Test. Optimize. Scale.

Feasibility studies

For complex separation challenges, a feasibility study is often the first step in identifying the most effective process strategy. At our test center, we help customers evaluate: Distillation and rectification performance Solvent recovery and purification Removal of volatile compounds Product concentration Separation of complex multicomponent mixtures Recovery of valuable process streams Treatment of difficult, viscous or foaming products Using only small product volumes, our experts generate process data that supports informed process selection and plant design.  

Pilot testing

Pilot-scale trials provide critical insight into distillation performance under realistic operating conditions. The resulting data supports reliable process optimization and scale-up while helping to reduce project risk. Our pilot plants enable evaluation of: Column internals and separation efficiency Reflux ratios and operating conditions Product quality and purity targets Energy requirements and heat integration concepts Fouling tendencies Foaming behavior Process stability and controllability The process data generated during testing feeds directly into plant design and performance calculations for commercial installations.

Analytical services

Reliable product characterization is essential for accurate process development and design. Our laboratories can determine critical physical and chemical properties, including: Viscosity Boiling point elevation Dry matter content Thermal conductivity Product composition Component concentrations Advanced analytical techniques such as GC and HPLC enable detailed characterization of feed streams, intermediates and final products. 

Digital process simulation

In addition to physical testing, GEA uses advanced process simulation tools to evaluate plant performance and optimize system configurations. By combining experimental results with digital modeling, we can: Predict scale-up behavior Compare process alternatives Optimize energy efficiency Evaluate operating scenarios Refine plant configurations before implementation This integrated approach helps reduce uncertainty and accelerate project development.

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.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance

機械の枠を超えて:プラントパフォーマンスのさらなる向上

効率的な機械があれば、それだけで自動的にプラントが効率的になるというわけではありません。真の改善は、多くの場合、個々の設備にとどまらず、プロセス、エネルギーシステム、そして運用上の判断が互いにどのように影響し合っているかを理解することから始まります。これは、ともすれば見過ごされてしまう可能性のある改善の機会を明らかにするために考案された、包括的なアプローチです。

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made

バルブは食品や飲料の製造方法にどのような変革をもたらすのでしょうか

食品・飲料工場では、バルブは一般的に圧縮空気を使用して操作されています。GEA Hydract® Actuation Technologyは、密閉されたデジタル制御回路内で、代わりに水を用いてバルブを駆動します。その結果、バルブを正確に所定の位置に保持し、微調整しながら段階的に操作することが可能になりました。これにより、エネルギー消費量の削減と、制御性の向上が実現します。
