What do the prototype.club innovation competitions have to do with climate protection?
If you are careful not to let the water run for too long at home, then you are pursuing exactly the same goal as our use case partner GEA – only they are doing it on a large scale. In industrial dairies, water is an essential ingredient, whether for cleaning equipment or processing milk. Nadine Sterley, Chief Sustainability Officer at GEA, also sees innovative sustainability technologies as a key growth driver:
This is exactly where the GEA Use Case at ANUGA Foodtec came in – How can water consumption in these processes be drastically reduced?
With the winning start-up OmegaLambdaTec, GEA is tackling the problem head-on. With the help of data-driven analyses, the start-up shows where water is wasted unnecessarily and how processes can be made more efficient – without compromising on quality.
Our competitions bring innovation to where it is really needed. In this way, we not only help to promote the economy, but also to protect our resources and promote climate protection.
