KLAREN BV employs a complete team of specialists which have been involved in the self-cleaning fluidized bed heat exchange technology for more than thirty years. In the early 70s, Dr. Dick Klaren, the inventor of the technology and President of KLAREN BV, filed the first patents related to the hydraulic stabilization of multi-parallel fluidized beds for multi-stage flash evaporation on natural (i.e. chemically untreated) seawater, soon to be followed by the design and operation of a number of full-size plants. Since that time numerous patents followed which expanded the application of the technology from seawater desalination plants into many other areas.
KLAREN BV is a highly innovative technology development company which markets and sells complete heat exchange installations world-wide. These installations can be either new or severely fouling existing installations revamped into a self-cleaning configuration. If necessary, KLAREN BV co-operates with the large international engineering companies to incorporate their self-cleaning heat exchange technology in all kinds of processing equipment, including complex heat recovery systems, chemical reactors, evaporators, reboilers and crystallizers.
KLAREN BV is not interested in the fabrication of their heat exchange installations and prefers to outsource the fabrication to competent manufacturing companies, which should also be acceptable to the actual end user of the equipment. Of course, KLAREN BV provides a full performance guarantee.
KLAREN BV also designs or provides complete test installations to investigate the self-cleaning performance of its heat exchange technology with respect to new applications.
KLAREN BV is represented in North America, Japan, Scandinavia, Australia and India by highly competent companies, which already successfully introduced the self-cleaning heat exchange technology in their territory.
KLAREN BV was founded in 2003 by its President Dr. Ir. Dick Klaren. Before Dr. Klaren started to work for KLAREN BV, he worked for Klarex Technology BV (1993 – 2003), Scheffers BV (1987 – 1993), Eskla BV (1984 – 1987), Esmil BV (1975 – 1985) and at the Technical University Delft (1968 – 1975). For all these companies and institutions he was fully involved with the self-cleaning heat exchange technology, which activities over the years shifted from very basic and innovative research, to application development, design and engineering, and world-wide marketing.
