ICR2015: A stimulating environment for dynamic exchanges

With a focus on improving standards and the quality of life of many worldwide, as well as emphasising the importance of preserving the earth through the advancement of refrigeration applications and technology, ICR2015 is expected to attract a large number of refrigeration professionals from over 60 different countries.
Recognised internationally as a milestone refrigeration event, from 16 to 22 August 2015, the International Congress of Refrigeration (ICR) will bring together key refrigeration stakeholders from across the globe at the Pacifico Yokohama convention centre in Japan.

 

 

At ICR2015 these stakeholders from all sectors and all levels will share their knowledge and research to promote more energy efficient and environmentally friendly solutions for the refrigeration sector.

 

 

A stimulating environment for dynamic exchanges

 

 

Quality workshops are pivotal to the ICR programme and this year’s selection covers a wide range of designs, the demonstrations, and application of techniques.

 

 

Through presentations and round table discussions with audience participation, these workshops create a stimulating environment for dynamic exchanges on cutting-edge topics.

 

 

Some of the 11 workshops already scheduled are:

 

 

  • DataBase and Simulation Tools for refrigeration on cold chain: Frisbee Database and Tools Time Length
  • Magnetic Refrigeration: Materials & Systems for Commercialization
  • “Environmentally Low Impact Cooling Technology” (ELICiT) EU Project
  • Current global status of transition to lower GWP alternatives by laws and regulations
  • IIR Working Party on Life Cycle Climate Performance Evaluation
  • Evaluating Low-GWP Refrigerants for Air-Conditioning Industry in High Ambient Temperature Countries
  • Heating and Power From Low Temperature Heat

 

Each workshop lasts approximately 100 minutes and consists of a panel of experts from the refrigeration field.

About the ICR

 

IIR International Congresses of Refrigeration (ICR) are milestone events. Since 1908, a congress has been held once every 4 years uniting refrigeration stakeholders from every corner of the world.

 

A place where dialogue and discussions on important technical issues happen, the ICR is known as a platform for in depth exchange and analysis that covers all aspects of refrigeration.

 

 

About JSRAE

 

In 1925, the Japan Society of Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers, JSRAE, was established to develop and disseminate knowledge nationally and internationally on refrigerating and freezing technology together with related scientific technologies. For over 45 years, it has functioned as a non-profit academic organization in the field of refrigeration.
