Exhaust gas recirculation and bilge water treatment system

Ensure compliance with environmental maritime regulations by integrating an advanced system that manages exhaust gas recirculation and bilge water treatment efficiently, reducing operational costs and pollutant discharge into the sea.

Purifies Bilge and EGR Wash Water

The GEA bilgEGR Solution from GEA is an innovative system designed to address the challenges of exhaust gas recirculation and bilge water treatment on marine vessels. This dual-purpose solution integrates seamlessly into marine operations, using a combined Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and oily bilge water system to treat and purify water before discharge. Its high-efficiency integrated direct drive minimizes energy consumption and operating costs, while its compact design ensures minimal space requirements in engine rooms. Capable of continuous, automated operation, this PLC-controlled system facilitates easy integration with existing setups and enables smart connectivity for enhanced operational oversight. The system’s design is robust, featuring corrosion-resistant materials and backed by DNV certification, ensuring compliance with stringent environmental regulations. Retrofitting existing bilge systems is straightforward, keeping maintenance hassle-free with easily exchangeable drive systems. This makes it a cost-effective and environmentally responsible solution for marine vessel operators, shipping companies, and marine engineering firms seeking reliable purification and discharge solutions.
