Cooling Bulk Solids Using Water - Products up to 400°C
Slow and Controlled Product Flow
Bulk solids pass slowly downward between a series of vertical hollow heat exchanger plates.
Indirect Plate Cooling
Cooling water flows through the plates cooling the bulk solids by conduction.
Mass Flow Technology
The mass flow discharge feeder creates uniform product velocity through the cooler and regulates the product flow rate.
Vertical Configuration
Bulk solids pass through the vertical cooler by gravity.
Uses Up To 90% Less Energy
The Solex bulk solids cooler is ultra-efficient, using up to 90% less energy than other technologies.
ZERO Emission, Dust, Fines, or Ordors
The indirect plate cooling design means air is not in contact with the product during the cooling process.
Reduced Installation Costs
The indirect plate cooling design means air is not used in the cooling process.
Energy Recovery Possibilities with Indirect Plate Cooling Technology
The Solex indirect plate cooling technology makes it possible to capture and use the heat from the bulk solids cooling process. The unique design of the Solex heat exchanger uses water to cool the bulk solids by conduction. During the cooling process, the heat from the high temperature bulk solids is transferred to the water, producing high-grade heat in the form of pressurized hot water, which can be flashed to and made available as an energy source for other processes in your facility.
