INCORPORATING COLD CHAIN
PROJECT
Incorporating the next generation of permanent magnet compressors for
CO 2 applications with outstanding eco-efficiency to achieve new levels of energy efficiency , along with the mechanical capacity control , which is also new for transcritical CO 2 applications , system efficiency increases considerably , in full and part-load operation , was a direct requirement of the client .
UNIQUE ELEMENTS
Having the biggest transcritical CO 2 refrigeration installation in Africa is already top of the uniqueness scale for the project , and speculatively this facility has one of the biggest CO 2
installations in the world ( verification of this is not possible ).
Another unique element is that the facility can handle both fresh fruit and out-of-season fruit , and can switch over room-by-room to frozen storage and reach temperatures of -25 ° C quite easily and quickly . Multi temperature facilities such as this are very rare , in fact , the facility can service all perishable products across the range .
This facility has been designed by Dos Anjos , bringing many years of practical experience and knowledge of the industry , to make it operationally as easy and user friendly as possible , to ensure optimal quality of the clients ’ precious product .
