Method and installation for continuous production of whipped ice from partly frozen foam

摘要

An installation for continuous production of whipped ice from a below zero crystallization temperature solution, including methods for delivering solution and gas through the evaporator (11); a closed refrigeration circuit (Rv)(R1) for the realization of cooling, and three-dimensional (volume) crystallization of ice within the gas solution flowing through the evaporator. These processes cause the formation within the evaporator unit(s) of partly frozen foam with ice nuclei, gas bubbles occupying a space, and a continuous phase consisting of concentrated unfrozen liquor.
