Which chilling system?

[chemi-cool]

I am involved with building of new hatchery,

They will need about 100 TR water chiller for cooling the hatching cells and Ac.

I am thinking of manufacture the chiller myself.

There are a few cooling methods:

Falling film chiller
Shel & tube
Plate heat exchanger
Ice builder

what would you prefer and why?

[US Iceman]

Plate & frame (or brazed plates) to limit refrigerant charge.

An ice builder if you have On-Peak & Off-Peak electrical rates.

prefer plate heat exchanger if water average temp is 33 to 36 fahrenheit.we have done this before on poultry proccessing.

Hello Chemi,
No enough information:
type of water (sea or fresh?)
tem-re range
if the cleaning of the surface is needed
