Summary
The wet air cooling technique uses wet air coolers to maintain maximum humidity; an ice thermal storage system provides chilled water and meets load variations; the distribution of air under pressure ensures quick and uniform cooling of the product. This technique has improved and is very suitable, both technically and economically, for the rapid cooling of fruit, vegetables or flowers.
