Supermarkets
- Slurry ice can be used as secondary coolant for circulation to remote cases and coolers
Advantages:
- Reduced refrigerant charge with a close coupled system
- Ideal for retrofits because of reduced pipe diameters
- Distribution of slurry in plastic pipe
- Reduced utility bills when slurry is generated at night

Seafood
- Rapid cooling to lower temperatures
- Improved quality and appearance
- Longer shelf life
Meat
- Rapid cooling to lower temperatures
- Improved quality and appearance
- Longer shelf life
Juice Crystalization
- Single step cooling through direct product contact
- Formation of Ice fraction can be used for concentrating
- Transportation of juice in slurry form without mobile refrigeration
Generation of snow for recreational use
- Snow can be produced when ambient temperature is above freezing to extend the ski season
Thermal Energy Storage
- Slurry ice can be generated during lower ambient and off peak hours
- Slurry ice provides instant response to load fluctuations
- Slurry ice allows for lower pumping costs, smaller pipe diameters and duct sizes
- Cooling equipment package can be designed to run only at full load and peak efficiency, as necessary to meet cooling requirements
