Zero-emission technology revolution begins trials

A revolutionary zero-emission refrigeration system for transportation applications, developed in the UK, which delivers both power and cooling from liquid nitrogen, has begun on-vehicle testing.

The system, which features a liquid nitrogen powered Dearman engine, has already produced promising results and could ultimately deliver a paradigm shift within the global transport refrigeration industry.

The Dearman system is being tested as part of an Innovate UK backed project – Cool-E – that is managed by a consortium of MIRA, Dearman, Air Products and Loughborough University.

This novel liquid nitrogen powered technology has been developed as a zero-emission alternative to existing highly polluting, fossil-fuelled, transport refrigeration units, which can emit up to six times as much NOx and 29 times as many particulates as a Euro 6 diesel engine.
