FrostWave

The project with acronym FrostWave concerns the development of a novel microwave assisted freeze drying device. The working medium in the cooling/freezing system of the freeze-dryer is a natural working fluid. Selected types of food of agricultural and sea origin are freeze-dried. The project is carried out by consortium formed by the Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice, the Gliwice company FrostX, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim and the SINTEF research institute in Trondheim. The project is financed by the National Center for Research and Development (NCBiR) in the framework of the POLNOR project. People interested in the freeze-drying process can use this portal to perform a computer simulation of selected stages of the process
