Claro designs & manufactures proprietary ModuTube™ modular tube-in-shell heat exchangers that are simple to install & disassemble, deliver maximum heating & cooling transfer efficiencies, & require no maintenance attention. Consistent & large throughput diameters prevent clogging even with poorly screened sludges & other process liquids. Design principles & custom sizings for your application yield heat exchangers that are self-cleaning – no requirement to open the unit to clean heat transfer surfaces.

Applications include a wide variety of municipal & industrial uses including: digester sludge heating, heat/energy recovery from incinerators & industrial processes, the heating & cooling requirements of biosolids renewable fuel processes, pulp & paper, food processing, & other contexts.

Our patented modular design enables standard & precise custom capacities and easy capacity expansion to meet future requirements. Ask us how we can provide near-zero footprint heat exchangers and install our units in difficult-to-access areas without the destruction of any plant infrastructure. Retrofits match to existing piping & number of circuits. All sizes & footprints are guaranteed delivery within exceptionally short delivery times.

Recover up to 85% of outgoing heat energy from process tanks such as anaerobic digesters with Claro heat exchangers. Immediate energy cost-savings & very quick pay-back periods.
