Inproheat Industries Ltd. Direct Contact Liquid Heating Solutions SubCom®

SubCom®’s robust heat transfer capabilities has taken on the toughest operating conditions and set a new standard for direct contact liquid heating solutions. Low emissions burners, reduced maintenance costs, durable construction and short payback periods that lead to unparalleled efficiency approaching 100%. Liquid Heating Industry Focus The benefits of SubCom® in a liquid heating application make it the best direct contact heating method for challenging liquids and slurry streams. SubCom® also excels in the heating of dense slurries. With no fluid passages to plug with solids or heating surfaces to scale over, it is a heating technology that is intrinsically efficient. That efficiency is further optimized by the turbulent action of gas sparging, which keeps solids suspended in the liquid and increases overall heat transfer rate and efficiency. Mining The mining industry offers significant opportunities to demonstrate the power of SubCom® liquid heating solutions due to the breadth of projects available. Key mining applications for SubCom® include: Copper, gold and other heap leach lixiviants SX/EW solutions Mine waste water Brine solutions for potash, lithium and other salt process solutions Iron ore concentrate slurries for pelletizing process Calcium chloride and copper sulphate concentration Ore and concentrate slurries Agitated tank leach heating Reagent mixing water Utility water Natural Gas The continued growth of the natural gas industry has made the liquid heating technology offered by SubCom® a welcome and sought-after component within this sector. The most common SubCom® applications in natural gas are: Frack water heating LNG vaporization Produced water heating for water treatment Oil Sands SubCom® is highly-respected for its liquid heating efficiency for clients who are operating projects in the oil sands.
