The ice cubes produced every day can be covered with 6 basketball courts, and the supply of ice -making factories in Songjiang

The ice cubes produced every day can be covered with about 6 basketball courts. The high -temperature weather in the past few days has urged the ice market to "heat" the ice market. It is understood that with the ice season, it will last until the end of September.

Recently, the reporter walked into the ice room of Shanghai Fengda Bing Co., Ltd., and it was cold. The air conditioner continued to rush out from the ice pool, but the workers were sweating. They are quickly and orderly to send the newly produced ice cubes to send the track connecting the truck with a special non -slip hook, and the packing and transportation. Due to the continuous high temperature, the company's orders have surged, and it is now full load production.

"Our company's order volume this year is five or six times more than in previous years. Employees usually only take 8 hours of class. Now it is three shifts and constantly produce." Yu Ganghong, the person in charge of the company, told reporters. It is not used, because the ice cubes were immediately transported away, even if this still cannot meet the needs of the market. "

The reporter learned that Shanghai Fengda Bing Co., Ltd. produces 320 tons of ice cubes every day. what is this concept? A single ice cubes are 0.3 meters long and 0.9 meters wide. If you convert a standard basketball court 28 meters long and 15 meters wide, the ice cubes produced every day can be covered with about 6 basketball courts.

How is such a large amount of ice cubes produced? The principle is to use the characteristics of salt water solidification points lower than fresh water to cool the molds filled with freshwater to cooling in a salt tank of more than a dozen degrees of Celsius for 12 hours. After the cooling is completed, immerse the mold into the water at the normal temperature, so that the edge of the ice cubes melts and is separated from the iron. In this way, as long as the mold is tilted, the ice cubes will slide out by itself. These huge ice cubes can be used for four or five hours without direct sunlight. They are basically used in enterprises to produce workshops, fresh logistics transportation links, etc. In addition, the nucleic acid sampling point throughout the city is also the "big household" of ice demand.

It is necessary to remind the public that the main role of these ice cubes is physical cooling, not edible, please look at your own children, do not lick because of greed.
