State-of-the-Art Technology for a Complete Solution
GEA Filtration is a world leader in cross-flow membrane filtration, with reverse osmosis and nano-, ultra-, and micro-filtration as core technologies.
Ceramic Membranes
Dynamic filtration using ceramic membrane elements allows for the maximum mechanical and chemical stability, coupled with the lowest possible flow resistance. Membranes are constructed using a support made of pure α-Al2O3 with a macroporous structure. The membrane is applied to this support material and consists of at least one, but usually several, layers of highly porous ceramic, with a precisely defined texture. The layer with the finest porosity determines the filtration characteristics.
GEA offers a broad, application-specific range of membranes and element geometries with rated pore sizes of 1 to 1400 nanometers making them ideal for use in microfiltration and ultrafiltration processes.
The superb properties of such membrane elements are used successfully in GEA filter systems worldwide:
The ceramic multi-channel element
The body of the basic module, the ceramic multi-channel element, is manufactured using highly porous ceramic material with several round channels running parallel to its longitudinal axis, with the membrane mounted on the surface.
The feed material flows into the channels along the membrane. A partial stream then passes through the membrane as filtrate and is discharged by the carrier material. The very high permeability makes the pressure loss on passing through the carrier so low that it is negligible compared with the pressure drop when passing through the extremely thin membrane.

La vita di Michele Schneider ha avuto una svolta inaspettata quando ha sposato il marito Virlei e i due hanno avviato l'azienda lattiero-casearia Fazenda Inovação Schneider Milk in Brasile. Durante la sua prima esperienza nell'allevamento di bestiame da latte, Michele ha visto crescere rapidamente la sua passione per gli animali e per l'azienda. E così anche il suo carico di lavoro.
