Innovative heat exchanger DYHEX

Van der Meijden, a leader in innovative process technologies, presents its latest technological breakthrough: DYHEX—a patented heat exchanger that delivers exceptional performance in energy efficiency, sustainability, and product quality.

DYHEX

DYHEX stands out through its unique patented design, featuring rotating tubes that enable a revolutionary approach to heat transfer. This design ensures maximum output with minimal energy input—resulting in substantial energy savings, improved product quality, and increased capacity.

Sustainable and efficient

Thanks to its innovative design, DYHEX offers multiple advantages in a single system:

• Highest efficiency – More recovered energy is reused, while less virgin energy is needed
• Increased capacity – Longer run times lead to higher production throughput
• Reduced product loss – A smaller system volume minimises start-up losses
• Improved product quality – Less shearing, lower thermal load, and shorter residence time in the system contribute to a better end product
• Fewer failures and easier maintenance – The system is built for robustness with fewer wear parts. Maintenance is simplified through the ‘Single Man Maintenance’ concept

First DYHEX-based steriliser commissioned at Globemilk

A key milestone was the successful commissioning of the first steriliser based on DYHEX technology at dairy producer Globemilk.

“The implementation of DYHEX has enabled us to sterilise more efficiently without compromising on taste or quality,” says Joost Bisseling, Head of Production at Globemilk. “We’re impressed by the consistent performance and ease of maintenance. This is a real game-changer for the dairy industry.”

Custom solution for alternative protein producer The Protein Brewery

DYHEX has also been successfully integrated into a client-specific system at The Protein Brewery (TPB), a producer of alternative proteins. The system was fully tailored to meet the unique composition and processing requirements of these novel ingredients.

Smaller footprint, higher profitability

With DYHEX, Van der Meijden reinforces its commitment to sustainable innovation. By combining technological progress with practical design, DYHEX directly contributes to reducing the ecological footprint of production processes—without compromising on performance.

A new industry benchmark

“DYHEX is the result of years of expertise and a strong focus on innovation within Van der Meijden,” says Kees van der Meijden, founder and director of Van der Meijden.

“In a traditional industry where innovation has been limited, we saw clear opportunities for improvement—and we’ve proven that with DYHEX. We believe this heat exchanger will set a new standard for producers looking to invest in both sustainability and efficiency.”

DYHEX is now available for a range of industrial applications. Interested parties can contact Van der Meijden Machines for a demo or further technical details.
