Summary

The aim of this brochure, produced in the framework of the Thermie Programme Action for The European Commission, is to describe energy saving technologies (for condensers, evaporators, compressors and insulation) which can be applied to refrigeration systems in the agrofood industry. Aspects such as computer control of refrigeration consumption and production, cold accumulation technologies, electronic ultrasonic humidifiers, energy recovery from condensers and heat pumps and refrigeration using absorption systems are studied. Case studies of different agrofood factories are given.
