Ice slurry generation based on a sugar-ethanol aqueous solution.

Author(s) : LEÓN M., RODRÍGUEZ R., MILÓN J. J., et al.

Summary

An experimental device was developed for the ice slurry generation with sugar-ethanol aqueous solution. Different concentrations were used for future application in freezing for conservation and transport. Temperatures varying with time were measured in the ice slurry generator. The temperature sensors were type K thermocouples, data acquisition is a multifunctional system with an acquisition interval of 1 second. The results indicate that the ice slurry generation depends on the sugar and ethanol concentrations. Ice slurry generation with sugar-ethanol aqueous solution can be applied to product cooling with low tolerance to ice slurry generated with high ethanol, sugar and sodium chloride concentrations.
