- High heat transfer coefficient (approx. 4 times better than that of an empty pipe)
- High degree of plug flow
- Gentle treatment due to short residence time
- Narrow residence time distribution
- Quick change from one product grade to another
- Self-cleaning behavior

Monotube heat exchanger SMXL™
The SMXL™ monotube heat exchanger is the simplest version of a static mixer / heat exchanger. It can be used as a heat exchanger or reactor for applications requiring continuous mixing. The result is significantly increased heat transfer and a narrow residence time distribution.
Main applications
- For pilot units or small industrial plants for cooling, heating, and temperature-controlled reaction applications.
- The flow is usually laminar or the products to be handled are mostly of medium or high viscosity.
