Liquid Nitrogen Based Transportable Refrigeration System- Sheetal Vahak Yantra (SHIVAY-V) for transportation pharmaceutical products (including vaccines) at any temperature, up-to minus 70 °C has been developed. This container has a cargo handling volume of 266cubic feet, and can hold 2 standard pallets. This transportation can be carried out with this refrigerated container mounted on any truck or it can be built on the chassis of any vehicle. It is refrigerated by using liquid nitrogen. This technology has been tailor made for Indian conditions and is aimed at solving issues like high maintenance when travelling on rough roads. The system does not use diesel or CFC for refrigeration and hence is 100% eco-friendly. It generates no pollutant gases or sound, and is economical to use.

1. The system performs the dual job of vaccine storage and transport and thus is a unique product not available in pharmaceutical cold chain.
2. It can store and transport vaccines for about 4 days at 2° to 8° C without refilling of liquid nitrogen in its tank. (ambient temperature is 37°C as highest in the day).
3. Container can be built to any size.
4. During transport system needs no input from vehicle or the driver. Same system can be loaded and transferred on to any carrier like train or truck and is thus, a truly multi modal system. It can also be rested outside hospital building and it keeps working.
5. Only two simple moving parts are used so minimum maintenance is expected.
6. LN2 is highly eco-friendly. It is a by-product of oxygen plants and Spare capacity exists in the country.

1. Storage and transportation of Vaccines up-to minus 70 degree centigrade.
