To extend their ice plant facility the South-American shrimp producer, seduced by the technical features of the new Geneglace ice maker, opted for three of these units.<\/p>\n<p>Propesca was already well acquainted with the original Geneglace technology as it had already invested in F900 ice makers a few years before.<\/p>\n<p>The past experience brought a lot of trust in the technical design. It involves a helical reamer which harvests the ice formed on the surface of a stationary cylinder. This original design explains the low maintenance and the exceptional reliability of the machines.<\/p>\n<p>The quantity of ice needed to refrigerate the shrimp in a a tropical country like Venezuela is such that Propesca needed a significant plant extension. The ratio of ice to shrimp nears 1\/1.<\/p>\n<p>By using the F2000 larger surface heat-exchanger the company is expecting to significantly improve the energy efficiency of the amonia refrigeration system.<\/p>\n<p>The three units are currently in production and will be installed and commissioned in Maracaibo before the end of the year by the Maracaibo based refrigeration company INPROINCA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The South American shrimp producer will add three new Geneglace F2000 at their Maracaibo site (Venezuela).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-10465","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-processing-refrigeration"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10465","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10465"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10465\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10465"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10465"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10465"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldfishing.net\/icefish-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=10465"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
