IFAT, Munich: Invitation to the Press Conference “Smart Automation for Lower Costs”
Dear Sir or Madam,
With GEA OptiPartner Intellicant, GEA has taken a major step forward in the digitalization of sewage sludge dewatering.
GEA Intellicant is an intelligent system that monitors decanters used for sewage sludge dewatering and automatically optimizes them based on the collected data—in real time and continuously. This system ensures that the decanter is automatically operated at its optimal operating point at all times. As a result, wastewater treatment plant operators benefit from higher dry matter values, more efficient polymer usage, reduced manual effort, and high process reliability—combined with significant savings in operation, transport, and disposal.
We cordially invite you to a press conference during IFAT.
Location: IFAT, Messe München
GEA booth, Hall A1, Booth 451.
Date: Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 1:00 PM
