Press Release Summary:
Equipped with CO2 or liquid N2, CRYOLINE® CW (CRYOWAVE®) IQF freezer helps meet production requirements and improve product quality via use of rolling-wave action on conveyor belt that keeps seafood items separate as they are individually quick frozen. Automated chilling solutions generate CO2 snow on demand and deliver consistent temperatures across food, while SOLVOX® oxygenation systems for aquaculture help maintain fish health and maximize yield per growth cycle in fish farming.

Technology Advances for Individual Quick Freezing and Aquaculture
Visit Linde at Seafood Processing, Booth #2074
Murray Hill & New Providence, N.J., U.S. – At the 2016 Seafood Processing Expo, March 6-8 in Boston, Linde LLC will showcase advanced technology for aquaculture and a proprietary cryogenic solution for individually quick freezing (IQF) shrimp, scallops, mussels, clams, and other small seafood items that require high quality with high efficiency.
On display at booth #2074, the CRYOLINE® CW (CRYOWAVE®) IQF freezer uses a patented rolling-wave action on the conveyor belt to keep shrimp or other seafood items separate as they are individually quick frozen.
“This patented IQF technology is a major improvement over flighted freezers, and can mean a quantum upgrade in product quality and a reduction in operating costs.”
--Erik Fihlman, Program Manager Seafood Industry, Linde LLC
The CRYOWAVE freezer, which can be equipped with either carbon dioxide (CO2) or liquid nitrogen (N2), is part of a range of freezing and chilling solutions from Linde that can help seafood processors meet production requirements, improve product quality, reach new markets, and satisfy burgeoning demand for prepared food products.
Linde will also feature:
• Automated CO2 snow chilling solutions that generate CO2 snow on demand and can deliver more consistent temperatures across food than any manual ice chilling method. That consistency can translate into more repeatable operations, higher product quality and lower operating costs.
• SOLVOX® oxygenation systems for aquaculture that can help maintain fish health and maximize fish farming productivity with maximum yield per growth cycle. Linde customizes the technology for customers around the world and advances the technology through its Innovation Center for Aquaculture in Norway.
The Linde food team performs in-plant assessments to identify current cost-to-freeze or -chill and works with seafood processors to develop optimal process solutions. For more information, visit: www.lindefood.com, or call:Â 800-755-9277.Â
