Meeting IMO regulations
Across various processes in the oil and gas industry, including the treatment of water, strict adherence to environmental regulations is crucial. To meet the standards set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), GEA offers specialized high-performance, self-cleaning centrifugal separators and clarifying decanter centrifuges. The goal is to efficiently reduce the oil content in the bilge water to levels below the legally specified limits, often set at 15 ppm or 5 ppm in some regions.
Continuous and reliable operation, along with cost-effective features such as reduced disposal costs and low energy consumption, makes GEA's solutions suitable for both offshore and onshore applications. The emphasis on compliance, efficiency and cost-effectiveness is a common thread in addressing the challenges posed by oil-contaminated bilgewater in the oil and gas industry.
Oil monitor to ensure adherence to legally prescribed limits
We use a special oil-in-water measuring device to monitor the aqueous phase and ensure the purity levels of the de-oiled water. If the required levels of residual oil in the water are exceeded, the liquid is recirculated to the bilge water tank and is only released when it meets the exact environmental requirements.
Advantages of using GEA high-performance separators
GEA plants for treating bilge water, with a high-performance separator as the main component, offer a range of advantages that systematically focus on the requirements of the oil and gas industry. Our treatment systems are designed accordingly to ensure that the required values are achieved safely and sustainably. During this process, the treatment plant separator continuously separates the oil and water phase, while also automatically removing sludge from the bilge water. Not only the significantly reduced disposal costs resulting from this process, but also the low energy consumption and the space-saving design of our separators sustainably reduce operating cost. The recovered oil can be used by operators for different purposes, thus providing additional cost efficiency.

Approfondimenti GEA

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.

Oltre le macchine: come migliorare le prestazioni dell’impianto
Una macchina efficiente non garantisce automaticamente l'efficienza di uno stabilimento. Il vero miglioramento spesso inizia guardando oltre le singole attrezzature e comprendendo come i processi, i sistemi energetici e le decisioni operative si influenzino a vicenda. Si tratta di un approccio olistico pensato per individuare opportunità che altrimenti potrebbero sfuggire.

Come una valvola rivoluziona la produzione di alimenti e bevande
Negli impianti di produzione di alimenti e bevande, le valvole vengono solitamente azionate tramite aria compressa. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology utilizza l'acqua all'interno di un circuito chiuso e controllato digitalmente. Il risultato è una valvola che può essere mantenuta esattamente in posizione e regolata con per piccoli incrementi con grande precisione. Ciò si traduce in un minor consumo energetico e in un maggiore controllo.
