LYOVAC ECO Mode

LYOVAC ECO Mode
Product Description

LYOVAC ECO Mode: a solution for tomorrow
With a focus on saving both energy and media, GEA’s new LYOVAC® ECO Mode combines dynamic condenser temperature control and mushroom (chamber/condenser) valve regulation to optimize the lyophilization process.

Our new algorithm changes the set point of both the fluid condenser temperature and the position of the mushroom valve during drying. What this means is that there’s no longer an actual fixed temperature for the condenser ... but it’s optimally matched to the ongoing process and no colder than absolutely necessary.” In addition, the mushroom valve opening position can optionally be used as an extra control mechanism ... as well as the nitrogen inflow rate. This allows the freeze dryer to reach the same chamber pressure, but with warmer condenser coils. As such, less nitrogen is needed to control the pressure. The system can also be augmented with a virtual sublimation sensor if required

    News Uniting innovation and sustainability in pharma

    GEA directs its focus toward the juncture of sustainability and innovation, igniting positive transformation across our organization and the expansive pharmaceutical sector. 

    Sustainability in pharmaceuticals encompasses layers of significance. Central to this is drug manufacturing, which carries substantial environmental implications, spanning resource usage, waste generation, and emissions entailed in production, packaging, and distribution. The collective adoption of eco-conscious practices within the life sciences sector serves as a collaborative effort to confront challenges such as pollution, climate change, and the depletion of vital resources.

    Embedded in this landscape is the critical challenge of resource conservation. Given the extensive raw materials, energy, and water consumed by pharmaceutical processes, the adoption of sustainable practices to curtail the use of invaluable natural resources ...
