MEMBRANE PLANTS & SOLUTIONS

GEA custom designs membrane filtration systems that best utilize the technologies of microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, or reverse osmosis for each customer's specific application.

It is now possible to recover more than 90 percent of a spent caustic solution by using pH-resistant nanofiltration (NF) membranes. Benefits include reduced operating costs and better performance.

Condensate from evaporation plants is used as boiler feed water, process, cooling, and rinsing water or is directly discharged into a drainage ditch. For this purpose, the condensate must be purified. Impurities in the condensate can be removed by membrane filtration, in the particular case by reverse osmosis, and high condensate qualities can be achieved.

Our cross-flow membrane filtration pilot units are available to test any application, including clarification, bacteria and spore removal, fractionation, concentration and/or separation including diafiltration, in the food and beverage, dairy, chemical, biotechnology and fermentation industries on-site or at our test centers.

GEA COLDSAN® physically removes undesired microorganisms, dead cells and physical contaminants from cheese brine. COLDSAN® is simple to operate and easy to install in connection with existing brine systems.

Designed to concentrate solids by NF or RO membrane filtration technology, the compact and standardized GEA EasyCon Filtration Unit is available for small-to-medium feed rates.

Membrane filtration is key to the efficiency of many processing plants. It is essential, therefore, to maintain them diligently to maximize profits and keep the membranes in top operating condition.
