ProSonix Direct Steam Injection heating for Boiler Feedwater Heating, Bioreactors, Fluid Bed Dryer Heating, Jacketed Reactor & Vessel, Jet Sparger, Reverse Osmosis, Steam Mixing Valve, Tank Car Cleaning, Tank Heating, Wastewater, Water Heating, & Filter Washing
Jacketed Reactor & Vessel Heating
Direct Steam Injection heating of hot water offers many important advantages over steam for jacketed reactor heating. Jacket reactor water temperature is precisely controlled, allowing water to surround the jacket at an even temperature, eliminating hot spots and the potential for product burn-on. Hot water versus steam also permits a smooth transition form heating to cooling, thus eliminating hammer and vibration and the potential for thermal shock and damage to welds and glass lining.
Energy Savings - Vent & Waste Steam Recovery
ProSonix J-Series Jet Sparger can be used to capture vent or waste steam that is typically released to atmosphere, and inject back into process water system or water tanks for energy savings.
Reverse Osmosis - R/O Water Heating
Proper water temperatures improve the efficiency of Reverse Osmosis for boiler room operations. Proper temperature control improves the water passage through the membrane for removal of minerals and impurities.
Tank Car Cleaning
ProSonix accurate temperature control and unlimited supply of hot water on demand makes tank car cleaning & sanitizing fast and easy. Ease of operation and maintenance and proven energy savings make ProSonix the perfect choice.
Filter Washing
Back-flushing filters and rinsing centrifuges at uncontrolled temperatures can waste water and energy and damage filter plates and frames. ProSonix precise temperature control provides the ideal solution for effective filter cleaning without danger of damage.
Wastewater Processing
The ProSonix direct steam injection heater provides accurate temperature control, eliminates problems with mineral scale build-up, and is well suited for aggressive fluid heating such as continuous flow treatment of wastewater in bioreactors and anaerobic digestion.
Fluid Bed Dryers & Blenders
ProSonix direct steam injection heaters are ideal for providing hot water for fluid bed dryers, bioreactors, and blenders. Hot water versus steam provides even temperature control, eliminating hot spots and overheating, and reduces thermal shock which can damage welds. Heat up is rapid and temperature can be controlled to within +1°C.
Boiler Feedwater Heating
ProSonix’ Direct Steam Injection heater is well suited to heating boiler feedwater. Accurate temperature control and a hot water delivery to the boiler reduces demand on the boiler. The self cleaning design eliminates problems with mineral and scale build-up reducing maintenance coasts.
Water Heating
ProSonix J-Series Jet Sparger can replace maintenance prone spargers, steam mixing valves, etc. and will heat water instantly and on demand to any desired temperature before it enters a batch process, reducing the cycle time and increasing productivity. Both inline water heaters and Jet Spargers available.
Tank Heating
Tank heating with spargers or eductors can lead to steam hammer problems which can damage tank walls and welds. Proper tank heating with a Jet Sparger utilizes high velocity steam for rapid mixing and condensation of the steam
