CROSS-FLOW MEMBRANE FILTRATION TECHNOLOGY
We offer a wide range of membrane filtration equipment and can work with you at every step, from initial testing with benchtop and pilot units to full-scale, commercial production.
Pilot units are ideal for developing new products, optimizing process parameters, testing different membrane types, achieving new concentration levels, and making product samples, etc. Pilot trial test results can easily be translated to industrial scale production.
There are applications throughout the food and beverage, dairy, chemical, biotechnology and fermentation industries in which membrane filtration excels. You can test a wide variety of applications, including clarification, bacteria and spore removal, fractionation, concentration and/or separation including diafiltration.
Our pilot units vary from small- to medium-scale and offer a wide range of capacities, depending on the application tested. The pilot units can simulate the operating behavior of full-scale production and can be adapted to run according to your required specifications. Data collected from pilot trials can then be used to determine process parameters for the design of future full-scale production units.
Renting pilot units
We provide rental pilot units for testing membrane filtration equipment and solutions at your facilities in connection with other process equipment. All GEA pilot units can be shipped globally, allowing you to perform tests – either on your own or with support from GEA – using your own raw materials and your own packaging. This method eliminates the risks associated with the storage and transport of raw material which can otherwise compromise testing.
In-house testing at GEA site
Alternatively, customers can elect to test filtration equipment and solutions at GEA test centers. Featuring state-of-the-art GEA pilot units, our facilities in Ahaus and Karlsruhe (Germany), and in Hudson, WI (U.S.) are optimally equipped to perform pilot studies on the full range of GEA membrane filtration technologies. Our diverse range of membrane types supports the processing of high-quality raw materials.
GEA pilot units are available in a wide range of membrane and module configurations, including:
Working with GEA means partnering with a supplier that has been in the membrane filtration business since its inception. Via our dedicated global team of experienced engineers and process experts, GEA offers the following pilot unit services:
La domanda di caffè è in forte ascesa. Scoprite come la tecnologia di estrazione continua di GEA aumenta la produttività, preserva l'aroma e consente di risparmiare risorse.
L'impatto del riscaldamento globale è sempre più evidente in tutto il mondo. Ovunque, le città si trovano ad affrontare la stessa sfida: fornire alle loro comunità un sistema di riscaldamento affidabile, conveniente e sostenibile. GEA ha discusso con un esperto del settore, Kenneth Hoffmann, Manager, Heat Pumps di GEA Heating & Refrigeration Technologies, su come affrontare più rapidamente il riscaldamento globale.
Qualcosa ha attirato l'attenzione di Tom. Invece di un'altra dimostrazione di prodotti, GEA ha presentato le innovazioni tramite la realtà aumentata. Questo è solo l'inizio della fattoria digitale interattiva di GEA.
