Industrial washcolumn type W60
Freeze concentration has been practiced for centuries. GEA Messo PT has installed modern industrial plant worldwide for various products.
Modern freeze concentration processes consist of a crystallization section where part of the water is converted into solid ice crystals using a refrigeration system. The ice crystals are then separated by using the Niro PT technology - wash columns. This patented technology is a specific form of suspension melt crystallization and has made freeze concentration economically feasible for a wide range of applications.
The key aspect of this Niro PT freeze concentration technology is maximum retention of the product quality.
The details of the freeze concentration technology can be found in the chapters “technologies” and “document library” and “products”

Ice Beer technology
Ice Beer processing is done using the NIRO SLUSH FREEZER SYSTEM which originates from our Freeze Concentration Process. This process uses the same technology without the wash column for separating the ice. The application on Ice Beer is an example of a successful commercial application of this proven technology. Along with the marketing aspects, low temperature stabilization is an additional technological advantage that applies for other applications as well.
