Summary

To ensure wellbeing for each of us is a first necessity for peace and development of society while preserving the environmental balance of the blue planet. Today’s society is faced with major challenges such as the supply of energy, water, food, etc. Refrigeration is an important factor in the modern world. It is vital before life (sperm banks), for life (conversation food, medicine), and after life (preservation of human organs and tissues). However the negative impact of refrigeration on the environment is visible and, consequently, refrigeration systems are subject to prescriptive regulation. This regulation provides a great opportunity for the emergence of new refrigeration technologies and new product markets. In recent years, magnetic refrigeration is considered as a serious alternative for conventional systems. Today proof of the concept is established. Therefore, what remains is to provide systems for the society.
