Climate change is a problem, food waste is a problem, the decreasing economic prospects of local family farms is a problem, and the inequality of the supply of produce into urban food deserts is a problem. This system uses C02 captured from tailpipe and smokestacks to reduce the carbon footprint of the refrigerated cold chain and supply produce to areas that lack access to refrigeration. Through repeated iteration and measurement, lots of effort lugging heavy coolers and CO2 tanks around and even the accidental carbonation of produce items, we’ve found a way to use -109.3 degree dry ice to pre-cool produce and maintain temperatures for weeks to months without the CryoLite cooler being plugged in. This system is key to linking our local family farms to urban food deserts to provide produce at affordable prices that would otherwise go un-harvested or be sold for processing.
