Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

Six transport test runs have been carried out with insulated railcars containing frozen foods cooled with an initial charge of liquid CO2 instead of using a mechanical refrigerating unit driven by a diesel engine. The test results have shown that a CO2 cooling system is feasible, both from the economical and technical viewpoints.
