In Episode 9 of The Exchange, we discuss the diverse southeast Asia market with Go Takagi of DJK Asia and Albert Bedell of Solex Thermal Science. 

Highlighting Solex's involvement in this year's technical presentations from the AOCS Processing Division, plus a sneak peak of Solex’s booth.

A closer look at the differences between indirect rotary drums and vertical moving bed heat exchangers, focusing on energy consumption, temperature control, operational flexibility and more.

Solex will be on hand at 2021 AFS Metalcasting Congress to showcase how proven, indirect plate technology can condition foundry sand more efficiently. Here are three takeaways attendees can expect after visiting Solex’s booth.

In Episode 8 of The Exchange, we discuss sustainability in the cocoa industry with Aldo Marino of the European Cocoa Association and Pedro Moran of Solex Thermal Science. 

In Episode 7 of The Exchange, we discuss ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) with Bill Whitelaw of Glacier Resource Innovation Group and Lowy Gunnewiek of Solex Thermal Science. 

Moving bed heat exchangers are found in a wide variety of applications where the primary function is to heat or cool free-flowing granular solids. We take a closer look at how they operate, including why a detailed understanding of bulk solid material properties and the uniform mass flow of solids is required to achieve effective and efficient heat transfer.

In the world of indirect heat exchangers, water, thermal oil and molten salts have traditionally shared the responsibility of heating or cooling free-flowing granular solids. Yet limitations with these three kings of the heat transfer is opening the door to the ground-breaking use of granular materials.
