Can a giant (2x 12hp compressors) walk-in freezer be converted into a smaller blast freezer?

I have a 1250sqft walk-in freezer that's 25ft tall. I need to tear it down because it's not being used and I need to make warehouse space. It works, and has 2x 12hp compressors that alternate doing their hard work to keep that baby at -10f all day long.

I need a blast freezer capable of freezing hot food relatively quickly (won't get into specifics, but let's say roughly 120 degrees f to frozen in 4 hours).

MY QUESTIONS: (approximate answers are great! I know this stuff gets pretty complicated in the details)

1. Is it possible to repurpose the 2x 12hp compressors and the gigantic evaporator(s)+fans to make a much smaller, walk-in blast freezer? I'm thinking maybe 50-75 square feet or so.
2. Would doing this take skills beyond what an above-average refrigeration tech would have? Assuming I want a pretty primitive setup (turn on until internal temp reaches target temp) with a regular old freezer thermostat.
3. Do blast freezers have any special features to prevent frost from forming on the food surface? I can imagine that blasting food with the giant fans that are on the roof right now will cause an absolute snowstorm in a smaller walk-in space.
