BIGASTORE: Biogas driven cold storages for Sub Zero applications in India

May 22, 2017

The objective of the proposed project is to design and engineer cold storage container using bio-waste as energy source. Using bio-waste as energy source reduces high losses in food production and storage that is caused due to missing cold storage and cooling chains in developing and emerging countries. Such countries are also affected by a lack of bio-waste treatment and uncontrolled dumping, which highly compromises on the hygiene of the public. As bio-waste and cooling demand often occur at the same time in the food industry (e.g.
