An ice storage facility is a facility specifically designed to store ice or refrigerant to provide refrigeration when needed. They are often An ice storage facility is a facility specifically designed to store ice or refrigerant to provide refrigeration when needed. They are often used in places that require large amounts of refrigeration, such as food processing plants, medical facilities, supermarkets, catering industries, etc. The following are some basic features and working principles of ice storage: Refrigeration principle: The basic principle of ice storage is to store cold energy in the ice storage by cooling the refrigerant (such as chilled water or specific chemicals) to extremely low temperatures. When cooling is required, the ice storage releases the stored cold energy to lower the temperature of the surrounding environment. Features: Refrigeration energy storage: The main function of the ice storage is to cool the refrigera […]

In the hot summer, cold drinks have become the best choice for people to cool off. In milk tea shops, coffee shops and other beverage shops, the cube ice machine has become an important equipment, bringing people cool and refreshing drinks. Next, I will give you an in-depth understanding of this refrigeration equipment from the structure, principle, characteristics and application of cube ice machine.   First of all, cube ice machines are commercial ice machines. In addition to cube ice machines, other commercial ice machines include snowflake machines, shaving ice machines, bullet ice machines, lunar-shaped ice machines, spherical ice machines, and milk ice machines. Commercial cube ice machines are basically integrated, including compressors, condensing fans, microcomputer PC boards, etc.   Next, let’s take a look at the principle of the cube ice machine. In order to facilitate everyone’s understanding, we divide […]

  Choosing cold storage depends on your specific needs and requirements. Here are some factors to consider when selecting cold storage: Temperature Range: Determine the temperature range you require for your products. Cold storage facilities offer different temperature zones, such as refrigerated (2-8°C), chilled (8-15°C), or frozen (-18°C and below). Ensure that the storage provider can maintain the desired temperature consistently. Capacity: Assess the amount of storage space you need. Consider both the current and future storage requirements of your products. Choose a facility that can accommodate your inventory volume and offers scalability options if your needs expand. Location: Consider the proximity of the cold storage facility to your business operations or distribution network. A convenient location can help reduce transportation costs and improve logistical efficiency. Also, assess the accessibility and transportation inf […]

Persistence Market Research Released New Market Report on “Commercial Refrigeration Equipment Market – Global Industry Analysis and Forecast to 2020” in the category “Consumer Goods”. Introduction of commercial refrigeration equipment First of all, what is commercial refrigeration equipment? What’s the purpose of them? Refrigeration is a process of moving heat from one location to another. Refrigeration process consists of various application including household refrigerators, industrial freezers, cryogenics, and air conditioning. Refrigeration equipments are made up of four key components: evaporator, condenser, compressor and throttle valve. All the four components unites together to complete the refrigeration process. Commercial refrigeration equipments (CRE) are majorly used for refrigeration processes in food and beverage industry. Commercial refrigeration equipments are used for food storage and merchandising pur […]

Ammonia is one of the most efficient applications out there, with the application range from high to low temperatures. With the ever increasing focus on energy consumption, ammonia systems are a safe and sustainable choice for the future. Typically a flooded ammonia system would be 15-20 % more efficient than a  R404A counterpart. The Ammonia System Helps Michigan Tech Reduce Carbon Footprint Michigan Tech’s new ice-making system at the John J. MacInnes Student Ice Arena can make both ice and heat and reduce MichiganTechnologicalUniversity’s carbon footprint while doing so. The ammonia brine-based system not only makes ice for the hockey rink, it heats the rink’s sub-floor, preventing frost from forming under the insulated concrete slab. Heat generated as the ammonia is compressed to be used as a refrigerant heats 100 percent of the hot water used in the arena and maintains a comfortable water temperature for the nearby swimming pool an […]

Thanks to recent breakthroughs, the insides of our refrigerators could work very differently in the coming years. Scientists at GE are perfecting a method of transferring heat that uses magnets to achieve temperatures cold enough to freeze water. The method is based off the magnetocaloric effect, which originated in the 1880s when German physicist Emil Warburg observed that certain metals have special properties in the presence of a magnetic field. In this case, metal alloys that become hot in the presence of a magnet and cold when removed are used to create a heat pump. This pump then moves heat from the colder environment of a refrigerator to a warmer environment, like your kitchen. This is similar to current refrigeration technology that uses a compressor to move heat, but using magnets could make refrigeration 20 percent more energy efficient. In GE’s prototype a thin tube of metal alloys, which allows the liquid that removes […]

R-22 Is Really Going Away! “R-22 is really going away”, and it is going to be a big issue for HVAC contractors.  R-22 has been the refrigerant since 1938. R-22 is still in virtually every building in the United States, an estimated 25 million systems. The R-22 phase-out has been in effect for more than 15 years, BUT very few HVAC contractors have done anything to prep for R-22 to disappear. In 2010 the production of HCFC R-22 dropped radically and production of new equipment with R-22 contained in the unit was prohibited. Life went on with R-410 and a good supply of R-22. Following the guidelines of the Montreal Protocol each year has had limited production and importation of R-22. Indecision by the EPA has caused ups and downs in the supply of R-22 which caused parallel price ups and downs in the price of R-22. The price of R-22 jumped 275% in 2012 in just a few months, and did just the opposite with a 50% drop in mid 2013. Future of R […]
