Your Partner in Innovation
For more than 30 years, we've been the leaders in thermal science for the heat exchange of bulk solids, adapting and customizing our technologies for each of our customers' applications across a wide variety of industries.
With a Solex heat exchanger, you’re not just buying a product – you’re gaining a partner.
We’re there every step of the way – from engineering and development to installation, training and ongoing support, collaborating with you throughout the entire lifecycle of the product.
We have two units from Solex operating, one in Sebewaing and one in Croswell, and we’ve never had any issues with either of them. Both have been very low maintenance. If there was an opportunity, we would definitely work together again.
Azomures is very satisfied with all the Solex fertilizer cooling installations, in particular with the Primary and Secondary AN/CAN coolers which in tandem have brought about an important product quality improvement as well as an operational improvement, reducing dust emissions and lowering energy costs. We at Azomures view Solex as more than just a regular supplier and appreciate Solex’s expertise, passion and engagement in the field of fertilizer thermal processing.
We are very happy with the performance of the Solex. The process is very simple and we haven’t had any issues with cooling or bridging.
The Solex [salt] cooler was purchased in 1995. This cooler has been relocated 3 times in this time span. This unit has been so trouble free. When we decide to retire the unit, we will definitely approach Solex for the replacement unit.
We’ve been operating our Solex unit for a couple of years and are happy with the energy savings and heat recovery with our preheating, drying and conditioning of rapeseed. Solex was a reliable partner during the commissioning and start up phase, and continue to provide ongoing technical support today.
After more than 6 months of operation we’re confident we’ve found the best cooling solution that delivers increased savings and energy efficiency.
Of all the engineering packages I received for the project, Solex’s was the most complete and thorough.
The Solex heat exchanger has proven itself to be a great value-added system. It requires nearly zero maintenance, it delivers improvements in quality through the reduction of core scrap and rework of cores while reducing our process variation, which allows us to optimize our core making process.
We're in the business of doing the unprecedented.
Whether it’s a previously untested application, emerging field or innovative idea,
our expertise is in applying proven thermal science to challenging problems both known and new.
We’re trusted to innovate and proven to deliver.
We heat bulk solids up to 700°C using water, steam, air or thermal oil, with guaranteed thermal performance and the ability to use recovered energy from elsewhere in your facility.
Capable of cooling bulk solids at temperatures of up to 2,000°C using water or air, with virtually zero emissions and substantial opportunities for waste heat recovery and reuse.
An ultra-efficient means of drying or conditioning bulk solids while eliminating product loss and contamination and drastically reducing the energy required.
Our world-tested discharge feeders are tailored to different material flow properties, while providing maximum control and a guaranteed first-in-first-out flow sequence.
