Rationalization of production of new products based on the use of raw materials stored in optimized refrigeration technology

Project implementation location: Fruktus Agros Nova Sp. z o.o. Sp.k., Wąsosz Dolny ul. Traugutta 130, 42-110 Popów

The main objective of the project is to develop and implement innovative technologies of controlled cooling, which will significantly reduce losses of raw materials in the storage process. The project focuses on creating effective technological solutions that will enable precise control of environmental parameters in cold rooms, such as temperature, humidity and air flow. The innovative approach will allow for extending the storage period of raw materials while maintaining their high quality, which will translate into increased production efficiency and reduced operating costs.

 

The effect of the project will be the development of:

  • implementation of controlled cooling technology with precise monitoring of parameters (temperature, humidity).
  • refrigeration installation equipped with a heat recovery system.
  • developed methodology for analyzing the carbon footprint for refrigeration and storage processes.
  • reduction of raw material losses: reduction of losses by minimizing degradation processes (drying, mold, rot).
  • optimization of energy consumption: the project provides for the use of energy-saving heat recovery systems and natural refrigerants (propane R290), which will reduce energy consumption.
  • reduction of greenhouse gas emissions: thanks to the optimized storage process and the use of ecological refrigeration technologies, the project reduces the carbon footprint of the entire production cycle

The project is implemented in a Partnership consisting of Fruktus Agros Nova Sp. z o.o. Sp. k. (Lead Partner) and the Institute of Biotechnology of the Agricultural and Food Industry, State Research Institute.

The project received funding from the Silesian Entrepreneurship Center under the European Funds for Silesia 2021-2027 Program (European Regional Development Fund) for Priority: FESL.01.00 – European Funds for smart growth for Measure: FESL.01.02-Research, development and innovation in enterprises.
