Overview
Bio-deactivation, microbial or enzyme deactivation, is critical in chemical production, where microbial contamination can compromise product quality and safety. Maintaining controlled and sterile environments is essential in applications ranging from pharmaceuticals to specialty chemicals.
Direct Steam Injection (DSI) heaters offer reliable, efficient heating for bio-deactivation, bringing precise temperature control and on-demand heating to ensure effective deactivation of unwanted microorganisms or enzymes:
- Delivers on-demand heating by injecting steam directly, quickly achieving temperatures for effective bio-deactivation while ensuring precise temperature control to maintain stable temperatures for reliable microbial deactivation, all without compromising product quality.
- Maximizes energy efficiency with direct heat transfer, reducing fuel consumption and cutting operational costs in high-volume bio-deactivation processes
- Reduces contamination risks by eliminating intermediary surfaces, providing a cleaner, hygienic heating solution that supports microbial control standards
- Minimizes maintenance needs by preventing fouling and scaling, reducing downtime, and maintaining efficient, uninterrupted bio-deactivation operations
- Enhances safety with fast, accurate temperature adjustments, minimizing risks of thermal shocks or overheating and ensuring safe, controlled processes
- Integrates easily with a compact design, saving floor space and simplifying installation in facilities with limited room for equipment
- Supports sustainability with high thermal efficiency and reduced water use, helping facilities lower their carbon footprint and meet eco-friendly goals
Hydroheater®
Also known as the Jetcooker™, our Hydroheater® has the longest proven history of heating and processing a complex range of liquids and materials. Known for its adjustability, durability, and power, the near century of engineering and innovation behind the design of this workhorse speaks for itself.
- Volume capability: 1 up to 6,700 gpm [0.2 up to 1,522 m³/hr]
NOH™ (Non-Obstructing Heater)
The Non-Obstructing Heater is rugged enough to handle even the toughest abrasive materials, like sand and grit, to fibrous materials and large particulates.
- Its non-obstructive design protects against plugging, fouling, and pressure drop with its powerful, unrestricted flow.
- Volume capability: 30 up to 3,035 gpm [6.8 up to 689 m³/hr]
Solaris®
Perfect for viscous slurries, the Solaris® heater features an optimized straight-through design and low shear flow perfect for heavy slurries with medium consistency or higher solid contents. The flow diffuser injects steam across the entire cross-section to ensure thorough mixing and a uniform temperature profile even at a high volume and flow rate.
- Volume capability: 5 up to 25,000 gpm [1 up to 5,678 m³/hr]
