A depressurization and cooling system for steam and/or condensable gases located in a containment. The system contains a steam condenser having an upstream port connected to the containment through an exhaust line and a downstream port connected to the containment through a backfeed line. The backfeed line contains a backfeed compressor. A re-cooling system for re-cooling the steam condenser is provided. The depressurization and cooling system is effective for re-cooling of the steam condenser. Accordingly, this is achieved as the re-cooling system is self-sustainable.

A refrigerated food storage box has been disclosed. This refrigerated food storage box has an inner box comprising a set of inner walls and an inner base, together enclosing a food storage compartment. There is also an outer box comprising a set of outer walls and an outer base, wherein each outer wall is located at a predetermined distance from a corresponding inner wall and the outer base is located at the predetermined distance from the inner base, thereby creating a thermal cavity between the inner box and the outer box. There is at least one plate-type heat exchanger located within the thermal cavity, wherein each plate-type heat exchanger having a hollow cavity therein. Note that the hollow cavity capable of receiving temperature controlled air from a refrigeration unit, thereby capable of altering the temperature inside the food storage compartment.

A heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (“HVAC”) system for use with a refrigerant. The HVAC system includes a compressor, a condenser, an expansion device, an evaporator, and a separator. The compressor is operable to compress the refrigerant. The condenser is positioned downstream of the compressor and operable to condense the refrigerant. The expansion device is positioned downstream of the condenser and operable to reduce a pressure of the refrigerant flowing therethrough. The evaporator is positioned downstream of the expansion device and operable to vaporize the refrigerant from the expansion device. The separator is positioned downstream of the expansion device and operable to separate the refrigerant into liquid refrigerant and gaseous refrigerant. The gaseous refrigerant from the separator and the liquid refrigerant from the separator are combined prior to being compressed by the compressor.
