Freeze concentration system for liquid food products
Preserving flavors and health-promoting ingredients in liquid food products during concentration can be challenging. Traditional methods often lead to loss of volatiles and degradation of quality. A solution is needed to concentrate without compromising product integrity.
Achieve high-quality concentration with freeze technology
The IceCon® by GEA is an advanced freeze concentration system designed for liquid food products. It simplifies the freeze concentration process with fewer parts and a smart combination of functions, ensuring maximum quality retention. The process involves separating ice crystals from the liquid at their freezing point, thus preserving volatile and health-promoting ingredients. The IceCon® eliminates thermal degradation and oxidation, maintaining the original characteristics of the product. GEA’s unique solid-liquid separation technique allows for continuous and stable operation, making it ideal for modern processing plants. With capacities ranging from 10 to 10,000 kg/h, it is customizable to various production needs.
