Ice slurry made from an antifreeze protein solution for ice storage applications.

Summary

The influence of antifreeze proteins on the growth of ice crystals has been investigated for the purpose of utilizing the resulting flowable ice slurry in cold-heat storage applications. Important parameters like storage ability and flowability have been experimentally studied for various concentrations of the protein in the water solution. In the temperature range down to -1 deg C, most of the latent heat is accumulated in the crystal slurry, indicating that the temperature of the flowable ice slurry should be from this value and above. Such a temperature dependency description is given in the paper.
