A Belgian producer of dyes and pigments was able to further automate its production processes. KTI’s solution for the production of flake ice has supported this. In particular, as ice conveying and distribution could be automated and connected to the central control system. Another highlight is the heatmer recovery. A Belgian manufacturer of pigments and dyes received a solution from us for the production, storage, and conveying of flake ice. In addition to the actual ice production, automation and energy efficiency were also important aspects in the selection of the KTI systems. A flake ice plant was installed, which, in addition to ammonia as the most efficient refrigerant, also has integrated heat recovery. As a result, the combined efficiency ratio (COP) is extremely high. The equipment heats water during ice production, which is used for cleaning in the production process. Likewise, a water pre-cooler was installed to bring the water to an optimal temperature for the actual ice production. In addition to an ice storage system, two pneumatic conveyors were also installed. These are equipped with compressed air coolers. The ice is thus dosed into the already cooler air via a rotary valve before it is then transported further to its destination. The entire unit is automated and integrated into our customers’ central control system. This has enabled the production processes to be optimized.
