VAU Evaporator sweeten your Christmas season
For decades, our Hybrid Tubular Falling Film Plate Evaporator has proven itself as a retrofit, especially in sugar factories. Compared to the classic tube bundle heat exchanger, our hybrid heat exchanger can achieve higher performance with a compact design, which reduces the use of material and lowers weight and manufacturing costs. We proudly announce that our evaporator retrofit with a heating area of 4,400 m² was successfully put into operation in a sugar factory in Baden-Württemberg in September 2023, just in time for the start of the campaign. The existing Robert evaporator was replaced by our much more efficient hybrid falling film plate evaporator with triple heating surface.

VAU Thermotech ensures good air around Swiss sugar factories
Air pollution control plays a very important role in Switzerland.
In order to further reduce NH3 emissions at the Swiss sugar factories in Aarberg and Frauenfeld, the carbonation vapors will each be cooled with a sophisticated fully welded hybrid tubular plate heat exchanger from VAU Thermotech in the near future.

VAU Thermotech: Co-designer of the energy turnaround
Hot water - or more precisely thermal water - plays a very important role for the operator of a geothermal power plant in Rhineland-Palatinate. As part of the GeoSmart Project funded by the European Union, "innovations to improve the flexibility and efficiency of geothermal heat and power supply systems" are to be investigated. VAU Thermotech is supplying four fully welded hybrid tubular plate heat exchangers for this purpose, which will be tested in running operation for functionality, durability and the possibility of complete cleaning.

VAU Thermotech on the road
Between March 13 and 17, 2023, we were delighted to present to numerous visitors from Germany, Europe and the rest of the world our new VAU COMPEX, a fully welded hybrid tubular plate heat exchanger. Traditionally, the ISH was immediately followed by the new product shows of Großhandels Contor GmbH (GC Group). In Munich, Cologne, Stutgart, Bremen and finally Berlin we presented selected products to an exclusive trade audience. We took the opportunity to get the latest industry news and to talk shop with the booth visitors.

VAU ready for take-off – Parts production for the aircraft industry
Traditionally, high quality is part of VAU Thermotech's corporate DNA. For years we have been certified for the aviation industry. Therefore, we were again commissioned to manufacture so-called domes - i.e. upper and lower parts for the waste water tanks of the Airbus A330. The domes are manufactured in a complex deep-drawing process in several production steps and finally subjected to a special quality check. Specially manufac-tured shipping crates are required for shipping, so that the packed domes can be safely delivered. So, next time you wash your hands on the plane and the water goes down the drain, think of us.
