Temperature Control of C02 (Dry Ice), Passive Shipping Container

卡莫森学院与CryoLogistics制冷技术有限公司建立了第一个应用研究合作伙伴关系，该公司正在开发一种被动运输制冷装置，用于在零下温度下运输温度敏感的食品和药品，使用干冰（冷冻二氧化碳）作为冷源。CryoLogistics的托盘规模单元可以很容易地适应现有的食物链运输环境。这个概念已经通过“客户发现”访谈得到了北美行业利益相关者的验证。使用干冰作为集装箱的冷源是一种经济的碳中和技术，随着时间的推移，它将取代目前安装在冷藏卡车上的能源密集型和昂贵的柴油动力制冷装置。该项目将在CryoLogistics的道路上迈出重要的一步，通过开发一种方法，使他们的冷运输集装箱能够具有被动恒温控制，从而提供一致和可控的产品运输温度。

Camosun College is entering into its first applied research partnership with CryoLogistics Refrigeration Technologies Ltd, a company developing a passive transport refrigeration unit for shipping temperature sensitive food and pharmaceutical products at sub-zero temperatures using Dry Ice (frozen CO2) as its cold source. CryoLogistics' pallet-scale unit can fit easily into the existing food-chain shipping environment. The concept has been validated by industry stakeholders across North America by 'customer discovery' interviews. Using Dry Ice as the shipping container's cold source is an economical carbon neutral technology that, with time, will replace the energy intensive and expensive diesel-powered refrigeration units installed into reefer trucks today. This project will add an important step along CryoLogistics' path to providing consistent and controllable product shipping temperatures by developing a means by which their cold shipping containers can have passive thermostatic control.
