12252229 · 2025-03-18 · ·

A transport refrigeration system (TRS) for an enclosed space of a transport unit that includes a ventilation pathway to direct air to flow from the enclosed space. The TRS includes a refrigerant circuit with an evaporator configured to cool the air, and a CO.sub.2 scrubber. The CO.sub.2 scrubber includes a metal organic framework (MOF) configured to adsorb CO.sub.2 from the air in an adsorption mode and is regenerated with ambient air in a regeneration mode. A transport unit includes an enclosed space for storing produce, a ventilation pathway, and a TRS. A method of conditioning an enclosed space of a transport unit includes operating a TRS in a first mode that cools air from the enclosed space and adsorbs, with a MOF in a CO.sub.2 scrubber, CO.sub.2 from the air, and operating the TRS in a second mode that regenerates the MOF with ambient air.

Vented storage for boat

A storage system for a boat includes one or more storage compartments situated in a bow of a boat. An air flow path includes an air inlet opening, the storage compartment, and an air outlet opening. A fan is situated to move air along the air flow path. The fan may be positioned proximate one of the air inlet and the air outlet, for example.

System and method for fumigating a vessel with crew protection

A methods and systems of fumigating a vessel include delivering fumigant to a cargo area of the vessel. In particular, the vessel may be a roll-on/roll-off vessel. In such a system, an air pressure system is provided for maintaining a selected minimum pressure differential between a selected area of the vessel above the cargo area and the cargo area, such that pressure of the selected area is greater than the cargo area. A control system may maintain the pressure differential.
