  1. LLOYD INSULATIONS (INDIA) LIMITED MODERN COLD STORE FOR TODAYS COLD CHAIN INDUSTRY

  2. INDIA’S FOOD ECONOMY • India is one of the largest producers of fruits and vegetables in the world. • Inadequate handling infrastructure and methods result in a value-loss of over 30% of all fresh produce. • There is no proper Cold Chain for any Agricultural/Horticultural Products

  3. THE COLD CHAIN • Harvest • Cooling (pre-cooling) • Cold Storage • Transport to market • Handling at Destination • Handling at home or food service

  4. MAINTAINING THE COLD CHAIN FOR PERISHABLES • Protect the product from the sun • Transport quickly to the packinghouse Harvest • Minimize delays before cooling • Cool the product thoroughly as soon as possible Cooling • Keep the product at optimum temperature • Ship to market as soon as possible TemporaryStorage

  10. MODERN COLD STORES FOR TODAYS COLD CHAIN INDUSTRY Cold Stores Plays an Important Role in the Cold Chain

  11. DEFINITION OF A COLD STORE • A ColdStore IS A BUILDING OR A GROUP OF BUILDINGS WITH THERMAL INSULATION AND A REFRIGERATION SYSTEM, IN WHICH PERISHABLE FOODSTUFFS CAN BE STORED FOR VARIOUS LENGTHS OF TIMES IN SET CONDITIONS OF TEMPERATURE, HUMIDITY AND APPROPRIATE ENVIRONMENT TO SLOW DOWN DETERIORATION AND SPOILAGE, WHICH WOULD OCCUR IN A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT.

  12. DEFINITION OF A COLD STORE • A Cold Store may also be defined as a sealed structure the internal volume of which is maintained at a temperature generally below ambient & and other conditions and used for the storage of goods of all types, mainly foods.

  13. DESIGN ASPECTS OF A COLD STORE The design of Cold Stores Stores follows what is known as a ‘Cold Store LOGIC’. The starting point is ‘Product to be stored’. Once the ‘Product’ is identified, it defines the ‘Optimum Storage Conditions’ (Temperature, Humidity and Environment). The ‘Packaging of the product’ both as received and as required at delivery (Handling) determines the type of Racking. The ‘Quantum’ to be handled and Held in Storage outlines the size of the store. The Location and its Ambient conditions then ensure the proper selection of the Five Elements of a Cold Storage.

  14. ELEMENTS OF A COLD STORAGE • The five important elements of a Cold Storage are: • Land &Civil Building • Thermal Insulation (of Structure and Piping) • Refrigeration • Material Storage System (Racks) • Product Handling Techniques • Services (Electricity, Water )

  15. COLD STORE-SPECIFICATIONS THE CONDITIONS OF STORAGE • Normal temperatures of storage • Differential of controls • Duration of storage, by product or category of product • Method of handling the loads (hand truck, pallet truck, fork-lift truck, rail) • Method of stacking ( height of stacks, size of load units) the • produce which may if necessary, be stored together

  16. COLD STORE - SPECIFICATIONS • The Store • Whether it is to be set up in an existing building or a new building is to be constructed • Number of Refrigerated rooms and their configurations • Layout of the store and the machine room • Means of access • Characteristics of pre-existing equipment • Constraints if any • Extensions and future expansions

  17. COLD STORE - SPECIFICATIONS • The Environment • Climate: • External temperatures during 6 hour period ( from 9.00 to 15.00) • Maximum • Minimum • Annual mean • Relative humidity : • Extreme values • Rainfall : • Frequency, • Degree of precipitation

  18. COLD STORE - SPECIFICATIONS • The Resources Available • Energy resources: • nature, power, method of supply • Water resources: • origin ( river, well, sea ) • temperature and flow • chemical composition • presence or absence of mud or sand • Labor resources: • local availability of labor • technical operating and control personnel • handling and general maintenance • personnel

  19. COLD STORE - SPECIFICATIONS Other Specifications: Maximum allowable heat ingress via the walls (5 to 6 W/m2 in frozen and 8 to 10 W/m2 in chill storage as per IIR guidelines) Special requirements of construction (e.g. resistance of the insulation to fire and insects, toxicity of the refrigerant fluid etc.)

  20. NEED FOR EFFECTIVE LOW TEMPERATURE COLD STORAGE IN INDIA. India is a large producer of all kinds of Foods, of both Plant (living) and Animal Origin. India is also classified as having a Warm Tropical type climate for most of the year. With high ambient Temperatures (+35°C) and high humidity conditions, preservation techniques involving low temperature storage are mandatory for slower aging, for extending the Shelf Life and less loss of weight, inhibiting the growth of spoilage organisms, and restricting the development of Toxins.

  21. NEED FOR LOW TEMPERATURE STORAGE (CONTD.) Fresh fruits and vegetables, being ‘living items’, are affected by the conditions under which they are stored and handled. They continuously influence their storage environment by heat of respiration, by gases exchanged (O2, CO2, C2H2), and the effect of Humidity. Correctly Designed and Operated Refrigerated Storage and proper handling Techniques as envisaged in a Cold Chain have a direct influence on quality at point of Sale and therefore the returns from the produce.

  22. CONVENTIONAL COLD STORE • The basic rules for insulation system are : • Using good insulating material having a high insulating value, characterized by a low thermal conductivity • Protection to the insulant against vapour ingress, by providing a Vapour Retarder applied directly to the wall to restrict migration of ambient atmospheric moisture into the cold room interior. Brick wall Final finish Thermal insulation cement plaster Bitumen Vapor barrier Metal mesh • Use an interior lining on insulation essentially to prevent mechanical damage Plaster+Brick+Plaster+VB+Insulation+Finish Approx. 360mm wall LLOYD INSULATIONS INDIA LIMITED

  23. CONVENTIONAL COLD STORES EXISTING SITUATION Insulation Material – Expanded Polystyrene, PUF in 100 – 150mm on walls, fixed between wooden framework, Polythene sheet vapour barrier. Floor Insulation with EPS /PUFslabs – 50-100mm. LLOYD INSULATIONS INDIA LIMITED

  24. EXISTING COLD STORE - PROBLEMS • Moisture ingress thru porous plaster into insulation resulting into cold spots, Algae formation • Ineffective insulation • Improper Storage • Product decay • Unhygienic conditions • More energy consumption due to more compressor running time LLOYD INSULATIONS INDIA LIMITED

  25. EXISTING COLD STORE – PROBLEMS, CONVENTIONAL PRACTICE Sequential application of vapor barrier, insulation & plaster finish What about moisture ingress from inside & life of plaster finish Basic Thermal & Civil Engg. Design problem Brick wall ? Thermal insulation Final finish cement plaster Bitumen Metal mesh Vapor barrier LLOYD INSULATIONS INDIA LIMITED

  26. EXISTING COLD STORE – PROBLEMS CAUSES OF THERMAL INSULATION SYSTEM FAILURE • Continuous moisture ingress through plaster • Insulation becoming wet & resistivity decreases • Plaster chipping off • Vapour barrier becomes weak • Formation of cold spots • Deterioration & failure of Thermal Insulation System 1 % OF MOISTURE INGRESS = 5 % REDUCTION IN ‘R’ VALUE DOUBLE MOISTURE ATTACK LLOYD INSULATIONS INDIA LIMITED

  27. INSULATION LIFE • Insulation needs to be properly fixed to surface • Insulation needs to be covered & protected • Cold Insulation needs vapour barrier on warm side • Cold storage Insulation needs vapour barrier on both sides to counter moisture attack on both sides.
