GEA is one of the world’s largest systems suppliers for the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors. Our portfolio includes machinery and plants as well as advanced process technology, components, and comprehensive services. Used across diverse industries, they enhance the sustainability and efficiency of production processes globally.

With extensive experience and separation know-how for the production and refining of edible oils as well as alcohol and sugar production, GEA has also become a valuable partner for the biofuels industry.

For bioethanol production, GEA offers key technologies and solutions covering all essential aspects of the core process, including raw material milling and mashing, liquefaction, saccharification, fermentation, distillation, dehydration, as well as decanters, dryers, and evaporators for separating and drying the DDGS, plus condensate recycle/polishing concepts for minimizing waste streams and saving process water.

Our biodiesel capabilities include the conversion of oils and fats to biodiesel as well as pre-treatment to purify crude feedstocks. GEA also has solutions for soap splitting via separation, methanol recovery, and water evaporation to isolate the glycerol for resale or reuse in plants.

Additionally, GEA has developed a new process for the pretreatment of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) that no longer requires bleaching, called GEA PRE2FUEL. This eliminates the need to purchase, handle, and dispose of bleaching earth and avoids oil losses in the spent material. Overall, the new process saves up to more than 50 percent of OPEX for HVO pretreatment. In addition, savings of 12 percent in CO2 emissions can be achieved.

EWABA is a Brussels-based association representing the interests of the European waste-based and advanced biofuels industry before EU institutions, national governments, industry, civil society and the media. We promote the inclusion of waste-based and advanced biofuels in the EU fuel mix as a sustainable means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in EU transport. Our +45 members active in most EU Member States collect and use waste and advanced feedstocks listed in parts A and B of Annex IX of the Renewable Energy Directive (REDII) to produce sustainable biodiesel with the highest GHG savings (up to +90%) when compared with fossil fuels, thus enabling “near-term decarbonization” of the EU road and maritime transport sectors.
