Elevating Concrete Production Standards with COOLMATIC Liquid Nitrogen Cooling

Innovative Aggregate and Water Cooling Solutions for Superior Concrete Quality

In the realm of concrete production, precise temperature control is not merely beneficial – it’s imperative. Elevated temperatures can disrupt the curing process, resulting in compromised strength and durability. COOLMATIC Aggregate and Water Cooling, developed by Polarmatic, introduces an advanced solution that ensures superior concrete quality, even in the sweltering heat conditions.

The Critical Role of Temperature Control

Effective temperature management is crucial in concrete production, particularly in hot climate areas. High temperatures can accelerate the curing process, leading to reduced structural integrity. COOLMATIC addresses this issue by cooling the aggregates and water, thereby lowering the overall temperature of the concrete mix, and ensuring optimal performance and durability.

Advanced Cooling with Liquid Nitrogen

Polarmatic’s COOLMATIC system utilizes liquid nitrogen (LIN) to cool aggregates and water in concrete production, setting a new benchmark for efficiency and effectiveness. LIN’s exceptionally low temperature facilitates rapid cooling, essential for achieving the desired concrete mix temperature. This method is not only energy-efficient but also integrates seamlessly with existing Polarmatic heating systems, making it an ideal choice also for concrete production in variable weather conditions all year round. 

Distinguished Benefits of LIN Cooling

  • Elimination of Safety Hazards: The automated cooling process eliminates the need for employees to handle ice in concrete production, significantly improving employee safety.
  • Superior Concrete Quality: By reducing the concrete temperature through cooled aggregates and water, COOLMATIC ensures optimal curing conditions, resulting in stronger and more durable concrete.
  • Savings with Efficiency: The COOLMATIC system utilizes 50% less LIN compared to other methods, offering significant cost savings while delivering exceptional performance.
  • Instantaneous Water Cooling: In addition to aggregate cooling, COOLMATIC provides an efficient method for rapid water cooling, further perfecting the concrete mix.
  • Consistent Cooling: The cooling effect of LIN persists through the delivery of concrete, maintaining the desired temperature until the concrete is poured.
  • Enhanced Equipment Longevity: The COOLMATIC eliminates the wear and tear on equipment caused by thermal shocks, a common issue with alternative methods using LIN.
  • Seamless Integration: The system can be integrated with existing Polarmatic heating systems, even as a retrofit, providing flexibility and ease of use.
