Abstract
Apparatus and methods for thawing frozen items, such as frozen food, with water and air convection includes one or more compartments each equipped with a perforated thawing basket, a showerhead delivering a shower of temperature-controlled water onto frozen food in the perforated thawing basket, one or more fans configured to deliver a convective airflow over the frozen food, and a water wheel powered by water draining from the frozen food that is drivingly coupled with each fan. The compartments are hygienically sealed from one another so that water drained from each compartment does not cross-contaminate frozen food being thawed in other compartments.
