Freezing and Crystallization Processes
Freezing and Crystallization Processes is a research topic within Mechanics of Materials. Science Explorer counts 15k research works in it since 1950. 10.1% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers focuses on the application of freeze desalination and concentration techniques, including progressive freeze-concentration, eutectic freeze crystallization, and membrane distillation, for water treatment, wastewater management, and food processing. The use of LNG cold energy and scraped surface heat exchangers is explored to enhance the efficiency of these processes.
