Why is Bubble Slurry™ Ice stored “special” storage tank, and why does it have a “special” mixer?
Since Bubble Slurry™ Ice mix consists of ice crystals, water (H2O), and air or gas (CO2 or O3), homogeneity is required to maintain the right concentration in the whole volume of the storage tank. Therefore Crytec has designed special tank systems that function automatically in conjunction with its Bubble Slurry™ Ice machines to obtain and maintain a homogenous Bubble Slurry™ Ice mix at preset temperatures, concentrations and amounts. The special storage and mixing tank system consists of an insulated tank with a specially designed Bubble Slurry™ Ice-water separator and a mixing engine that rotates specially designed blades to ensure the homogeneity of the Bubble Slurry™ Ice mix. The fully automatic operation (water filling, Bubble Slurry™ Icemaking, mixing, pumping, and changes in ice fractions and temperatures) is controlled by a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). If “all” water is drained from a Bubble Slurry™ Ice mix, an ice concentration of 70% to 90% can be attained; because of
