Antibacterial Refrigerator, Freezer Produced in Iran by Using Nanotechnology
‘Electro Steel’ company made the refrigerator in which the interior wall of the door contains specific nanoparticles with antibacterial property.
Utilization of oxide nanoparticles in the refrigerator has resulted in heightened superior antibacterial activity.
The nanoparticles can be used in the interior surfaces of refrigerators and freezers.
In a relevant development in October, an Iranian knowledge-based company had also managed to indigenize the technology for manufacturing ultra-low temperature freezers.
Ultra-Low Freezers, also known as Low Temp freezers or ULT Freezers, are designed specifically for laboratories to preserve biological samples. An ultra-low freezer provides stable temperatures from minus 40 Celsius and minus 86 Celsius down to minus 150 Celsius.
Sarkhosh, the managing director of the company, told ANA that the achievement has been made relying on the expertise and knowledge of Iranian experts.
Regarding -86°C ultra-low temperature freezers being manufactured by the company, Sarkhosh said that in line with materializing national goals, boosting domestic production, and creating a competitive atmosphere among Iranian producers, the product has succeeded in meeting the needs of government organizations.
The company has developed an upgraded product with a new technological design. The product is equipped with an enhanced freezing system, enabling it to reach a real temperature of minus 86 Celsius.
