Heat exchanger and static mixer combined.


A static mixer A static mixer is a device for blending (mixing) two liquid materials. The device consists of mixer elements contained in a cylindrical (tube)or squared housing. The static mixer elements consist of a series of baffles that are made from metal or a variety of plastics.  is available in a range of diameters to provide heating or cooling along with mixing. Fluitec Georg AG in Neftenbach, Switzerland (no U.S. office), added shell-and-tube heat exchangers heat exchanger

Any of several devices that transfer heat from a hot to a cold fluid. In many engineering applications, one fluid needs to be heated and another cooled, a requirement economically accomplished by a heat exchanger.
 to its traditional CSE-X static mixer, but used larger tubes and more of them than is traditional in heat exchangers, so as to keep the length relatively short. The mixer/heat exchanger, or Fluitec CSE-XR, comes in diameters from 0.5 in. to 25 in. and can withstand up to 5000 psi PSI - Portable Scheme Interpreter  and 600 F temperatures. Since the CSE-XR was commercialized in 2001, it has been sold for foam cooling, reactive reactive /re·ac·tive/ (re-ak´tiv) characterized by reaction; readily responsive to a stimulus.
