Reefers-Refrigerated Trucking, Rail Cars, Overseas Shipping Containers

CryoGenX4 has a transformative potential for refrigerated (reefer) trailers, rail cars, and shipping containers worldwide. These units are used extensively in the cold chain industry to transport temperature-sensitive goods, making them high energy consumers and significant contributors to carbon emissions.

There are an estimated 4 million refrigerated trucks and trailers, 500,000 refrigerated rail cars, and 1.5 million refrigerated shipping containers in use globally.

Here’s an analysis of CryoGenX4’s potential impact:

Monetary Impact:

Reefer units typically consume significant diesel fuel for cooling, often using about 1,500 to 2,500 gallons of diesel annually.
With CryoGenX4’s 20%-30% reduction in diesel usage, fuel savings per unit could reach:
- Refrigerated Trucks and Trailers: Approximately 300 to 750 gallons saved per unit annually.
- Refrigerated Rail Cars and Shipping Containers: Similar savings of 300 to 750 gallons per unit annually.
Assuming an average diesel cost of $4 per gallon, the estimated savings would be:
- Refrigerated Trucks and Trailers:
  - Total savings between $4.8 billion and $9 billion annually (across 4 million units).
- Refrigerated Rail Cars:
  - Total savings between $600 million and $1.1 billion annually.
- Refrigerated Shipping Containers:
  - Total savings between $1.8 billion and $3.3 billion annually.

Environmental Impact:

Diesel consumption by reefer units contributes to significant greenhouse gas emissions. Each gallon of diesel burned emits approximately 10.2 kg of CO2.
With CryoGenX4, reducing diesel use by 20%-30% translates into major CO2 reductions:
- Refrigerated Trucks and Trailers: Reduction of 12.2 to 30.6 million metric tons of CO2 annually.
- Refrigerated Rail Cars: Reduction of 1.5 to 3.7 million metric tons of CO2 annually.
- Refrigerated Shipping Containers: Reduction of 4.6 to 11.5 million metric tons of CO2 annually.

By adopting CryoGenX4, the cold chain transport industry could realize billions of dollars in fuel cost savings and reduce its environmental impact by millions of metric tons of CO2 each year.

This technology offers a cost-efficient and sustainable solution for companies seeking to reduce operating expenses and carbon footprint, while supporting critical climate goals globally.
