Years of Experience in Sugar Heating Applications

Solex has been involved in sugar heating applications world-wide for more than 20 years, and has a team of experts capable of handling the most difficult heat exchange challenges. View a list of some of the sugar companies Solex has served around the world.

Benefits of the Solex Technology for Heating Sugar Cane

Solex indirect plate heat exchange technology provides slow and controlled movement of sugar crystals through the cooler, preventing abrasion and degradation and ensuring sugar crystals are not changed in the heating process. Heating water temperatures are controlled, enabling sugar to be cooled to specific temperatures to allow for constant storing or packing temperatures year-round.

Ideal for Debottlenecking and Capacity Increases

Solex heating technology can cool large volumes of sugar with a small installation footprint. Existing drum coolers can easily be converted to second stage dryers and the compact Solex cooler can be installed downstream as the primary sugar cooler.
