Partial freezing of salmon fillets.

Summary

For fish transport, normal icing is 4-6 kilos of ice in fish boxes with 20-24 kilos of fish. This increases the transport cost, and the ice requires a certain volume in the boxes that otherwise could be used for the fish. The work is a theoretical survey of the possibility of using superchilling which is a partial freezing of the products as a replacement for the ice and in this way reduce the transport cost. Salmon fillets have been used as trial product in computer simulation and laboratory tests.
