Heating Bulk Solids Using Steam, Hot Water or Thermal Oil
Bulk solids pass slowly downward between a series of vertical hollow heat exchanger plates.
Heat transfer media, such as steam, hot water, or thermal oil, flow through the plates to heat the bulk solids material by conduction.
The mass flow discharge feeder creates uniform product velocity through the heater and regulates the product flow rate.
Hot bulk solids pass through the vertical heater by gravity.

The Benefits are Here Today.
The advanced Solex heating technology, engineered specifically for use with bulk solids, produces a superior final product, uses up to 90% less energy than other technologies, eliminates the production of air emissions and dust, and solves a host of other issues commonly experienced in the process of cooling, heating and drying bulk solids.
Guaranteed Thermal Performance
Solex uses its proprietary thermal modeling software, ThermaPro, to accurately predict product temperature profiles of the bulk solid material at each point through the bulk solids heating process. The result is guaranteed thermal performance.
Green Technology for Cooling Bulk Solids
The Solex indirect heat exchanger technology makes it possible to heat bulk solids using recovered energy from elsewhere in your facility.
