New cooling mediums that would be safer to the ozone layer and would not increase the greenhouse effect are getting the most popular in the cooling technic. The paper presents the possibility of using ice slurry in indirect cooling systems. The ice slurry is a mixture of ice particles with dimensions up to 0.5 mm and a liquid that is mostly a pure water or water with addition of lowering the freezing point of the water. This mixture can be produced in different kind of the ice slurry generators. In the paper the most common types of the ice slurry generators were presented. The ice slurry is a new cooling medium which for example suits the processes requiring the preservation of a constant and equal temperature during the whole cooling process. Thanks to that, the ice slurry can find a wide potential application in the industry or in the materials engineering. The ice slurry was successfully implemented in the cooling systems used mostly in the food and petrochemical industry, in the air cooling systems of buildings and also in the cooling systems of mine’s. Advantages of a cooling the air with the ice slurry allows to reduce the operation costs by the reduction of a mass flow of the medium or pipe diameters for the required cooling capacity or allows to increase a cooling load at the existing distribution pipe diameter. A comparison to the standard chilled water system is showed in this paper too.
