Abstract

Freezers and dry ice are used for the cold supply-chain. In storage devices, besides dry ice, the phase change materials (PCMs) are involved too. A PCM is a substance absorbing and releasing energy at phase transition. The substance is therefore useful for heating and cooling applications. Here we review some facts about the use of freezers, dry-ice and PCMs for equipment in the Ultra Low Temperature Logistics.
