Customized CO2 capture and utilization
GEA offers a wide range of technologies for the utilization and storage of CO2. Our carbon capture and utilization solutions are specifically tailored to the needs of the cement industry, chemical industry, iron and steel industry, waste management, bioenergy, and hard-to-abate industries. We use cutting-edge technologies to capture CO2 efficiently and convert it into valuable products or store it safely. Our expertise covers the design, implementation, and maintenance of the plants.
CO2 liquefaction: Optimal utilization of captured CO2
In our carbon dioxide liquefaction plant, gaseous CO2 is purified, compressed, and cooled to make it available as a liquid, food-grade product that complies with EIGA standards. This technology enables CO2 in liquid form to be used directly or sold. We offer flexible solutions for collection by rail, truck, or pipeline. To increase flexibility and handle partial loads, the treatment plant can be extended with an intermediate storage facility. Additionally, the thermal energy generated during CO2 compression can be reintegrated into a heat transfer system to promote sustainable and economical operation. This makes CO2 liquefaction an attractive option for companies aiming to reduce their emissions and achieve economic benefits as well.
Methanol production from carbon dioxide and hydrogen: Sustainable chemical production
Methanol is a highly versatile chemical that is used as a direct fuel, as a precursor for advanced fuels and additives, and as a chemical building block for the production of valuable intermediates such as ethers and esters. The production of methanol from CO2 and hydrogen requires complex synthesis and upgrading steps. GEA offers comprehensive solutions that cover the entire value chain from hydrogen and carbon dioxide to highly concentrated methanol. Due to our industrial partnerships, we can ensure that our customers have access to state-of-the-art technologies and processes to produce methanol efficiently and sustainably. This not only helps to reduce CO2 emissions but also offers economic benefits by using a valuable co-product.
Carbonate production without hydrogen: Efficient utilization of carbon dioxide
Compared to other ways of using CO2, the production of carbonates has the advantage that no activation of the CO2 with hydrogen is required. Carbonates are widely used in various industries, such as glass, chemicals, pulp and paper, iron and steel, and are used for a variety of purposes. The extensive experience of GEA in crystallization technologies, enables us to act as a technology supplier for carbonate and bicarbonate projects with a production capacity of several 100 tons per day.

La ecuación del agua
En toda Europa, la sequía es una realidad recurrente que ya no se limita al sur. Si bien el agua influye cada vez más en dónde eligen ubicarse las industrias, su valor viene determinado por el contexto local. Existen numerosas vías tecnológicas para lograr la eficiencia hídrica en los procesos industriales, pero la ubicación, las necesidades energéticas y otros factores también son fundamentales.
