SARTHI System

Kumari Sonali

SARTHI System:

The National Institute of Food Technology Entrepreneurship and Management, Kundli (NIFTEM-K) has introduced Solar Assisted Reefer Transportation with Hybrid Controls and Intelligence (SARTHI) system.

  • It is an innovative solution to reduce post-harvest losses in perishable food transportation.
  • It features dual compartments designed to store fruits and vegetables at different temperatures, addressing their unique storage needs.
  • It is an integration of IoT and real-time monitoring.
  • The data acquired from the sensors is integrated with IoT (Internet of Things) and sent to the cloud which can be downloaded using a mobile app for getting a real time information about the quality parameters and physiological changes occurring during transportation of fresh fruits and vegetables.
  • Its sensors measure temperature, humidity, ethylene, and CO2 levels, sending data to a mobile app for quality assessment.
  • The system also includes a solar-powered air handling unit that ensures temperature control during halts.
