Ethanol is admixed with a compressed vapor in an ice generator, and the mixture is then condensed by indirect heat exchange with a coolant in a chamber. The condensate is collected in a bottom chamber of the ice generator and then supplied to a scraper heat exchanger where primary ice crystals are generated. The ethanol is washed out of the ice crystal suspension in a counterflow washer and the pr...
