Refrigeration
Refrigeration is a process that cools and maintains low temperatures in food storage, appliances, and environments. It works by removing heat from a designated area, typically using a refrigerant, which circulates through a closed system. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the interior, turning from a liquid to a gas, and then releases that heat outside when it is compressed back into a liquid. This cycle prevents spoilage, preserves freshness, and enhances comfort in living and working spaces. Refrigeration is essential in the food industry, healthcare, and climate control.
