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.

You won’t find the definition of a high-temperature bulk solids heat exchanger in any textbook. Yet the technology is finding its way into more industries. Which leads then to the obvious question: What are high-temperature heat exchangers? Or perhaps better put, how do they work?

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. 

A 'By the Numbers' look at what to expect from Solex Thermal Science at this year's virtual event, March 1-3 

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.

The ability to use hot bulk solids to generate electricity: many in the heat transfer world regard this concept as a modern-day lightning rod for industrial processes, particularly when the technologies involved have been around for decades.
