Wednesday 26 June marked the first ever World Refrigeration Day. Air dispersion expert, Michael G. Mortensen, from the company that invented the fabric-based air dispersion technology, explains in an interview how this innovative solution can address those issues that conventional solutions like steel ducting fail to address.

Industrial cooling is the process of using air to preserve the physiological structure of products under certain temperature and humidity conditions. Many major business sectors depend on cooling and/or refrigeration; therefore the importance of correct air dispersion in applications such as food processing and food storage, as well as medical production and storage cannot be underestimated. In fact, if cooling and/or refrigeration is not performed correctly, the entire production process or batch may be compromised.

Issues include microbial growth, which is closely linked to the formation of condensation and the washability of the air dispersion system. Temperature fluctuation and stale air zones is another huge problem. As is the efficiency of the cooling process itself. All these issues are addressed in the article.
