Start year 2009 End year 2012 Funding (€) € 147,800 Website https://www.fhf.no/prosjekter/prosjektbasen/900242/ Summary The project has focused on spreading knowledge about CO₂ technology in the Norwegian refrigeration industry and enabling Norwegian industry to supply commercial facilities with CO₂ as a refrigerant, especially adapted to the conditions on fishing boats.
Through the project, an RSW CO₂ plant has been built and installed in a coastal seine boat. This is the first RSW CO₂ plant for boats built in Norway. The facility has been tested under realistic fishing conditions and has shown good results. Approximately 900 tonnes of capelin are cooled, and even in bad weather conditions such as strong winds, the plant has functioned without operational problems.
Goals:
• To develop a cooling system for cooling seawater, so-called refrigerated sea water (RSW) cooling system, which is specially designed for use on fishing vessels and which has CO₂ as refrigerant. This must be done together with the refrigeration company and component suppliers.
• To spread knowledge about CO₂ technology in the Norwegian refrigeration industry and enable the Norwegian refrigeration industry to supply commercial plants with CO₂ as the refrigerant, especially adapted to the conditions on fishing vessels.
