Mr. Anis Somani is the Director of Business Development at Sunwell Technologies Ltd – a Toronto based global leader in ice slurry technology. Mr. Somani has a degree in Chemical Engineering and Business Management with over 25 years of diverse industrial experience.
Today he will share with us some of the applications of the patented DeepChill process. As cold chain in the food preservation – especially fish, poultry and produce is critical, Sunwell Technologies works closely with the Industries to help achieve better results. His discussion will focus on the successful use of DeepChill for mussel preservation”

Abstract:

Title: OPTIMIZING MUSSEL PRESERVATION USING DEEPCHILL – AN ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGY

After fifteen years of research & development Sunwell Technologies of Toronto, Canada has created a powerful cooling medium commercially known as “DeepChill™ Variable-State Ice”. DeepChill has been recognized as the most advanced and effective means of product cooling available for food product processing and storage applications. It is comprised of billions of ice “micro-crystals” suspended in a liquid solution. These ice crystals are typically between 0.1 and 1 mm in diameter, have the flow characteristics of water and the cooling capacity of ice. It is an unparalleled cooling medium due to its high heat transfer surface when it contacts a product that is to be cooled. It can be utilized as a very liquid solution with a virtually undetectable ice concentration to a heavy “slush” containing a moderate ice content and ultimately even as a dry “crystal ice”.
This paper will present comparative test data on mussel preservation using DeepChill.
