Customer requirement

Illas Juli used liquid nitrogen for the ultra-freezing of its products, which required a constant gas supply and generated CO₂ emissions associated with transport.

Solution proposed by GasN2

Implementation of a CT15 refrigeration plant capable of reaching cryogenic temperatures to ensure maximum performance in ultra-freezing processes, together with a 12 × 2.5 meter dynamic freezing tunnel.

Benefits of the solution

  • High energy efficiency

  • High productivity with controlled and efficient consumption.

  • More environmentally friendly natural refrigerants

  • Use of refrigerants with a GWP close to 0.

  • Reduced refrigerant charge

  • Minimum required charge in the refrigeration plant.

  • Comprehensive alarm management

  • Industry 4.0 technology for alarm management and control.

  • Modular systems

  • Modular configurations based on customer needs.

  • Leak detector and safety systems

  • Advanced leak detection systems.

  • Comprehensive system operation control platform

  • Industry 4.0 technology for operation management and control.

  • Remote control

  • Remote control and operation of the equipment.

  • Data traceability

  • All information about the equipment’s performance is tracked and documented.

Results

  • Cost savings: freezing cost reduction between 30% and 50%, depending on the product.

  • 33% reduction in carbon emissions.

  • Increased production capacity up to 1,200 kg/h, doubling previous productivity.

  • Greater autonomy and reliability: reduced dependence on external suppliers, improving the company’s sustainability and operational strength.

  • Optimal preservation of organoleptic qualities through a mechanical refrigeration system without consumables.
