| General note | Food loss and waste is a global problem, approximately 40 to 50% of fruits and vegetables<br/>are lost annually, exceeding 1.3 billion tons of food globally, with an estimated 750 billion<br/>US dollars wasted yearly. Throughout the stages of cultivation, handling, postharvest, storing, processing, distribution, and consumption, food is lost. A smart cold<br/>storage and reefer container is a sophisticated thermal and relative humidity control system<br/>designed to preserve and effectively use perishable food products. Due to no proper postharvest and transportation management, we are not losing the quantity, but we are also<br/>affected by losing nutritional quality of vegetables and fruits. The present study focused on<br/>reducing post-harvest loss of fruits and vegetables, more specifically on tomatoes during<br/>storing and transportation by providing an energy efficient small size solar powered smart<br/>cold storage solution with real time remote control of temperature and relative humidity.<br/>Solar panels are installed on the roof and walls of cold storage boxes for power generation<br/>during peak hours and batteries are installed for backup during low solar hours. The cooling<br/>is achieved by Vapor compression cycle. The temperature and percent relative humidity<br/>are set by a mobile app and are controlled by microcontroller. The cold storage box can be<br/>placed in ambient and can also be fixed in a vehicle for transportation as reefer container.<br/>The cold storage box includes both hardware and software parts, this IoT based control<br/>system is tested on a 110 liters DC chest freezer. The modeling of the temperature and<br/>relative humidity distribution inside cold storage walls was done using computational fluid<br/>dynamics (CFD). |
