Bulk Solids Handling & Thermal Conditioning

Indirect cooling and heating systems for powders, granules, flakes, crystals, pellets, and other dry bulk solids.

Indirect Exchange Low Dust Compact Footprint Continuous Solids
Technical Overview

Bulk solids often need controlled cooling or heating before packing, storage, conveying, or downstream processing without adding water or exposing the product to direct air streams.

Calvion bulk solid heat exchangers use indirect heat transfer surfaces to condition powders and granules with minimal product degradation and lower dust movement.

Systems are configured around particle size, flowability, residence time, allowable product temperature, cleaning access, and plant layout.

ApplicationsPowders, pellets, crystals, flakes, minerals, food ingredients, and chemicals
MaterialsSS 304, SS 316L, or product-specific contact materials
MediaCooling water, chilled water, glycol, hot water, steam, or thermal oil
OperationContinuous gravity flow, batch conditioning, or controlled discharge
Design FocusResidence time, bridging risk, abrasion, erosion, cleaning access and product quality
SupportThermal sizing, mechanical design and fabrication

Why Calvion for Bulk Solids Handling & Thermal Conditioning

01

Process-Specific Engineering

Thermal surfaces, flow paths, metallurgy, and controls are selected around the operating duty rather than forced into a standard catalogue package.

02

Compact Heat Transfer Area

Laser-welded pillow plate geometry provides high surface area in a compact footprint, helping teams add capacity where plant space is limited.

03

Lower Operating Load

Efficient temperature control reduces unnecessary compressor, pump, steam, and utility demand across repeated production cycles.

04

Cleanable Construction

Stainless steel surfaces, accessible layouts, and smooth plate profiles support hygienic operation and planned maintenance routines.

05

Retrofit Friendly

External jackets, clamp-on panels, immersion banks, and modular skids can be matched to existing tanks and utilities.

06

Built for Sites

Systems are engineered for utilities, service access, ambient conditions, and long operating life in industrial environments.

Condition a Bulk Solid Stream

Share product type, particle size, flow rate, bulk density, inlet and outlet temperatures, and layout constraints. Calvion will size the exchanger.
