This technology not only has the advantages of the low temperature of ordinary ice but also combines the characteristics of hypochlorous acid water with rapid and broad-spectrum killing microorganisms and good fresh-keeping ability, and the hypochlorous acid water ice can be reduced entirely to non-toxic. It has the advantages of no ordinary residual water and no pollution to the environment after discharge and has broad application prospects to preserve aquatic products.
