Reduce Energy Costs with CO₂ and VDH Control
Storage of fruits and vegetables with CO₂ and VDH – Reduce energy costs with CO₂ and VDH Control – Storage Day with cooling consultant Wim Schmitz
Why is the fruit coming out of my storage with this quality? All measuring devices showed nothing unusual, right? Where are the hidden causes of storage errors? What can I learn from this? Every year, those responsible for storage face the same questions. In fruit storage, small mistakes repeatedly have significant impacts. Therefore, every fruit grower asks themselves: What can or should I do before the storage season to improve my storage results? To clarify these issues, we organize a Storage Day with cooling specialist Wim Schmitz!
The main topics are:
Energy savings from a product-physiological viewpoint, product-specific solutions for further energy savings will be presented. Afterwards, the speakers will be available for further questions!
Additional answers to the following questions:
- What's the future for Freon?
- Renewal of compressors, new evaporators, new cooling controls/regulators, energy consumption of various solutions
- How can I reduce my energy consumption? Where are the investment pitfalls?
