GEA will present decanters for sludge treatment and the digital real-time monitoring system for wastewater treatment plants at the world’s leading trade fair for water, sewage, waste, and raw materials management (IFAT) taking place from 13th – 17th May, 2024. The GEA Intellicant® decanter centrifuges are validated with the company’s ‘Add Better’ eco-label for resource-saving solutions. GEA Intellicant® heralds a new digital era of efficiency in the sludge treatment process through monitoring, automation, and optimisation of decanters. All the technologies presented by GEA at IFAT 2024, also and especially in combination, ensure the sustainable and safe economic operation of municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants.
For all types of disposals, i.e. incineration, landfilling, and agricultural utilisation, the optimal economic dewatering of sewage sludge is a key step. In practice, this means that less sewage sludge to dispose of saves on transportation costs, reduces energy consumption for disposal and incineration, and cuts CO₂ emissions.
The GEA environmental Decanters are continuously operating centrifuges with a horizontal solid bowl, specially developed wastewater and sludge treatment in municipal and industrial sewage treatment plants and agriculture. GEA decanters ensure a high degree of dewatering with a considerably reduced sludge volume thanks to a high g-force for optimum separation efficiency and process-optimised torque control. The GEA environmental Decanter pro series is designed for ‘plug & play’ integration into standardised processes with little need for adaptation – with the best possible achievable performance as well as economical investment and life cycle costs. A high degree of standardisation ensures a fast delivery time. GEA environmental Decanter prime, on the other hand, can be flexibly configured for highly complex processes with individual requirements and large capacities. GEA decanters are also available as a skid, mobile, or retrofit solutions.
With the Add Better label, GEA decanters receive fact- and process-based recognition for even greater economy and efficiency compared to previous models. The Add Better label is validated by TÜV Rheinland and is based on a calculation and documentation process that complies with ISO 14021. The design of the pro series focuses on modularity, energy-efficient product handling, the efficient use of electric motors, and state-of-the-art gear technology.
