The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has developed an Indian Standard for ‘non-electric cooling cabinet made of clay’, which is being used to store perishable foods.
The standard is 17693: 2022.
Named as ‘Mitticool refrigerator’, Mansukh Bhai Prajapati from Gujarat is the innovator behind the refrigerator which projects an eco-friendly technology.
BIS standard specifies the construction and performance requirements of a cooling cabinet made out of clay, which operates on the principle of evaporative cooling.
These cabinets may be used to store perishable foodstuff without the need of electricity.
Refrigeration is a food storage technique that prevents bacterial growth, extending the shelf life of the product and making it safe to eat.
