Concrete industry
The concrete industry around the globe makes use of Recom Ice factories. The quality of concrete for mega structures benefits from the use flake ice. The flake ice will help prevent excess temperature rise after the mixing process which can result in premature hardening of the concrete.

 

An important part of most modern concrete factories used to make super structures like dams is an ice plant. Large amounts of sub cooled dry flake ice are added to the concrete mixture. The large amount of thermal energy storage in the sub cooled flake ice dampens the temperature rise as a result of which, the time between mixing and pouring may be increased , thus offering more flexibility to overcome situations of long distance or high ambient temperatures.

Recom Ice Systems will help you co-engineer the complete ice factory. We can offer:
  • one or more ice plants up to 60 tons per 24 hours each , combined to a total maximum of 240 ton (4 x 60 tons)   
  • the ice storage up to a capacity of 200 tons
  • ice transport systems with capacities up to 30 tons per hour
  • ice weighing systems to accomodate the batching process
