Komax Static Mixer Jacketed Heat Exchanger
      for Municipal Sludge Heating
  Komax Systems Municipal Sludge Heat Exchangers utilize the Komax patented non-clogging Hi-Pass™ static mixer. The jacketed
  heat exchanger transfers heat from one media to another by utilizing hot water or hot sludge. The internal Hi-Pass™ mixing
  elements create high turbulence at the pipe wall, removing the internal film coefficient that prevents high heat transfer.

  Komax static mixers can increase heat
  transfer four to six times more than a      • Incorporates Komax patented Hi-Pass™ non-clogging static mixing elements
  straight-jacketed pipe heat exchanger.
                                              • Maintenance free due to the non-clog design
  Komax offers substantially lower costs
  and higher performance than spiral or       • Higher heat transfer performance
  shell and tube heat exchangers.
                                              • More efficient than spiral type heat exchangers
  Manufactured in carbon or stainless
                                              • Up to 4 times more efficient than conventional shell and tube exchangers

  • 2. Komax Static Mixer Jacketed Heat Exchanger for Municipal Sludge Heating Komax Systems Municipal Sludge Heat Exchangers utilize the Komax patented non-clogging Hi-Pass™ static mixer. The jacketed heat exchanger transfers heat from one media to another by utilizing hot water or hot sludge. The internal Hi-Pass™ mixing elements create high turbulence at the pipe wall, removing the internal film coefficient that prevents high heat transfer. Komax static mixers can increase heat transfer four to six times more than a • Incorporates Komax patented Hi-Pass™ non-clogging static mixing elements straight-jacketed pipe heat exchanger. • Maintenance free due to the non-clog design Komax offers substantially lower costs and higher performance than spiral or • Higher heat transfer performance shell and tube heat exchangers. • More efficient than spiral type heat exchangers Manufactured in carbon or stainless • Up to 4 times more efficient than conventional shell and tube exchangers steel, in horizontal or vertical mounting configurations, Komax Systems Municipal • Pre-heats sludge from sludge thickener to digester Sludge Heat Exchangers can heat sludge • Utilizes boiler hot water flow rates from 100 gpm to 10,000 gpm. • Recovers and uses heat from centrate/filtrate of Thermophilic digester sludge SLUDGE IN HOT WA IN HOT WATER OUT SLUDGE OUT
