Chemical & Dye Processing

Chemical and dye processors are increasingly finding a need for large quantities of ice in their chemical mixing and reaction processes. Ice has been used by many major chemical processing plants:

• to control the temperature of chemicals during reaction

• to add water to a process while cooling

• fast cooling to stop a timed reaction

For faster cooling, ice is preferred to traditional jacketed tanks or external heat exchangers. Adding ice to a solution subjects it to a much larger cooling surface area, lowering temperatures in less time and maintaining better control. Ice can be fed continuously or at specific times during batch processing.

Ice Features and Benefits

• Fragmented ice for reliable temperature control

• Quick release of BTU' s to the mixing process

• Variable ice thickness control for desired ice type

• Modular configurations to match capacity requirements
