALVES
GEA quick closing valves are designed for installation in oil drain pipelines and in the parts of a system which are at the highest risk of failure, such as level indicators, sight glasses, flexible pipes etc. They open when the lever is being pulled. The system’s pressure acting upon the sealing piston supports the opening. The pressure spring is dimensioned to have the sealing piston opened autonomously at a system pressure of > 20 bar. If the lever is released, the sealing piston closes automatically. Sealing at the valve seat is provided by a chloroprene o-ring.

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.
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.
