Screw heat exchangers are widely used in the chemical, environmental and food industries and in recycling. Cooling, heating and\/or drying products using this controlled method and simultaneously transporting them, is an effective, low-noise, energy-efficient and dust-free solution.

What is a screw heat exchanger?<\/h2>\n

A thermal screw conveyor, or screw heat exchanger, is an indirect or direct heat exchanger based on a screw conveyor. The closed system consists of one or more screw shafts, double-walled casing and screws or a combination of these, with thermal fluid passing through them. The screw can also be double-walled in order to increase the heat exchange surface.<\/p>\n

What variants are there?<\/h2>\n

Screw heat exchangers are available in steel, stainless steel and in special materials such as super duplex. The diameter of the screw is variable, as are the pitch, the speed and much more. The length and diameter of the machine itself can be adjusted to the production process and the space available. The speed of the screw conveyor can be regulated. Water, water glycol, nitrogen and oil are the thermal liquids most commonly used inside a screw heat exchanger. A less commonly used but possible thermal medium, is steam The choices depend on the type of product, the environment, the process and other needs and requirements.<\/p>\n

Applications for a thermal screw conveyor<\/h2>\n

A screw heat exchanger can be used for many products and applications: from cooling sand to drying starch. A screw heat exchanger can be used as part of a process, can be coupled seamlessly to existing production lines and cooling water\/power supplies, and can also be used as a stand-alone application.<\/p>\n

The benefits of a screw heat exchanger<\/h2>\n

The combination of transporting and simultaneously cooling, heating, mixing and\/or drying products is one of the huge benefits of a screw heat exchanger. But there are more features which make this system so attractive:<\/p>\n
