Jentzsch came to press and public relations through project management for an in-house customer magazine, which developed into a monthly newsletter.

LIX-shooter® - hygiene and economy have top priority

Linde at InterCool 2004

With the LIX-shooter®, Linde AG, Linde Gas division, offers a system for processing food that has a high hygiene standard and works particularly economically. It is a cryogenic soil entry system for liquid nitrogen or liquid carbon dioxide in mixers of various designs, kneaders, cookers, etc. The development was carried out in coordination with the high hygiene requirements of the EHEDG (European Hygiene Equipment Design Group). ##|n##Direct injection for gentle processing##|n##

In conventional cryogenic processing, the cryogenic refrigerants are applied to the product surface from above. However, this leads to unnecessary evaporation and a loss of cooling effect. The LIX-shooter® therefore injects the gas directly into the product mass and thus generates an immediate heat transfer with low gas consumption. Depending on the product and equipment, an efficiency of up to 98% can be achieved. The LIX-shooter® is particularly suitable for low-viscosity products and generally for mixed products. It can generally be used for fast cooling processes, for process acceleration in mechanical liquid coolers, for freezing down to the crystallization area or for emergency cooling in potentially explosive processes.

Aspiring master butchers travel into the organic future of their trade

Bio InVision Camp® with pioneering results

Mr. F. is a manager and compensates for the stress at work with sport and a diet that is precisely tailored to his needs. His most important advisor is master butcher T., who puts together a balanced menu and the appropriate ingredients for him every week. The raw materials come from regional organic farming and animals from the area, which are kept on extensive pastures in a species-appropriate manner. When he and his family don't have time to cook, they often go to "Schnellefrische", the organic fast-food outlet in the butcher's shop. Here you will find a wide range of healthy, wholesome dishes that are tailored to the nutritional needs of the customer.
