A low-cost system that opens up Freeze Concentration technology to new
markets through innovation, simplification and standardisation.
Freeze
Concentration has long been the preferred method of concentrating aqueous
solutions especially where they are heat sensitive. However, until now all
systems were individually designed making them too expensive for some common
applications.
Now, through a process of innovative engineering, process
simplification and component standardisation, the patented technology in
ICECON™ has reduced both equipment costs and energy usage significantly making
Freeze Concentration a practical option for the constantly growing number of
applications throughout the food and drink sector.
Typical applications
for ICECON™ include:
- coffee
- fruit juices
- clear extracts (vegetable, plant, meat, fish, etc.)
- vinegar
- beer & wine and
- practically any other aqueous solution
How is it done?
Niro-PT has kept the investment and energy costs of
ICECON™ low through:
- Simplified scraped surface heat exchangers
- Simplified crystallizer design
- Simplified wash column design
- Simplified instrumentation and control
- Minimized refrigerant requirements
- Standardization of components
- Refrigeration system integration
