Abstract

Freeze concentration (FC) by suspension crystallization is a complex process due to the combination of a scraped-surface heat exchanger, crystallizer, and wash column. Following the study of a three-in-one structure of a multi-pass FC published earlier this year, modeling and experiments of the heat and mass transfer of this freeze concentrator are presented in this paper. The experimental assessment of the system performance, including the measured values of the heat transfer coefficient, ice production rate, and energy efficiency as well as their correlation with the concentration ratio and partition coefficient are presented in this article.
