Background

A family of pot makers ​​developed a refrigeration system without electricity, aiming to combat food waste. They initially developed cookers and stoves with high energy efficiency to diversify food-saving methods, later switching to reverse this by trying to refrigerate food. This initiative proved to be a novel way in addressing a lack of access to electricity and to combat food waste in areas that lack affordable preservation methods.
