Added punctutation to this article and rephrased some redundant and/or nonsensical sentences. I hear periods are important to encyclopedias in this day and age. - Anonymous, 15:19 EST, 23 Sept. 2007.
Self-promotion edit war
Somebody keeps on trying to add a section about a particular trademark version of flash freezing called, "QuickFreeze". The only references are to a patent and the commercial site that promotes it. I searched and found no evidence that this process was noteworthy, hence I conclude it is self-promotion. The onus is on the person adding material to provide evidence of noteworthiness.

And you got rid of the buzzy "time to market" bit too. I'm satisfied.

Questions I hoped this article would answer
How long does it take to freeze something by flash-freezing?
What sort of dimensions of objects are flash-frozen?
How long before the centre is frozen?
When is flash-freezing advised and not advised?
I see in reference
[1] from 1930 that "flash" freezing a two-inch thickness of fish actually took 1.5 hours; it was "flash" compared to the previous time of ten hours. What's the numbers in 2015?

Page cleanup for tone and person
This article really needs a rewrite. Not only is the prose awkward and overly academic ("Now, it is shown how cold water can get before it absolutely must freeze: 48 degrees below zero Celsius.", "For the understanding of Flash freezing, various related quantities might be useful."), a good portion of the article is written in the incorrect person and reads like a bizarre textbook. I'd strongly recommend trimming the excessive academic background and normalizing the prose used throughout the article - some sections read like the rest of Wikipedia, but others feel more like an undergrad lecture given by a tenured professor. While this is a complex subject, Wikipedia is not a textbook or a white paper and its writing should reflect that in its ability to explain abstract concepts in an accessible manner.
