Slurry ice is a phase changing refrigerant made up of millions of ice “micro-crystals” (typically 0.1 to 1 mm in diameter) formed and suspended within a solution of water and a freezing point depressant. Some compounds used in the field are salt, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, alcohols like isobutyl and ethanol, and sugars like sucrose and glucose. Slurry ice has greater heat absorption compared to single phase refrigerants like brine, because the melting enthalpy (latent heat) of the ice is also used.
The small ice particle size results in greater heat transfer area than other types of ice for a given weight. It can be packed inside a container as dense as 700 kg/m3, the highest ice-packing factor among all usable industrial ice.
The spherical crystals have good flow properties, making them easy to distribute through conventional pumps and piping and over product in direct contact chilling applications, allowing them to flow into crevices and provide greater surface contact and faster cooling than other traditional forms of ice (flake, block, shell, etc.).
I got a call from you, and I’m all right.
I just wanna go outside and ride my bike.
If I’m not at your house in twenty seconds flat,
there’s something wrong.
You know there’s something wrong.
Forgive me if my tenses aren’t right.
I’m fighting time instead of watching it go by.
The walk to our bus stop got longer every day.
You’re late for school.
I’ll never get to you.
I’ll never get to you.
We rode home, and we took the long way back.
What is a bad day for you my friend?
Yeah.
We rode home and we took the long way back.
We were killing time, and no one seemed to mind.
Didn’t take much to get me out of bed.
In the morning when I woke up I’d be in
my basement listening to High/Low every day before the sun.
And I’m good with everyone.

What is a bad day for you my friend?
Yeah.
We rode home and we took the long way back.
We were killing time,
and no one seemed to mind.
No one seemed to mind
that we were killing…
We would always say
we’d never end up this way.
Sorry I can’t remember now.
We used to come this way a lot.
Yeah, more often than not.
Sorry I can’t remember now.
Sorry I…
