Type of article: Article

Summary

The authors describe technologies to produce binary ice, capacity range of binary ice makers and applications: supermarket applications (chiller and freezer cabinets, cold stores); load shifting and load shaving; retrofitting existing refrigeration systems; quick cooling of fluids such as milk, juice, oil, etc.; separation and concentration of solutions and mixtures, desalination; immersion cooling of fish, shrimps, fruit, vegetables and packed food; microcooling - cooling of micro-devices in research and development; district cooling; and ask when is a binary ice installation "nonsense"? They state that the most novel technology for the generation of binary ice is the water vapour compression and the use of "water as refrigerant".
