Double-seat valves
The easy solution for CIP feeds: GEA FLOWVENT Double-seal valves can be applied as efficient alternatives for secure separation of incompatible products within CIP systems or gas blocks.
GEA FLOWVENT Double-seal valves can be applied as efficient alternatives for secure separation of incompatible products within CIP systems or gas blocks.
The Double-seal valve separates media in two pipelines. The two seals are both located in one valve disc. Hence, they cannot be moved apart separately as in double-seat valves. Therefore, this valve type is recommend for CIP systems and gas blocks.
Double-seal valves are predominantly used in areas where hygienic safety is not critical, e.g. CIP systems and gas blocks (brewery).

A termoformagem há muito tempo desempenha um papel fundamental na embalagem de alimentos. Agora, ela está passando por uma grande mudança. À medida que as regulamentações se tornam mais rigorosas, os materiais evoluem e os custos aumentam, as linhas de moldagem, enchimento/envase e selagem precisam fazer mais do que apenas operar de forma confiável - elas agora determinam como os alimentos permanecem frescos, acessíveis e recicláveis. Confira as principais tendências em termoformagem que estão moldando o cenário das embalagens e distribuição de alimentos.

Dos pomares do Cabo às prateleiras de lojas em 40 países, a empresa sul-africana de armazenamento Betko construiu seu negócio com base no frescor, no timing e na confiabilidade. Com a tecnologia de refrigeração em atmosfera controlada da GEA, a empresa agora pode conservar maçãs e peras por até 14 meses e reduzir o consumo de energia em 20%, graças a uma parceria de mais de 30 anos que está no centro de tudo isso.
