Abstract

See full text

A method and associated equipment for obtaining a product in the form of deep-frozen, dissolved-gas-rich granules, particles or beads from a liquid, semi-liquid or pasty matrix, comprises the following steps: gasification of the matrix by incorporating a gas; dispensing the matrix in the form of drops; and cryogenically freezing the matrix drops by immersion in a cryogenic fluid. The step of gasification of the matrix involves dissolving a large amount of the gas generated by the evaporation of the cryogenic fluid in the drops by increasing the number of gas molecules in a high gas density zone, called high molecular density zone, located above the surface of the cryogenic fluid and on the path of the matrix drops before they are immersed in the fluid.
