Industrial distillation is a proven technology used to purify substances or separate components of a mixture based on their different boiling points.
This technique involves heating a liquid mixture to create vapor, which is then cooled and condensed back into a liquid state, resulting in a purified product called distillate.
One advantage is the ability to separate a mixture’s components without adding substances such as adsorbents or additional solvents. The process is used across a range of manufacturing and purification applications.
Applications
Distillation is used across industries such as:
Chemical industry
- Production of industrial chemicals such as methanol and other chemical raw materials.
- Petroleum refining.

- Water desalination.
- Water treatment processes.
Food & Beverage industry
- Alcoholic beverage production.
- Concentrate production
- Impurity removal
- Product purification
Pharmaceutical industry
- Supporting purity and consistency in large-scale drug production.
- Supporting compliance with ingredient purity standards.

Insights da 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.
Além da máquina: como alcançar um melhor desempenho da planta
Uma máquina eficiente não significa, por si só, uma fábrica eficiente. A verdadeira melhoria geralmente começa quando se vai além dos equipamentos individuais e se compreende como os processos, os sistemas de energia e as decisões operacionais se afetam mutuamente. É uma abordagem integral concebida para identificar oportunidades que, de outra forma, poderiam passar despercebidas.
Como uma válvula revoluciona a forma como alimentos e bebidas são produzidos
Em plantas de alimentos e bebidas, as válvulas são normalmente acionadas por meio de ar comprimido. A GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology aciona as válvulas por meio de água, em um circuito fechado e controlado digitalmente. O resultado é uma válvula que pode ser mantida exatamente no lugar e ajustada em etapas precisas. Isso resulta em menor consumo de energia e maior controle.
