“…A solar refrigerator was developed by a team to process beef and pork in the food processing industries which can reduce the energy utility bill of 12000 pounds per year and it operates with the Coefficient of Performance (COP) of 1.15 [24]. Based on the environmental regulations, researchers from agriculture field started developing biofriendly threshers [25]. Figure 3 Heat exchanger tubes design [26] Figure 4 Project Display [26] 5 …”

The objective of this article is to design and build a bio-friendly air-conditioner, by using adsorption method in the presence of 15% of calcium carbide in water. Aluminum sheet metals are used to form three identical tunnels, to pass the air for processing. Exhaust heat generated from the dairy sterilizing unit process is reutilized, for cooling the environment through this equipment. This equipment is designed, and the analysis is carried out to quantify the COP, SCP, and cooling power. Heat exchangers are designed; its Performance Parameters are quantified and correlated with the conventional designs. It is observed that the new adsorption chiller can produce the coefficient of performance of chiller as 1.068; the Specific cooling power of 10.66 (W/Kg); and the Cooling power of 4.2 KW. This equipment needs 0 to 15 minutes to reach the desired cool breeze (24˚c) from the existing room temperature (29˚c).
