Abstract
The agro-industrial complex facilities use water for various purposes. The volume of water consumed by them is large. With the total annual withdrawal of water as a resource from natural water bodies exceeding 60 km3of water, up to a quarter of ше goes to agro-industrial complexes. While these data are approximate, they allow calling agriculture one of the largest water consumers. An important parameter is water quality affected by the method of water treatment. The most promising method of water treatment is cryoconcentration, which involves the crystallization of moisture with subsequent displacement of the solid phase. The imperfection of this process and its mechanization hinder the implementation of this method into production. To increase the productivity of the cryoconcentration method during water treatment, a new design of a carousel-type apparatus with recuperation was developed. To reduce the capture of undesirable elements by the crystallizer and to determine the nature of the crystallization process on the working plates of the cryoconcentrator, a series of experiments was carried out to establish rational parameters of the process. This allowed the authors to develop a mechatronic cryoconcentration module for a carousel-type apparatus.
