With rising carbon dioxide (CO2) costs, the ChillZilla® Bulk CO2 Liquid Supply System offers the opportunity to reduce CO2 consumption for food freezing and dry ice systems, resulting in savings, according to the leading cryogenic equipment manufacturer.
The ChillZilla liquid supply system increases the refrigeration capacity of the liquid CO2 by as much as 24% over traditional bulk tanks and reduces deliveries at the bulk tank site, according to Chart statistics.
The bulk CO2 food freezing and ice production system, which comes in 30, 50-ton and 75-ton models, was developed because customers with liquid CO2 at a high saturation pressure were restricted in the yield of dry ice or snow. Chart saw the need to assist in providing savings to end-users by super-chilling the liquid CO2 before dispensing to atmosphere to increase dry ice yields. The small amount of electricity needed outweighed the cost of liquid CO2 in some areas of the US. The ChillZilla CO2 product was introduced first in 2011 and the liquid nitrogen followed in 2012.
